Pop artist and songwriter-Dove Award-winning RIAA Gold® performer Jordan Feliz was inspired by his first daughter, Jolie, to write and record “Beloved“, the title track from his debut album released in 2015. The song went on to encourage millions of listeners around the world, including renowned children’s author Jes Woller and illustrator Hilary Griffithwho combine their talents for the hardcover children’s book, Beloved, out today (September 20) via Music Centricity in collaboration with Callawind Book Publishing. The book is now available to order from https://jordanfeliz.com/belovedbook.
Written by Woller, edited by Centricity Music Director of Marketing and Communications, Kory Henkeland beautifully illustrated by Griffith, this valuable 24-page read-aloud storybook for children ages two to six teaches young children to find their worth not in the things of this world, but rather in the love of Jesus.
“Pretty, my love. “Beloved” started as a reminder for you. A telling of the simple truth that you are loved and cherished by the creator of the universe,” Feliz tells his real-life daughter. “It is my deepest desire that you never forget that it is in Him that your worth is found. Now this is a prayer we can proclaim over our entire family and the world!
“I pray that everyone who reads this book will remember God’s love for them and that their identity in Him will be stronger,” Feliz continues.
Beloved tells the story of a little girl, aptly named Jolie, who spends a day at the beach with her father. Her father, who looks remarkably like the author of the song “Beloved” in the picture book, tells his daughter that she is “beloved.” Jolie spends the fun day wondering the meaning of the word and how she can continue to be loved by her daddy. Tucking her into bed at the end of the day, her father reveals that she will always be loved by him and her mom, and even more so by Jesus, and continues to share with his daughter the hope-filled message that she appreciate as a child of God.
“It was such a privilege to work on this project and provide a reminder to children that they are loved and cherished, regardless of circumstances or their own efforts,” says Woller. “Beloved is a beautiful song, and my prayer is that this book can further highlight how God values us and how deeply loved each of us is. »
“We loved the song ‘Beloved’ from the first time we heard it,” adds Henkel. “We knew it was a special story and we wanted to give it new life and relevance even seven years after it was first released. Jes wrote such a beautiful manuscript and Hilary brought it to life in a remarkable way. We are very proud of who Jordan is, not just as an artist, but as a father. We are thrilled to be able to bring this special song to life in a unique way.
