Background[]

Bethel Music en Español is the first album by Bethel Music to be recorded in Spanish as well as the first album by the collective to be recorded in a language other than English.[5] The album is a collection of previously released Bethel Music songs.[6]

Artwork[]

Stephen James Hart, the Art Director and Visual Worship Leader for Bethel Music, shared on his blog the story of the album artwork for Bethel Music en Español.[7] The final album cover is a photograph of Melissa Helser leading worship live with the type encased in boxes alluding to the cover design era of the 1990s and 2000s. The concept captures the legacy of revival and worship in Latin America as well as the essence of Bethel Music's worship, which is "the Spirit of God flowing through our offering of surrender, all centred around Jesus and the cross."[7]

Release and promotion[]

Bethel Music began teasing the album on social media in September 2018. A short video cip titled Bethel Music en Español which shows Steffany Gretzinger singing the song "Pieces" in Spanish was published on Bethel Music's YouTube channel.[8] An Instagram account with the same name was launched, with images of Spanish titles for previously released Bethel Music songs and additional video teasers being uploaded there.[9] On February 1, 2019, Bethel Music launched the album pre-order with the release of three promotional singles:[10] "Por Siempre" featuring Kalley Heiligenthal;[11] "Promesas No Fallarán" featuring Christine D'Clario;[12] and "Mi Esperanza Está en Jesús" featuring Bethany Wohrle.[13] The album was slated for release on February 15, 2019.[14]
