Adventist Health Tillamook is excited to announce a special musical event featuring GRAMMY®️ and Billboard Music Award nominee, Dove and ASCAP Christian Music Award winner, Ryan Stevenson. The free concert will take place on Sunday, June 16, at the Tillamook Seventh-day Adventist Church, located at 2610 1st St., starting at 7 p.m., with doors opening at 6 p.m. Eric Swanson, President of Adventist Health Tillamook, shared his enthusiasm for the event, stating, “We are deeply honored to have Ryan in Tillamook and look forward to offering this family-friendly, free event for our community.”

Ryan Stevenson’s music, known for its hopeful and encouraging messages, has achieved six #1 billboard charting radio singles. He has toured with top artists such as TobyMac, MercyMe, and Newsboys. Since 2020, Stevenson has headlined intimate concerts in churches, theaters, and homes, playing over 170 shows to 34,000 fans, while sharing his deeply personal songs and stories. Recently, Ryan released his new single, “Just as You Are,” turning heads with its undeniably infectious groove. Released on Friday, the single finds Stevenson entering a new era of creative freedom.

Produced by Christopher Stevens (TobyMac, Crowder), who also co-wrote the song with Stevenson, “Just as You Are” captures a defining moment in Stevenson’s faith journey. Stevenson shared the inspiration behind the song, quoting one of his favorite authors, Brennan Manning: “God loves you, just as you are, not as you should be; because none of us are as we should be.” Stevenson added, “This is the music I've wanted to put out for 12 years, and I finally feel the release to do it! Creating music that not only has an amazing feel but also a deep, meaningful message is a joy.” In addition to his musical achievements, Ryan is an author. His book, “Eye of the Storm: Experiencing God When You Can’t See Him,” details his journey from farm boy to singer-songwriter, sharing life events that have shaped his relationship with God.
