For our final week, I wanted to do something really fun…with a little comedy, ya’ know? No matter who you go see in concert in the Southern Gospel realm, you’re bound to laugh. If you don’t, well, there’s something wrong with you! LOL Following that trend, I wanted to take this last poll and do…
The second weekend in March has become home to Praisefest Branson – a three day event hosted by Legacy Five and Greater Vision in Branson, Missouri. This year the Gospel Sing boasted its second anniversary, bringing in special guests such as Jeff and Sheri Easter, the Mark Trammell Quartet, the Collingsworth Family, Ken Davis and…
Welcome to week one of Battle Songs! This is the new video series for the month of April and during these next few weeks, we’ll be doing something a little different – we’ll be taking a poll! Here are the specifics: each Tuesday I’m going to select videos from YouTube of two different Southern Gospel…
Well, here it is, the first Friday in April and boy do we have a give-a-way for you! This month, we’re not just giving away one CD – but three! Greater Vision has combined three of their most popular projects together in one exceptional gift pack; all of these recordings are “discontinued” and if you…
What kind of adventures await for us in April? A lot! Tomorrow I’ll be going up to the Great Lake of the Ozarks Gospel Sing for their three day event in Osage Beach, Missouri.

The morning began with congregational singing. Once again, Chris was in the audience searching for favorite hymns, Gerald was on stage directing and Stan kept us on pitch with the piano. Gerald encouraged us to sing loud even if we don’t think our voices are good because pitch changes as sound travels. “Part of worship…
If you read the review of the morning session, Friday Morning Standing Ovations, you’re probably wondering what poor group had to follow in the evening! It couldn’t be just anybody…but, what do you think,… maybe the Collingsworth Family would do? Well, that’s exactly who we had for the third session and second night of Praisefest…
March may be known as “March Madness” in the sports circle, but in Missouri, Southern Gospel Fans look forward to March as the month that Greater Vision and Legacy Five host Praisefest Branson in Branson, Missouri. This year, GV and L5 invited artists such as the Mark Trammell Quartet, Jeff and Sheri Easter, the…
We spent a delightful two days in Marion, IL at the Truthseekers Homecoming in February! The Marion Civic Center is one of my favorite auditoriums to see SGM performed in. The theater is beautiful, the people are wonderful, the atmosphere there is rare at Gospel Sings and when you put all of those things together…you…

Though, snatch phrases from the evening like, “Excuse me ladies, if I spit on you,” “George’s Birthday,” or “who did he think I was?” would be perfect, don’t you think?
