Special guests for the tour will be Brandon Heath and Jon McLaughlin.
The tour begins Sept. 28. The tour namesake is the band's current radio single that is No. 2 on the National Christian Audience chart from their most recent album “Followers,” according to a news release.
The single "I Have This Hope" is a ballad written during a time of personal uncertainty in Tenth Avenue North guitarist's Jeff Owen’s life. His sister-in-law, a 32-year-old mother of three, was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer. She began chemo treatments in February 2016 just as the band first began writing for “Followers.” Rooted in Isaiah 43, “I Have This Hope" was penned in her honor, according to the release.
Two and a half months after the song was written, when the band entered the studio to record the song, Owen’s brother and sister-in-law received the news that her cancer was in remission.
The song has been making an impact on the radio this year as it is a Top 5 single on three radio charts in addition to being heard in front of thousands of fans during the 2017 Winter Jam Tour that the band was part of during January through April, the release states.
