CHUCK’S CHUCKLES:                                   
10 More Thoughts To Ponder-
1. Why is the third hand on a watch called the “second hand”? 
2. Would anyone ever know if a word was misspelled in the dictionary? 
3. If Webster wrote the first dictionary, what did he look at to spell the words he didn’t know? 
4. Why do tug boats “push” barges? 
5. Why do we sing, "Take me out to the ball game" when we are already there? 
6. Why are they called "stands" at the ballpark when they are made for sitting? 
7. Why is it called "after dark" when it really is after light? 
8. If work is so great, why do they have to pay you to do it? 
9. If you are cross-eyed and have dyslexia, are you able to read correctly? 
10. Why do we wash bath towels when we are already clean when we use them?

This is the July 24, 2006 edition of Glory2Glory Christian Music E-zine!, a contemporary Christian music and modern Worship newsletter distributed to gospel music enthusiasts around the world. 
 
VERSE OF THE WEEK:
“Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Savior Jesus Christ” – Titus 2:13 (KJV)
 
IN THE NEWS:
!Hero, The Rock Opera! is finally returning to the stage after being indefinitely postponed a couple of years ago.  MICHAEL TAIT, who plays “Hero”, will head up a 21-member cast with a live band and dancers.  The southwest leg of the tour starts on November 2nd on the Baylor University campus in Waco, Texas and then makes stops in Tulsa, Oklahoma City, Austin, Houston and Shreveport, Lousiana.  For more info, visit www.heroshows.com. <><
 
The co-founder and frontman of the legendary Christian metal band STRYPER is releasing a worship-oriented project.  MICHAEL SWEET’s first all-new solo effort in five years, Him, includes “timeless standards that have been completely rewritten musically and melodically.”  According to Sweet, the singer drew inspiration by searching through a church hymnal and finding songs that have made a lasting impact in his life, such as “Take My Life,” “Alleluia” and the definitive Christmas favorite, “O Holy Night.”  <><
 
Dove Award-winning trio SELAH is releasing Bless The Broken Road - The Duets on August 8th.  The album is a collection of collaborations with some of Christian music’s top names, including original songs “Glory” with NICHOLE NORDEMAN; “I Will Sing of My Redeemer” with BARLOWGIRL; “Follow Jesus (Landa Yesu)”, a duet with NICOLE C. MULLEN; and “Mary Sweet Mary” with PLUMB.  The Duets album, which marks the group’s first new project in two years, also features duets with Selah’s new female vocalist, Amy Perry with CHRISTY NOCKELS, Jason and Adam Crabb of the CRABB FAMILY, KIM HILL and JILL PHILLIPS. <><
 
The rock ‘n’ roller who once may have had Sympathy for the Devil is now jamming for Jehovah.  62-year-old Rolling Stones guitarist Keith Richards plays on a half-dozen tracks on My Soul is a Witness, a collection of African-American spirituals released by the Lutheran Church, including “I Want Jesus to Walk With Me” and “Rock in Jerusalem.”  The project was the brainchild of Richards' sister-in-law, concert vocalist Marsha Hansen, who recorded the tracks at the guitarist's Connecticut home about five years ago.  Richards' wife, Patti Hansen, is the sister of Rev. Rodney Hansen, Marsha Hansen's husband and the pastor of Mount Hope Lutheran Church in El Paso, Texas.
 
