How many times do we say things and behave in ways that are selfish and short-sighted? The Lord has a plan for your life. He knows your strengths and your weaknesses and has planned your perfect path.


GOD IS ABSOLUTELY SURE ABOUT OUR DOUBLE CURE

image
The Bible, states and restates that Christ’s suffering as God’s sacrificial Lamb at Pilate’s Judgment Hall, followed by His death, burial, resurrection and ascension provided the “Double Cure” for humanity’s sin and sickness problems


Radio Airplay and Performance Royalties

image
Radio airplay is the primary marketing outlet for gospel music. Stations pay for licenses from ASCAP, BMI, and SESAC and the proceeds are distributed to the songwriters and publishers. However, artists and labels have never been paid a performance royalty for over-the-air broadcasts


Taking Time To Relax

image
We are smack dab in the middle of the infamous “rat race” and some days, it’s getting the best of us! On more than one occasion, we’ve felt worn out and a little overwhelmed at our schedules and all the while, we were promising ourselves we’d slow down, soon

He Sang For His Own Funeral

image
In my opinion, if Dianne Wilkinson accidently cut her finger she would bleed Southern Gospel music. “It is very dear to my heart”, she told me. She also loves her church, Springhill Baptist Church, in Dyersburg, Tennessee, pastored by her brother, James Branscum


Southern Gospel’s Dirty Word

image
Bands and live music were not what made this music so popular. This genre has NEVER been based on the band. It's always been based on vocals and harmony. Why do you think that we called them "All Night Sings" for years?


Gifts of Love

image
The family was always doing whatever they could to stretch a dollar and that meant that there wasn’t much money to spend on gifts or things that might be called frivolous. In the midst of this money crunch, Jim’s dad still wanted to do nice things for his wif
