God and a Girl

God and a Girl is the second release and debut full-length album by Christian artist/songwriter Joy Whitlock, released on Ardent Records. The album contains 14 tracks, four of which were on her The Fake EP released in 2005. The album title comes from the theme of Whitlock's conversations with God throughout each song. Some are written from her perspective towards God, others from God's perspective towards her. As on her EP, strings of struggle, pain, doubt, and redemption are woven throughout the album. "Holding on to Me" was released as the first single off the album, garnering some radio play on Christian stations in the U.S.