The hard to find CD was initially released by Augsburg Books, which is affiliated with the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America.  Initially only 2,500 copies were pressed but now a second printing is on the way.  Richards, who isn’t a Lutheran, is joined on the recording by Hansen, former Beach Boys guitarist Blondie Chaplin and Bob Dylan’s drummer, George Receli.” <><
 
Grammy-award winners THIRD DAY is releasing their first-ever Christmas record in October.  Christmas Offerings will feature a combination of studio and live tracks, including live renditions of "Away In A Manger," "Silent Night," "The First Noel," and "Do You Hear What I Hear," as well as studio recordings of classic Christmas hymns "Joy To The World," "What Child Is This," "O Holy Night," "Angels We Have Heard On High," and "O Come All Ye Faithful."   The album will also contain four new songs—"Jesus, Light Of The World," "Born In Bethlehem," "Merry Christmas," and "Christmas Like A Child." <><
 
SOUNDBYTES:
SANCTUS REAL’s No. 1 radio hit, “I’m Not Alright,” has been voted the favorite video for the week (July 24-30) on MTV’s college website, mtv-U (www.mtvu.com/music/freshmen/).  Thousands of fans cast their vote for the band’s music video from the album The Face of Love, so mtv-U has also added it to the channel’s video rotation. <>< MERCYME’s latest single "So Long Self" has moved up to No. 17 on Billboard’s mainstream Hot Adult Contemporary Tracks chart this week (7/29/06 issue), making it the band’s fourth consecutive mainstream AC hit.  MercyMe is currently featured on the Entertainment Tonight website, where fans can win a Coming Up to Breathe CD (et.tv.yahoo.com/contests) <>< Atlanta Braves fans will be treated to a post-game Christian music concert this Thursday (July 27), as “Faith Days with the Braves” (presented by Third Coast Sports) debuts at Turner Field after the Braves host the Florida Marlins.  TCAA artists AARON SHUST and THE AFTERS will perform with Braves pitcher John Smoltz scheduled as the event’s guest speaker. <><

CHUCK’S CHUCKLES:
10 Thoughts That Will Make You Go, Hmmmm?-
1. Why do we choose from over fifty contestants for Miss America but just between two for US President? 
2. Why are we told to wear loose-fitting clothing for an exercise class when, if we had any loose-fitting clothing in the first place, we wouldn’t need to sign up! 
3. Don't argue with an idiot because people watching may not be able to tell the difference. 
4. Why is it that our children can't read a Bible in school, but it’s perfectly alright to read if they’re in prison? 
5. Why do brain cells deteriorate as we get older, but fat cells live forever? 
6. Why do we have to swear on a Bible in court when the Ten Commandments cannot be displayed outside of the courthouse? 
7. Bumper sticker seen recently: "If you can read this, thank a teacher, and since it's printed in English, thank a soldier." 
8. Life is like a roll of toilet tissue--the closer it gets to the end, the faster it goes. 
9. If Winnie the Pooh is “human” enough to keep his honey in jars, why does he scoop it out with his hands (wouldn’t he have a spoon?)
10. Why does it say "shake well" on ketchup bottles, but not on packets of ketchup?

The San Diego-based rockers’ current album, Nothing Is Sound, fell flat by mainstream standards by only moving a little over a half-million units (according to Nielsen SoundScan), compared to its predecessor, The Beautiful Letdown, which has U.S. sales of 2.6 million. <>< TODD AGNEW’s Grace Like Rain remains at No. 1 for the second week in a row on Billboard’s Top Pop Catalog chart in the trade magazine’s July 15th. issue.  For two weeks now, Agnew’s album has outsold “greatest hits” packages from such mainstream heavyweights as The Beach Boys, Johnny Cash, Tim McGraw and Bob Seger and the Silver Bullet Band. <>< Gospel music pioneer ANDRAE CROUCH recently received the International Worship Institute's “Cherub Award,” whose past recipients include gospel songwriters BILL and GLORIA GAITHER.  In the 70's, the now 64-year-old pastor recorded many songs that have become church standards, including "Through It All," "To God Be The Glory," "Bless His Holy Name," "Soon And Very Soon" and "The Blood Will Never Lose Its Power." <><

This is the July 3, 2006 edition of Glory2Glory Christian Music E-zine!, a contemporary Christian music and modern Worship newsletter distributed to gospel music enthusiasts around the world. 
 
HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY!
 
