| From the broadcast
the weekend of March 21st & 22nd, 2009: |
 Our Featured Artists on this program were the Crist Family.
If you ever get a chance to hear these folks in concert, please do. You'll
enjoy the family harmonies they provide. The age span in an honest-to-goodness
family group always make it interesting, too, for all ages. Songs on this
program came from three different CDs -- their "Classics" CD, their
current "Livin' With The Light On" CD and a new radio song from their
"Declaration" CD which will be released next month. I especially enjoyed
the song "Lift Up The Cross," not only because of the timely nature
of this song as we approach Easter, but because it's a good encouragement
(an admonition, really) to tell others about the centrality of the cross
to the Gospel of Christ.
This was Week #3 (of 4) of our 2009 Great Annual Giveaway.
I hope you've been entering each week. One entry is enough to be in the running
to win, but if you enter once each week it quadruples your chances of winning
when our computerized system draws the winners. Remember that you need to
know the "Key Word" or "Key Phrase" each week to validate your entry.
(On this program is was a two-word phrase.) If you missed a program (shame
on you!) you can still answer if you can find someone who heard the program
and will tell you the key word/phrase. But don't ask the station and don't
ask us -- we aren't allowed to tell you after the broadcast.
"Paul, if I win the cruise and I'd really prefer to go to one of the other
events offered, can I take one of those instead?" Sure. I don't
know why you wouldn't want the cruise, but, yes, since the Grand Prize winner
is the first winner drawn, you have the right to choose one of the other
prizes instead. We'll work with you. So please don't make your reluctance
or inability to go on the cruise a reason for not entering. Remember, there
are hundreds of other prizes.
Speaking of the cruise, there are about twice as many top groups on Templeton
Tours' Singing At Sea cruise as there used to be. That's why I don't
recite the list on the air. There are just so many! But let me give you a
list here: Perrys, Inspirations, Booth Brothers, Legacy Five, Pfeifers, Primitive
Quartet, Jeff & Sheri Easter, the Isaacs, Greater Vision, Gold City,
Squire Parsons, Jerry Goff & Little Jan, Browders, Triumphant Quartet,
Tribute Quartet, Whisnants, New Desire, Royalaires, Browns, Geraldine &
Ricky, the Dills, Brian Free & Assurance, Crist Family, Rochesters, Soul'd
Out, Faith Trio, Kingsmen, Mark Trammell Trio, Karen Peck & New River,
Squire Parsons. Oh, I almost forgot our buddy Aaron Wilburn. We really appreciate
Templeton Tours' willingness to provide the cruise as a prize each year for
the past quarter-century or so! By the way, if you're thinking about going
on that cruise, please call Templeton Tours right away at
1-800-334-2630. It's selling out fast for 2010. If you book the cruise
and later win it, Templeton Tours will convert your previous booking to the
prize.
I loved the story I read on the air from the lady whose mother sang "Jesus
Paid It All" when she was saved. If you have a story about how a Gospel
song or hymn is extra special to you, I'd love to hear it.
