Hey Everyone! HAPPY SPRING! It is a thrill to get to write our very first Artist Article on SoGospelNews! We enjoy the website so much! It's great to get to be a little part of it!

We have had a tremendously blessed year and each month I would love to give you a little peak into what God is doing! I will never forget last summer when we toured with LIFT Student Ministries. There was a speaker named Tony Nolan. He was funny, interesting, and completely focused on what God was doing. He shared lots of amazing testimonies and every time he began to wrap up he said two words..."GO GOD!" I loved that! That is exactly what it is all about. So this morning, as I began my quiet time with God, He brought me directly to an amazing scripture about sharing the awesome things He has done! It's in 1 John where John tells us that testifying to one another about what God has done is a recipe for bringing JOY to our lives!

1 John 1:3-4 That which we have seen and heard declare we unto you, that ye also may have fellowship with us: and truly our fellowship is with the Father, and with His Son Jesus Christ. And these things write I to you that your joy may be full.

WOW! Can you imagine what life would be like if we spent everyday talking about what God is doing? It would surely ward off alot of fear and discouragement! There is nothing but HOPE in the things of GOD!

Speaking of the things of GOD, we are absolutely blown away by what God is doing through the song we recently sent to radio called, "You are Loved." We knew as we sang it live, God was really using the message to minister to the hearts of people. It didn't take long for us to realize what an overwhelming need people have to hear that someone LOVES them unconditionally and forever! So, we sent the song to radio and God has taken it from there. We have received emails from people testifying how God has used this song in their lives and just as that scripture says...It brings us TONS of JOY!

One lady wrote that she honestly was on the verge of giving up. She had even tried to take her own life. But one day she heard "You Are Loved" and realized her life was important to God and that He loves her so much. She shared that the song touched her and she has made a turn for the better. Please just lift her up in prayer. God knows her name.

Here is a portion of another email we recently received: "HELLO, You do not know me by name, but I am emailing you with "hope." I recently heard your song "You Are Loved", and I was so overwhelmed by the words and powerful message it brings, and I gave my heart to the Lord."

And our response to all of this...."GO GOD!" We know it is HIS POWER that changes lives! We just get to come along and watch it all happen! We are so thankful for that!

So let's use this article this month to take a moment and tell what God is doing in each our lives! Feel free to use the comments section and go to town with a bunch of awesome testimonies! Or you can email us at and share what God is doing! Cannot wait to hear your "GO GOD" stories! And remember...

YOU ARE LOVED...

Donna,

Let me be the first. As you and many others that visit the site know, each year I take on the awesome responsibility of directing our church Easter Play "Watch The Lamb". Every year it is a struggle not knowing if we will have the cast cooperation we need. Peoples nerves get pretty raw with 3 long practices a week starting the first full week in January right up until Easter. Don't get me wrong most everyone knows the goal of this play and does their utmost to make it happen but there are always fires to be put out with at least 150 tired people who work all week and are just trying to make it happen to the Glory of the Lord. This year was no exception. We had everything from someone walking out on their part over a very trivial costume issue to two cast members (both with major roles) whose 17 years old son was diagnosed with cancer the second week into practices. That couple remained faithful and was such an inspiration to all of us. We also lost our deaf ministy team and were contemplating not having the play signed this year. At almost the last minute a family from our church who are missionaries to the deaf in Yucatan, Mexico came home for a year of deputation and were able to take over the deaf ministy end of things and as a result 3 deaf were saved at the play. To show you how God rewards perseverance we were blessed to see 91 souls walk the aisle in 4 nights and accept Jesus Christ as savior. Many more raised their hands for salvation but did not come forward for a public profession. We are still hearing stories of those who are calling friends and relatives to ask more questions about the story they saw. God is good.

Donna,
You are so right! We need to talk about this thing called Salvation and God's Love so much more than we do now. I have a song I recorded called "Conversation Peace" and that is exactly what I have, a Peace I love to share with people. Each of us has a conversation piece that we talk about but the best thing is to talk about The Conversation Peace the He gives us when He comes into our hearts. Share it with EVERYONE!!! I love you guys and look forward to being with you again at the SGN Awards, by the way congrats on the success of "You Are Loved". Eddie, you do a wonderful job on that tune!!!