IN THE NEWS:
Question of the week:  What Country music band always thanks “their lord and Savior Jesus Christ” when they win an award for their records?  Answer:  Rascal Flatts.  Accolades go on and on for the multi-Platinum selling trio—numerous Country Music Association “Vocal Group of the Year” awards, Billboard and Radio & Records “Artist of the Year” trophies, a Grammy® award for “Country Song of the Year”, album sales of over 11 million units, etc., etc.  Rascal Flatts’ members Gary LeVox, Joe Don Rooney and Jay DeMarcus are all self-professed Christians.  DeMarcus originally got his start in music as half of the contemporary Christian duo EAST TO WEST, who had several hit records in the early ‘90s, including “Live Like I’m Leaving” which still gets lots of airplay on CCM radio. 
 
In an interview while still a member of East To West, DeMarcus remarked, “…no matter the type of music, if we put God first, He will then open the doors and pave the way that we are to serve Him with our gifts.”  It seems that one would find it tough to disagree with that statement when looking at the accomplishments of this band, whose "Here's To You Tour” in 2005 was attended by over 750,000 people in 70 cities and won Rascal Flatts a “Break-Through Touring Act of the Year” award from Billboard magazine.  Their current "Me and My Gang Tour”, which kicked off February 2nd and is performing to sold out crowds across America, will wrap up with 75 dates in November and is projected to play in front of 900,000 fans.  Whew!  That sure is a long way from Columbus, Ohio, where second cousins Jay and Gary learned to love music during family jam sessions. <><
 
Multi-Platinum, GRAMMY® and Dove Award-winning band THIRD DAY is getting ready for their fall ’06 leg of the highly successful “Wherever You Are Tour”.  Since their opening date with the DAVID CROWDER*BAND in Fairfax, Virginia in mid-February, Third Day has become the leading touring band in Christian music.  The Atlanta-based group has consistently ranked in the Top 25 on Pollstar Magazine’s “Weekly Concert Pulse”, alongside mainstream artists such as James Taylor, Coldplay, Bon Jovi, Kenny Chesney and Bob Dylan.  Pollstar ranks each artist by box-office gross per city in North America. <><
 
The latest album from Christian alternative band UNDEROATH has claimed the No. 2 spot on Billboard's Top 200 albums chart in its first week of release.  Define The Great Line is the highest debuting Christian CD on the Billboard Top 200 since Lee Ann Rimes' inspirational project You Light Up My Life debuted at No. 1 in September 1997.  Underoath’s fourth release sold 98,000 units in its first week in stores (with less than 5,000 albums sold by Christian retailers), making it the highest first week sales mark in Tooth & Nail Record's history.  The album also claimed the top spot on Billboard’s “Top Christian Albums" and "General-Market Retail" charts and came in at No. 2 on the trade magazine’s "Christian Retail" chart. 
 
"I feel like I want people to know we're a Christian band," according to vocalist Spencer Chamberlain.  "But at the same time I don't like tacking God or the fact that we're Christian onto something to sell more records.  Tags can be limiting," Chamberlain added.  Underoath is currently playing summer festivals and plans to tour in New Zealand and Australia this fall. <><
 
SOUNDBYTES:
After four studio releases, an acoustic EP and a live album, GINNY OWENS is releasing a greatest hits package this summer.  If You Want Me To: The Best of Ginny Owens will hit store shelves on August 8th and include two new tracks. <><  Mark Hall, frontman of Platinum-selling and Grammy award-winning band CASTING CROWNS, is releasing his first book with writer Tim Luke on August 29th.  Lifestories: Finding God’s “Voice of Truth” Through Everyday Life chronicles events and life experiences that have inspired many of Hall’s award-winning songs. <>< SRE Records’ Christian rockers DECYFER DOWN is getting a lot of exposure in the sports world with their song “Break Free” from their debut project, End Of Grey.  The NBA, Major League Baseball, NCAA, National Hockey League, Arena Football League and National Hot Road Association have played and broadcast the tune to almost 10 million audience members through on site and television this summer. <><

