biography
Kari Jobe grew up in a Christian family, her father traveled a lot as a clergyman and she came into contact with church music at an early age. She later studied psychology and theology in Oklahoma and Dallas . There she became a member of Texas' Gateway Church in Southlake near Fort Worth in 2006 as a co-pastor.
She has been married to Cody Carnes since 2014, and their first child, a boy, was born in 2016.
As early as 2003 she made her own music and made her own recordings. At the Gateway Church she was then a member of the Gateway Worship , which provided the music for the church services and made successful recordings even beyond Texas. In 2009 Kari Jobe released her first official solo album under her own name and reached number 3 on the Christian album charts. Several songs also made it onto the Christian song charts. In 2010 she received two Dove Awards , one for the Spanish version of the debut album, and was nominated for best newcomer.
Her second album Where I Find You followed two years later , with which she took first place on the Christian Albums for the first time and entered the top ten of the official album charts . The Spanish version Donde te encuentro made it into the top ten of the Latin Charts. With We Are , the album also contained their first Christian top ten song.
On her next album, she did not record her new songs in the studio, but played them live with an accompanying choir and musicians. Majestic was released in 2014 and was their second number one album. For this she received another Dove Award for Praise and Worship Album of the Year . With Forever she had her biggest single hit to date (6th place in the Hot Christian Songs).
