Branson GMC is a new Southern Gospel gathering that will take place in July of 2009 in one of the most popular family vacation spots in the country. It will include daily showcases, an exhibition hall filled with artists, and nightly concerts during a Tuesday-Friday timeframe I just had my first one on one interview time with Bill Gaither. I must say that all of the rumors are true. He is very warm, personable, and just plain easy to talk to. This is Bill Gaither, the man who has written so many songs that have touched the hearts of people around the world The Southern Styles Show is now celebrating its 15th year. " I had no background prior to this. I had been to a few concerts, but didn't know what is was. I fell in love with the music from the first show." This new recording is very special to me. I took almost two years on it. I co-wrote most of the songs so I was a lot more involved. I had never written songs for the other two recordings. Dad and I produced the whole thing by ourselves this go around. That might be why it took two years also. This recording is very deep lyrically Click on an image to change Feature Article

 This month we take a look at the life and career of a gospel music artist who knew early on what he was called to do, and whose life and career were a logical application of that calling, and in so following that calling has blessed scores and scores of people
 Enjoy as some of your favorite artists share their favorite past, present and future Christmas memories
 There is one thing that happens to each of us just one time a year, and that's our Birthday. I just had mine this month, and it never fails, every year just like clock work, I am struck with the same question. "What am I doing with my life?"
 We can discuss all the things that are wrong with SGM. Everybody in America can write articles ranting and raving about this, that or the other. But nothing will ever change until the artists take control of their own destiny
 How many times have we heard some athlete or celebrity herald this caveat in an attempt to explain why they were injured in a game, cut from the team, not re-signed to a contract, dumped from their TV role or some other equally unpleasant situation?
 Much has been said and written about vocal blend, but very little has been said about how to obtain it. We have all known groups through the years, who have a wonderful harmony and blend, and there are others we can recall, who have little blend at all
 I just love cooking. I love watching Martha Stewart. I dream of being so organized “when I grow up” and think it must be true when she says something is “a good thing”. I also love to watch shows on the Food Network and fell in love with Paula Dean the first time I heard her southern voice
 After those things that sing in nature, I listed some beings that sing before God, and for God, to bless Him and all who hear them. I want to talk a little bit about two scriptures where beings sing for God, and what these scriptures mean to you and I

The Inspirations
 Those who know me well know that I love setting goals. I’ve studied the art and science of taking a large dream and breaking it down into doable chunks. I follow the rules of setting a timeline, giving myself rewards, and sharing my goals with others to keep me accountable
 Last month we told you of the years in which Adam and I pretended to be fine; all the while our marriage was falling apart. This month, I would like to tell you my personal story. I'm Kathy Glover. Adam and I have been married 14 years, blessed with four children with one on the way
 It is a time of rejoicing as we step into a fresh new year. It was a lot of fun here in West Virginia just kicking back with family and friends, sharing our favorite Christmas stories, and enjoying an endless array of Christmas goodies
 I heard years ago David Ring ask, “Why do bad things happen to good people?” I have thought a lot about that and I want to ask a similar, yet different, question. Maybe you have asked the same question. Why am I going through this, God?
 As we reflect on 2008 we realize that we have witnessed first hand the fact that God is still performing miracles today. This was never more evident to us than when we learned that our very dear friend George Curnutte was diagnosed with stage 4 melanoma cancer in November.
 After being home for several weeks now, and taking advantage of not only the home cooked meals but also the homemade deserts we need to get back out on the road to drop those extra pounds that always accumulate!
 New. It’s an interesting word. We hear it everyday, yet do we really know what it means? My best friend’s daughter just had a new baby. (As opposed to those OLD babies we see lying around.) My daughter Jamie bought a new Mazda
 It is a very scary thing to not know what is going to happen next when you know the next move you make could change your life forever. However, that is why we have a friend in Jesus