SOUNDBYTES:
Chicago native MATTHEW WEST recently performed the national anthem at a Chicago Cubs baseball game.  A capacity crowd of more than 40,000 people at Wrigley Field sang along with the once-aspiring baseball player turned musician. <>< STELLER KART has made it to the big screen!  The Phoenix, Arizona band's music video, "Life Is Good (Eternal Life Is Better)", is featured in the new Lindsay Lohan comedy, Just My Luck, which, BTW, was filmed entirely in New Orleans and south Louisiana (see the video at myspace.com/stellarkart). <>< Pioneering contemporary Christian trio FIRST CALL has reunited to record a new CD.  Original members Bonnie Keen, Marty McCall and Melodie Tunney has released Rejoice: An A Cappella Hymns Collection and will also star in a PAX-TV special filmed in the Colorado Rocky Mountains that is set to air on June 18th. <>< MERCYME sold almost 30,000 CDs and cassettes in the 3rd week of release of their latest album, Coming Up to Breathe, which keeps them in the top 50 on Billboard magazine’s Top 200 chart.  Also the band’s first radio single, “So Long Self”, rose to No. 21 on Radio & Records’ mainstream Adult Contemporary chart this week.  Find out more about MercyMe’s new music in an interview here: MercyMe Interview.wmv. <><  CHRIS RICE continues to climb R&R’s mainstream AC chart with his ballad, “When Did You Fall (In Love With Me)”.  The single from Rice’s Amusing album is at No. 12 this week, beating out secular heavyweights such as Sheryl Crow, Santana and Mariah Carey. <>< MICHAEL SWEET has announced he is releasing a hymns album on August 1st. on Integrity Records.  STRYPER’s founding member also plans a US solo tour of churches, theatres and coffee houses this fall. <><  Christian hip hop artist JOHN REUBEN has shot a pilot for a new TV sitcom called The Professional Rapper and fans can view the show online at www.YouTube.com.  If the reality show pilot gets enough positive feedback, it could become a new television program, but Reuben warns fans to only leave good comments:  “Operators are on duty 24 hours a day to receive flattery, blind optimism and all forms of sucking up!” <>< PILLAR is working on their forthcoming October ’06 album release in between concert dates on The Warriors Tour headlined by P.O.D. The hard-rockin’ band recorded two new tracks, “The Reckoning” and “Autumn”, on an off day last week. <><

This is the May 8, 2006 edition of Glory2Glory Christian Music E-zine!, a contemporary Christian music and modern Worship newsletter distributed to gospel music enthusiasts around the world. 
 
IN THE NEWS:
Multi-Platinum band MERCYME is celebrating the release of their new album, Coming Up To Breathe, with its first single “So Long Self,” which has been the most–added single at mainstream Adult Contemporary radio for two weeks in a row.  The hit single is already in the Top 30 in only 14 days on both Billboard’s and Radio & Records’ AC charts.  The Texas quintet’s fifth project so far, Coming Up To Breathe debuted last week on Billboard’s Top 200 chart at No. 13, selling over 58,000 units in its’ first week of release.  The new CD has bested the previous record set by the band’s 2004 release, Undone, which sold 56,000 copies in its’ first week.  Also Coming Up To Breathe entered at No. 1 on Billboard’s Contemporary Christian chart and is the No. 25 CD on i-tunes’ Today’s Top 100 Albums list.
 
"We have certainly felt a ground swell of support for this band and their new project on every level," according to INO Records president Jeff Moseley.  "Radio, media and retail have really come to the table to set this record up in a huge way, and for that we are truly grateful."  Adding to the excitement, MercyMe was featured on the front page of the New York Times “Arts” section after the newspaper sent a photographer to the band’s in-store event at a Houston-area Wal-Mart, where Bart Millard and the boys performed an acoustic set for over 3,000 fans and signed copies of their new album for over two hours!  MercyMe is set to tour across the nation this fall with AUDIO ADRENALINE and new artist PHIL WICKHAM, stopping in cities including Louisville, KY; Albuquerque, NM; Indianapolis, IN; Houston, TX and Shreveport, LA (produced by glory2glory productions!) <><  
 
Two years after SIXPENCE NONE THE RICHER officially called it quits, the band’s former lead singer LEIGH NASH is preparing to release her first solo album.  After topping the charts with cross-over pop hits such as "Kiss Me" and "There She Goes", Nash will now try to hit No. 1 with Blue On Blue, which will hit store shelves on August 15th. on One Son Records, her imprint label through Nettwerk Productions.  Produced by Pierre Marchand (producer of Sarah McLachlan and Rufus Wainwright), the new project is being called a “sweetly understated collection of musings on love and motherhood.”  Nash and Marchand co-wrote two of the CD’s songs together, the album’s opener "All Along The Wall" and "Between The Lines."  Nash will also spend the summer months gearing up for a North American tour this fall with JARS OF CLAY. <><
 
Ark-La-Miss favorite TWO EMPTY CHAIRS has just returned from recording their first album with Barry Blair of AUDIO ADRENALINE at Barry’s Big House Recording Studio in Nashville.  The El Dorado, Arkansas natives also just got back from Hollywood after filming a music video for an upcoming Christian film entitled The Moment After 2 (The Awakening). Check out all the news about this great up and coming band at www.twoemptychairs.com. <><
 
A Kentucky minister/musician’s recent album is doing some great things for ill children in his home state.  JEFF GREENE’s project recorded for babies, Child of Wonder, is being used by the University of Kentucky’s Children's Hospital as musical therapy for their young patients.  Also Kosair's Children's Hospital in Louisville is wanting to use this same therapy, so local businesses are purchasing Greene’s CDs and donating them to the hospital.  Between both of these facilities, several thousand sick children pass through every year and Greene wants every child to have a free CD.  Greene is currently in negotiations with the Markey Cancer Center at the University of Kentucky to have his “serenity” album, Heaven Scent, used as musical therapy for their adult patients.  For more information and to listen to samples of Jeff Greene’s soothing music, visit www.jacksonrecords.net. <><
 
The "final" (we've heard that before!?) two albums of previously unreleased music from JOHNNY CASH is being assembled, ed music from JOHNNY CASH is being assembled, with the first recording being readied for release this summer.  American V: A Hundred Highways features a dozen songs from sessions recorded with the Man in Black’s longtime producer and friend Rick Rubin in his studio in Los Angeles and at Cash's cabin in Nashville.  A very ill Johnny Cash wrapped up recording the last of 60 tracks only a week before the country and gospel legend died at the age of 71 in September 2003.  According to Rubin, when Cash’s wife, June Carter, died in May 2003, a sense of urgency seemed to grip the gravel-voiced, self-professed Christian.  Rubin recalls, "Once June passed, Johnny had the will to live long enough to record, but that was pretty much all.  A day after June passed, he said, 'I need to have something to do every day…otherwise, there's no reason for me to be here.' "  Cash and Rubin’s fifth collaboration will include a prayerful version of Larry Gatlin's “Help Me”, the traditional gospel tune “God's Gonna Cut You Down” and Gordon Lightfoot’s “If You Could Read My Mind”.  The album also features the final song Johnny Cash wrote, “The 309”, a poignant and amusing train yarn. 
 
