"Reckless Love" was nominated for Best Contemporary Christian Music Performance/Song in the 2019 Grammy Awards.

Asbury began leading worship at his local church when he was seventeen years old. After Asbury finished high school at Franklin High School in Franklin, North Carolina in 2004, he considered studying at UNC Chapel Hill, but his friends who graduated from the Onething internship with International House of Prayer (IHOPKC) in Kansas City persuaded Asbury to attend IHOPKC instead, so Asbury began his internship at IHOPKC on January 1, 2005, where he started his musical career.
