From the Word...

"...whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy — meditate on these things."
Philippians 4:8 (NKJV)

Kevin Spencer & Friends have just released a timely new song called "God Bless America Again." He is generously making this song available as a FREE mp3 download. To get this song (and to find out why he's doing this), please visit his website. Look for the "Click Here" location in the second paragraph. Right click on that link and then "save target as," designating where you want to save it on your computer. It's a prayer, and the message is always timely — especially now.


 From the broadcast the weekend of Nov. 15th & 16th, 2008:




Click for Talley Trio Our Featured Artists on this program were the Talley Trio. This family group (Roger & Debra and their daughter, Lauren) is one of the best-known and most popular of today's Southern Gospel trios. In fact, as you heard on the program, their musical style is broad enough that they're able to sing in major churches and other venues that don't normally include Southern Gospel, thus introducing a lot of folks to what Southern Gospel music is. Songs on this program were from their new "Life Goes On" CD, and illustrated that musical variety. As you heard, "Hallelujah Praise The Lamb" is a song the Talleys recorded many years ago but which is "new" to today's audiences, and still just as powerful as ever both musically and lyrically.

As the Talley Trio's website proclaims, "Roger, Debra and Lauren Talley are a musical family devoted to God and each other. While their roots are in southern gospel music, the east Tennessee family has developed a unique, progressive sound that combines southern gospel with praise and worship, hymns and other styles. The hallmarks of the 'Talley sound' are their lush arrangements, close-knit harmonies and powerful vocals."

 From the broadcast the weekend of Nov. 8th & 9th, 2008:




Click for Mark Trammell Trio Our Featured Artists on this program were the Mark Trammell Trio. Mark's been singing for about three decades with some of Southern Gospel music's top groups — the Kingsmen, the Cathedrals, Gold City, Greater Vision and now his own trio. And he's never seemed happier in what he's doing. He gets to preach some, which he feels called to do. But, of course, what he does most is sing with Eric Phillips and Dustin Sweatman as the Mark Trammell Trio. Songs on this program were from their new "Always Have A Song" CD. Their first song from that CD sent to radio is called "Loving the Lamb." It's more than five minutes long. A song of that length often doesn't get as much airplay because of radio's tight time constraints. But it's an extremely powerful song and good reminder of God's promise to be with us always. So we'll see. I liked Mark's remark about singing quartet songs, even though they're a trio. Honestly, sometimes listening to their songs you forget they're not a quartet. Congratulations to Dustin for the song he wrote with Diane Wilkinson, "If God Said It, I Believe It." I like the truths spoken in this song — that you can't just accept parts of the Bible, you must accept it all. But you have to listen carefully to the song or you might miss the point that's being made.

Click for Springside The Mark Trammell Trio's CD featured on this program, "Always Have A Song" is available from our mailorder service, Springside. Just call 1-800-38-MUSIC to order. You can order easily from our webstore by using this link to go directly to this item. (Orders over $40 in the USA qualify for free shipping.)

Woody Wright was asked to sing his "I'm So Glad It's Over" song (that you heard on this broadcast) on the Indianapolis Fox TV affiliate Nov. 5th, the morning after Election Day. How appropriate.

Click for HisSong The trio HisSong has seen great success with their songs this year, especially "I Still Have It All" earlier this year and most recently "That's When God Steps In." Both of those songs are songs of encouragement to the Christian, as is their other song heard on this program's Artist Spotlight segment, "Through Every Storm." As the guys said on the air, they always look for songs of hope and encouragement, because, aside from salvation, of course, that's what people seem to need most these days. All three of the songs heard were from their "On The Way Up" CD. Not mentioned on the air was the fact that HisSong — Dennis Humphries, Adam Cannon and Adam Elrod — recently spent a week in Peru, ministering to children of poverty there in association with Compassion International.

These "Current Information" listings are dated to correspond to the program that is provided to stations to air on a specific weekend. Sometimes, for whatever reason, a few stations may inadvertantly air the wrong program—a week early or perhaps late. That is why you might be hearing dated references on the program that don't make sense, including references to future or outdated giveaways. Fortunately, this kind of occurrance is very rare. But please let us know if you notice this happening regularly on your local station.