Cash could only record when his health would permit, so Rubin says he kept a sound engineer and guitarist on standby around the clock so the songs were “captured in the moment rather than sculpted” with instrumentation built under the vocal tracks later.  American V: A Hundred Highways is scheduled to be released on July 4th. on American Recordings/Lost Highway Records. <><
 
SOUNDBYTES:
Congratulations to TOBYMAC and wife Amanda on the birth of their fifth child, Judah Monroe McKeehan, a healthy baby boy who weighed in at 6 lbs. 13 ounces! <>< Simple/INO Records’ PHIL WICKHAM’s self-titled debut album came in at No. 3 the first week out on Billboard’s Heatseekers and No. 8 on the trade magazine’s Top Christian Albums charts.  This fall the former worship leader will tour with MercyMe and Audio Adrenaline. <><  THE AFTERS’ huge cross-over hit "Beautiful Love" has been awarded RIAA’s Gold Certification for Digital Sales of more than 100,000 downloads.  The award was developed to recognize significant sales of the ever-growing digital music market. <>< New Sparrow Records rockers NEEDTOBREATHE has been picked to open select shows throughout this month (May 2006) for Grammy Award-winning mainstream act Train.  The South Carolina band just released its debut album, Daylight, and recently appeared on the cover of the April 2006 issue of CCM Magazine. <>< Flicker Records will be re-releasing KIDS IN THE WAY’s sophomore album under a new title, Apparitions Of Melody - The Dead Letters Edition.  The re-release will feature two new songs and a DVD featuring music videos, behind the scenes footage and extras. <><

This is the April 24, 2006 edition of Glory2Glory Christian Music E-zine!, a contemporary Christian music and modern Worship newsletter distributed to gospel music enthusiasts around the world. 
 
IN THE NEWS:
MERCYME’s new album, “Coming Up To Breathe”, ships to stores on Tuesday (April 25th) and the band plans on making several television appearances this weekend to promote the project.  On Saturday (April 29th) the Dallas-based quintet will visit New York City to perform live on the “CBS Early Show” and Fox News Channel’s “Fox & Friends.”  MercyMe’s first single from the album, "So Long Self", is already a top 10 hit on the Christian AC radio charts and is now being released to mainstream AC radio this week.  Bart Millard and the band has already produced three consecutive hit singles on mainstream AC radio with "I Can Only Imagine," "Here With Me" and "Homesick." <><
 
The longest-running family drama on television is releasing a new soundtrack “inspired” by the series.  “Music That Inspired the Hit Television Show 7th Heaven” hits stores on May 2nd and will feature Country, contemporary Christian, Inspirational and Gospel artists and songs such as WYNONNA’s “What the World Needs", AMY GRANT’s "This Is My Father's World", country baritone RANDY TRAVIS singing the timeless "He's Got the Whole World in His Hands", gospel-R&B legend Mavis Staples with "Have a Little Faith"; MAHALIA JACKSON’s "Joshua Fit the Battle of Jericho", country legend George Jones with "I'll Fly Away", SANDI PATTY’s rendition of "How Great Thou Art" and Southern gospel’s BILL & GLORIA GAITHER and Their Homecoming Friends with "Get on the Happy Side of Living."
 
7th Heaven is celebrating 10 years on The WB Network and has regularly ranked no. one in its time slot against all competition but The WB is planning to cancel the program later this year when the network merges with UPN (United Paramount Network.  To listen to audio clips and enter a contest to win an iPod Nano loaded with the 7th Heaven soundtrack, visit 7thheavensoundtrack.com. <><
 
Modern worship artist JASON MORANT is getting ready to release his sophomore project next month.  Morant had planned to record “Open” in his hometown of New Orleans before Hurricane Katrina destroyed his studio there but the singer/songwriter ended up working with co-producer Paul Mills in Nashville to record the songs he had spent the last two years writing in the Crescent City.  According to Morant, "I had really looked forward to doing this record at home, but in the end, I believe all that I had envisioned has even gone beyond my expectations.  Paul and I have actually treasured the fact that our recording plans were foiled more than once because it forced us to constantly surrender the project to the Lord and not rely on our own strength." 
 
