After All These Years is the first studio album from Brian & Jenn Johnson, and their fourth album overall. The album was released on January 27, 2017 by Bethel Music. The duo worked with Jason Ingram and Paul Mabury in the production of the album.
Brian and Jenn Johnson, after a hiatus of more than ten years as a duo, announced on January 13, 2017 that their album would be released on January 27, 2017. The Johnsons, having been worship pastors and songwriters at Bethel Church for over fifteen years, in addition to composing and recording songs for Bethel Music, also released Undone in 2001 and We Believe in 2006. The musical style of the album is different from previous Bethel Music releases in that an 80-piece symphony orchestra is featured on all tracks of the album. In a statement by the Johnsons on The Media Collective, they said:

Community, family, and carrying His [Jesus Christ's] name – that is the kingdom – and that is for every believer."
Brian Johnson had an interview with Sharefaith Magazine about the album and his worship ministry. He shared his personal story about overcoming a nervous breakdown through devotion to studying scripture and worship, telling that a demo of the song "Greater Than All Other Names" by Jason Ingram helped him, saying: "I listened to that song on repeat every day for six months straight, it really ministered to me." In the duo's interview with Doug Doppler of Worship Musician magazine, he went on to say about "Greater Than All Other Names" that for the rest of his life "there probably won’t be a song in my iTunes music library that will have as many plays as that one." In the same interview, Jenn Johnson was asked about the story behind "Mention of Your Name", to which she responded saying:
