"...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)

From the broadcast
the weekend of July 31st & Aug. 1st, 2010:
This
was our official Singing News Top 20 Countdown Edition, based
on the magazine's August chart. For the second consecutive month,
the Top 20 included several lengthy songs which took up the time we'd normally
devote to Featured Artist visits. So, instead, all of our artist visits on
this program were with artists associated with the songs on the chart.
Congratulations to the Dove Brothers on their second-ever number one
song! Their first, as mentioned on the program, was "I Can Pray" back
in July and August, 2007.
Please remember those two upcoming dates I mentioned on the program. We'll
have our next Listener Favorite Call-In
on Sunday afternoon, August 15, from noon to 6 p.m. Eastern time.
We'd really like to hear from you — especially because summertime call-ins
are usually pretty slow. The other date to remember is the weekend of August
21st and 22nd, when we'll be airing the second of our three "decade
countdowns," this time the "Top 20 of the 1990s." Response
to our last one (the 1980s) was phenomenal.
On the Headline Update, I mentioned the 12th annual St. Jude Benefit
Singing for the St. Jude Children's Hospital, August 7th, 2010, in
Gainesville, Georgia. It's at the Georgia Mountains Center on Main Street.
There is no admission charge but a love offering will be taken. For more
info please call 770-532-3016 or 888-741-9306.
From the broadcast
the weekend of July 24th & 25th, 2010:
Woody Wright, our Featured Artist on this
program, is quite an interesting character — as you know if you've ever
heard him in concert. His sense of humor often comes out in the way he writes
and develops his songs. You heard some of his songs from his solo CD, "Turn
From The Darkness," including that title song. But he's also been writing
songs that quite a few of today's top Southern Gospel artists have been singing,
a few of which you heard on this program. In addition to all that, he also
produces recordings for other artists and, of course, travels quite a bit
with his wife Vonnie for concert appearances. More info about Woody, including
contact info, can be found on
his website.
Woody Wright's CD featured on this program, "Turn
From The Darkness," 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.)
I'm glad our Artist Spotlight guests
this week, Perfect Heart, brought that name out of retirement. The
quartet was very popular back in the 1990s. In fact, when the group was first
formed, their very first song released to radio ("Somebody Touched The
Lord") went to number one of the Singing News chart. That was
the first time a group's debut radio song ever did that. Today's group includes
tenor Wesley Anders, lead Jimmy Dunn, baritone Tommy Smith
and bass (and original member) Mike Presnell. "Glory Waves" is
their current radio song (according to their website) from their "The
Best of Perfect Heart" CD. More info about Perfect Heart can be found
on their website,
www.perfectheartqt.com. Their
e-mail is
perfectheart@perfectheartqt.com.
On
the Headline Update you heard Mike Bowling talking about their
recent very serious bus accident. He and Kelly and their daughter,
Katelynn, are all recovering from serious injuries. As you heard him
say, in fact, Kelly will have several months of recuperation and therapy
(at least) due to her severe back injuries. I like this quote from Mike,
part of which I read on the air: "Sometimes, Paul, I believe we go through
things — and I know I do in my personal life — that we go through
things that maybe it's just not for us but maybe someday down the road we
can help somebody else that is going through something like this. And I know
there's a reason, and I don't question God. I just trust Him and I know that
good is going to come out of this... He's proven to me that He's God by just
sparing our lives in such a horrible accident." Cards and letters
of encouragement for the Bowlings would be much appreciated and can be mailed
to the Bowlings, 242 West Main Street, PMB 373, Hendersonville, TN
37075. More info can be found at

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.