“Open”, which is set to be released on May 30th, overflows with 16 tracks, all written or co-written by Morant, including two instrumental tunes.  For more information, go to jasonmorant.com. <><
 
AUDIO ADRENALINE’s Bob Herdman is embarking on an “iMission” in Haiti, documenting his journey with daily updates to an online journal.  The Hands & Feet Project, an orphanage founded by Herdman and Audio A, is being built from the ground up and will provide a caring and loving environment for orphaned children in Haiti.  Equipped with a laptop, digital camera and web cam, Herdman will detail his iMission beginning April 28th and continuing through May 11th with online reports of the day-to-day activities in a multimedia presentation.  For more info, visit HandsAndFeetProject.org or MySpace.com/HandsandFeetProject.  Audio Adrenaline is set to tour this fall with MERCYME on the “Coming Up To Breathe Tour.” <><
 
The female-fronted band SUPERCHIC(K) has signed with mainstream label Columbia Records and will release “Beauty From Pain 1.1” on July 18th.  The band’s original album, “Beauty From Pain”, was released last year on Inpop Records and was named a Billboard magazine “Heatseeker” album at the time.  The new major label edition will add a brand-new song, "Stand In The Rain," and the “Battle Mix” version of "One Girl Revolution" (which appeared in the Reese Witherspoon hit film "Legally Blonde").  Also the CD will include new mixes of the songs "Anthem" and "We Live", the first single from the new album which is scheduled to release to all radio formats on May 16th. <><

CHUCK’S CHUCKLES:
Actual Catholic Elementary School Quiz Answers-
(these were actual answers from test questions about the Old and New Testaments in the Bible given by children attending a Catholic elementary school)
1. Adam and Eve were created from an apple tree.  Noah's wife was Joan of Ark.  Noah built an ark and the animals came on in “pears”.    
2. The Egyptians were all drowned in the “dessert”.  Afterwards, Moses went up to Mount Cyanide to get the Ten Commandments. 
3. The First Commandment was when Eve told Adam to eat the apple. 
4. The Seventh Commandment is “Thou shalt not admit adultery.” 
5. Moses died before he ever reached Canada.  Then Joshua led the Hebrews in the battle of Geritol. 
6. The greatest miracle in the Bible is when Joshua told his son to stand still and he obeyed him. 
7. Solomon, one of David’s sons, had 300 wives and 700 porcupines. 
8. Jesus enunciated the golden rule, which says to “do unto others before they do one to you.”  He also explained a “man doth not live by sweat alone.” 
9. The people who followed the Lord were called the “12 Decibels.” 
10. The Epistels were the wives of the Apostles. 
11. One of the opossums was St. Matthew who was also a taximan. 
12. St. Paul cavorted to Christianity and preached holy acrimony, which is another name for marriage. 
13. Christians have only one spouse.  This is called monotony.

This is the April 17, 2006 edition of Glory2Glory Christian Music E-zine!, a contemporary Christian music and modern Worship newsletter distributed to gospel music enthusiasts around the world. 
 
SOUNDBYTES:
Two Christian albums have hit the Top 5 in Billboard’s “Top Heatseekers” chart this week.  HILLSONG’s “United We Stand” and SANCTUS REAL’s “Face of Love” comprise nos. 4 and 5, respectively, on this album chart of “bestselling titles by new and developing artists.” <><
 
STEVEN CURTIS CHAPMAN will embark on a 20-city international tour on April 24th.  Chapman, who recently won his 50th career GMA Music Award (Dove), departs for concert stops in Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, the Philippines, Hong Kong, South Korea and China, where the singer and his family will spend a month working in Beijing orphanages. <><
 
Speaking of the 37th Annual GMA Music Awards, the broadcast is airing in national syndication through May 21st.  Central City Productions of Chicago is syndicating the awards show through network affiliates and independent stations to at least 70 percent of U.S. television households.  To see CHRIS TOMLIN pick up his five Dove Awards and the other 36 Christian artists who also won, check this list of stations airing the GMA Music Awards. <><
 
