Sarah Kroger Releases “The Gardener”

Sarah Kroger introduces "The Gardener," the third deluxe single and bonus track from her recent album A New Reality. The new release comes out of John 15 and is a sung prayer for pruning and for growth. Yet, its gentle melody and Kroger's ethereal vocals underline a sense of fearlessness permeating the process.

"The Gardener" reminds listeners that God's fundamental goodness makes pruning a source of joy and relief, but not of harm. Heartfelt and intimate, the new song moves through its scriptural inspiration and weaves in Galatians 5, the well-known passage on the fruit of the Spirit. "The Gardener" shines with the hope that good fruit shall grow out of remaining in Christ and letting God cultivate our lives.
Kroger is a GMA Dove Award®-nominated artist, songwriter, and worship leader. With her previously released albums Your Time (2011), Hallelujah Is Our Song (2013), Bloom (2019), Light (2020), and London Sessions (2023), her latest project, A New Reality, came out in May 2024 (Integrity Music).
With parents involved in worship ministry, Kroger's love for music was sparked at a young age, but the impact of bullying coupled with her struggle with anxiety and shyness hid her musical talents for years. Everything changed when she met Jesus in an intimate encounter through worship at a youth conference; "Worship became my language with God," she explains. "It allowed me to communicate with the Lord in a way I hadn't experienced before...it opened my heart."
Realizing music was a gift she desired to give back to the Lord, she began leading worship around the world, drawing people from a variety of cultures and church backgrounds under the banner of Jesus. With a passion for creating a safe and prayerful space through her music, her focus has always been an authentic portrayal of her relationship with God.
With A New Reality, it is her hope that people will come away knowing that it's ok to question, to pull on the string and enable the unraveling to happen, knowing there is One who is gently mending the tangled threads back together into a beautiful, reconstructed tapestry.
