ABOUT LOVE IS ON THE MOVE
GRAMMY-nominated progressive rock act Leeland has been known to deliver songwriting beyond its years and worshipful rock so genuine it disarms the honest cynic. Often quoted as one of Christian music’s most gripping live bands, the 2006 debut Sound of Melodies and 2008’s Opposite Way quickly established Leeland as a leader in the worship community and beyond. While both previous albums were GRAMMY nominated and drew a combined eight Dove nominations, Leeland’s measure of success has always been the human heart. And now Leeland’s third album, Love Is On The Move is a landmark in the deepest sense.
“During the past year, God has caused a total shift in our thinking and the way we approach our ministry,” says Leeland keyboardist Jack Mooring. His brother, the band’s principal songwriter, lead singer and guitarist, Leeland Mooring begins to explain, “For awhile, we were just this band from Baytown, Texas, and all we saw was our little church where God had been doing awesome and incredible things. But He’s really been opening our vision to all the hurting people, especially the poor, around the world and making it clear we should help by being a part of spreading His kingdom.” Leeland goes on to quote from 1 John 3:18, “Let us not love with words or tongue but with actions... [NIV],” and he profoundly states: “If we’re not loving people, then we’re just making a bunch of noise.” That’s quite a statement coming from a leader who’s influencing a new generation of worshipers. And that’s precisely the point. “We don’t want to sing another song if we’re not taking care of the poor. If we’re not being the hands and feet of Jesus, we might as well just stop making records and go home,” says Jack.
This very idea is the heart behind Leeland’s new project. With passion and conviction Leeland has transformed its sound into a call to action; asking followers of Christ to be the hands and feet of God.
“Worship, justice and action are not separate,” explains 21-year-old Leeland. “They are united. They work together. When you have an amazing encounter with God and you experience His love during worship, the fruit of that should be your life overflowing with action and love – justice – to the world around you. ... That’s why Jesus said [in Matthew 25] on the Day of Judgment people will say, ‘God, when did I ever see you naked, or hungry, or thirsty or in jail?’ And He’ll say, ‘Whatever you did for the least of these, you did for me,” and to others God will say, “Whatever you did not do for the least of these, you did not do for Me.'”
Glorify God for your life. His music and worship to Jesus are beautiful. May God bless the ministry more of You And many lives to surrender to Jesus through their lives. Forgive my English. lol

It was so great to have met you tonight in Vidor, you guys are wonderful and amazing! Thank you guys so much! Thank you for taking a second to take your picture with my friends and me and for signing my shirt, I just hope the marker doesn't wash out! : ) I think my favorite song by you guys is Sound of Melodies, but I LOVE Count Me In!!! Hope you see you again soon!!!
Hi The band Leeland is awesome You really changed my life. A lot of people need you here in phenix or near phoenix im pretty sure you will change people lives because we need someone that can make us feel god . Please come
well this is REALLY late but i just saw your video on Leelandonline. I just wanted to say when you guys came to the Woodlands for the FOLLOW YOU TOUR, i saw you guys. Everyone, Leeland, Brandon, Francesca were an inspiration to me. When I got home, I texted my friend to see if he'd like to play "Yes You Have" and we did, we did so-so, but we did our best. Thanks for the inspiration, AND playing "Yes You Have" on our Fall Festival, a couple of friends and I have made a band (somewhat) even though we can't play on Christmas, we're trying our best to play on New Years when our church meets for New Years. :DDDD
This is truly inspirational music and each time I hear it I'm reminded of how lucky my Family truly is. There is much negativity running rampant here yet - once you hear and see things clearly through God's love, nothing else matters =]
Thank you Leeland for sharing such beautiful work in the Lord's name!
My mom teaches this spinning class early on Sunday mornings and she has to make music mix CDs to play in the class. I showed her your song "Sound of Melodies" and she loved it. So she used it as her either last song or second to last song on the CD. She said the people in the class loved it! I just wanted to let you know. And I've decided that you guys need to come back to New York/New Jersey/Connecticut either is cool. Haha. =)
okay, okay - I just found out that you guys are gonna be touring with Phil Wickham in 2010! THIS is totally my dream tour and it's coming true!! ah! I'm so happy!!!!! You better make a stop in Dallas!!! =D God Bless!
Hello, I'm from L.A., but I'm living in South Korea. I downloaded Love is on the Move. I've found it to be another good recording, uplifting, and inspiring. Leeland, I can sense your heart behind the words. That's why I like your band. You guys are for real and you mean what you say.
Hey Leeland hope all is well....your music is awesome!!! You were amazing when I saw you in Columbus, Ohio in February at the Dare 2 Share conference. I hope I can see you next time your in ohio.
So I've been a fan of you guys for a few years now and had no idea this latest album was out until I heard Follow You on the radio. I spent my whole night in worship in prayer. There is such an anointing in your music and I'm at loss for words. God is awesome! I can't wait to purchase this album. How truly inspiring and what a blessing it is to see a music group acting out so much in their faith. GO GOD! :)

hello... How are you? I am happy that Leeland will come here for Brazil. I hope for you here in 2010 and it will be a great pleasure to receive this Ministry Leeland here in Brazil.
On Sunday one of the elders in my church preached from 2 Samuel 9 the whole time I was singing Carried to the Table in my head, then at the end of the service one of the members came out and played piano/ sang that song.I was ecstatic and Ive been singing it in my head ever since!!!
I love the fact that you are a "mission" minded ministry willing to spread the love of God across the street and around the world! Honestly, That's what it's all about guys! :)