JEREMY CAMP was recently named the top songwriter at the 28th Annual ASCAP Christian Music Awards.  For the second year in a row, Camp was named Songwriter of the Year for writing his hit singles “This Man” and “Take You Back” (also named ASCAP’s Song of the Year.) <><
 
Also singer/songwriter Jeremy Camp and his wife Adrienne Liesching (formerly of the Christian rockers THE BENJAMIN GATE) are brand new parents!  The couple’s second daughter, Arianne Mae, was born early April 5th., weighing 5 lbs 13 oz.  Arianne joins big sister, Isabella Rose, who is now 18 months old. <><
 
PASSION is releasing a two-disc DVD set in June that will feature seven hours of live footage from the Passion ’06 student conference held in Nashville earlier this year.  Also the date and host city for the next conference has been set.  Passion ‘07 will be held January 1st-4th in Atlanta and will again feature lead worshipers Chris Tomlin, DAVID CROWDER*BAND, CHARLIE HALL and MATT REDMAN, as well as speakers Louie Giglio, John Piper and Beth Moore.  For more info or to register, visit www.268generation.com. <><
 
The WNBA's new “Have You Seen Her?” television advertising campaign will feature music from teen Christian singers and Disney Channel actresses ALY AND AJ.  The women’s basketball league's 10th Anniversary season will use the sibling’s song “Rush” in 30 and 60-second spots airing during nationally televised NBA and WNBA games on ABC, ESPN, ESPN2, TNT and NBA-TV. <><
 
Columbia Records is releasing a two-disc set of previously unreleased recordings from the Man in Black.  The late JOHNNY CASH recorded the cuts way back in the '70s but never commercially released the songs, stashing the master tapes away at his headquarters in Hendersonville, Tennessee.  The box marked "Personal File" (also the title of the upcoming album) was found recently, so the stripped-down, 49-song set consisting of “intimate performances” will now be released on May 23rd.  The second CD in the set features 24 inspirational songs, including eleven originals written by Cash, who was a self-proclaimed Christian, actor and film producer. <><

IN THE NEWS:
The ninth Passion project will hit store shelves on April 4th.  “Passion: Everything Glorious” was recorded live at the Passion ‘06 gathering held in early January in Nashville and follows eight other Passion recordings that have over one million albums.  Over 18,000 college students representing 50 states and 20 countries gathered for the four-day event that featured lead worshippers CHRIS TOMLIN, DAVID CROWDER*BAND, MATT REDMAN and CHARLIE HALL.
 
In a press release, Passion Conferences’ founder and director Louie Giglio says, “Passion recordings exist to glorify God, uniting students in worship and prayer for spiritual awakening in this generation.”  “The hope is that with ‘Passion: Everything Glorious’ students will continue to be encouraged by the messages of Passion ‘06 and use these messages to motivate change on their campuses and in their communities,” Giglio added. <><
 
CECE WINANS and her Puresprings Gospel record label are accepting song submissions from worship leaders across the nation for a future album from the singer.  “CeCe Winans Presents: The Worship Leader” will showcase some of the most powerful original worship songs that are sweeping churches across America. <><
 
A new website will launch this month to provide modern worship resources for churches with contemporary services.  Greatworshipsongs.com, a service of Brentwood-Benson Music Publishing, offers worship leaders downloadable lead sheets, chord charts, lyrics and complete songs from many popular artists, such as MICHAEL W. SMITH, CASTING CROWNS and THIRD DAY. 
 
According to Steve Rice, executive director of the site, worship leaders and musicians can then use these resources to help their congregations discover powerful new songs for personal and corporate worship:  “I am humbled to be able to play a role in equipping those who lead worship around the world.  Worship music reflects the believer’s ever-increasing revelation of our amazing God,” Rice said.  “As new songs of response are birthed, we want Greatworshipsongs.com to be at the forefront of making them available to others throughout the world,” he added. <><
