Hendersonville, Tenn. (April 10, 2023) – Popular Christian artist and singer-songwriter Tasha Layton released her first trade book on April 21st, “Look What You’ve Done: The Lies We Believe & The Truth That Sets Us Free” (K-LOVE Books). She celebrated the book’s release day with a book signing at the Barnes & Noble store in Hendersonville, Tennessee, near her hometown of Franklin, Tennessee.
When she arrived at the store, Layton was greeted by a line of fans and followers that had already formed. Layton signed books and took photos with a full crowd of fans who attended the signing throughout the evening. The book’s release marks the end of a successful pre-order campaign, where K-LOVE Books offered the audiobook, read by Tasha, to all who purchased the book from any retailer.
“Look What You’ve Done” is a diverse collection of stories and intimate self-reflections to encourage readers to follow where God leads them, with the foreword penned by bestselling author Bob Goff. Inspired by her powerful hit song of the same title, the book delves into Tasha’s journey of finding freedom in Jesus through life’s twists and turns. Tasha takes readers through her early days in small town South Carolina, to her big breakthrough as background singer on stage with Katy Perry, to the mission field in Kenya and beyond. Across many countries and all her days, the truest constant in Tasha’s life has been the presence of God in both the highs and the lows.
“When I set out to write this book, I wanted to talk about what God had done in my life. Though I didn’t even know it during my years of wandering, God was busy writing a beautiful story for me—and I am confident that God has an amazing adventure planned for each and every soul,” Layton said. “This book is not a how-to guide or a manual for living. What it is, however, is an example of a journey with all its challenges and triumphs. I like to think of it as bits and pieces of wisdom about navigating our paths while looking to God for direction. We learn about ourselves and God through every mountain and every valley.”
“It has been encouraging to see how God has used Tasha and her story. She has had a full music career leading worship in churches, appearing on American Idol, touring the world with Katy Perry, and her pursuit of truth, to ultimately finding Jesus,” said Dave Schroeder, Publisher of K-LOVE Books. “Like her amazing voice, Tasha’s heart is big and on a mission to help her readers to address the lies they believe and ultimately point them to the truth.” Layton just wrapped up the Hits Deep Tour with TobyMac and others and has a full schedule of shows and women’s ministry events throughout the year where she will continue promoting the book.
