Marvin Sapp Mulls Retirement from Gospel

One of Gospel’s living-legends Marvin Sapp considers calling it quits in the near future. The “Never Would of Made It” singer may put Gospel aside to pursue other ventures.

In a recent interview with comedian Bone Hampton, Sapp says, “I’m a very strong believer that when God gives you platforms, that you take your platform and do other things that you’re passionate about.”

Sapp talks about some of his other ambitions which includes continuing to Pastor, opening up a charter school, senior home living center, and other corporate businesses.

Watch the interview below to hear what Sapp had to say about making Gospel fun again.

Gospel artist Damita Haddon is getting married again. After a lengthy marriage with Gospel star Deitrick Haddon, Damita is no longer looking back.

Damita recently got engaged to photographer Reuben Chandler and is quoted as saying, “I’m very happy because someone has found me that loves me for me.” “When I wasn’t looking, it seemed like God placed him right in front of me. Funny thing is Reuben wasn’t looking for a mate either.” See their love story and pic of them after the cut...

In other news, kicking off 2014 with appearances and a listening party during Stellar Awards week, Jessica Reedy announced the launch of her independent music label Purity Records and an exclusive distribution deal with the #1 independent Gospel music distributor, Central South Distribution. Reedy’s forthcoming CD is set for release in spring 2014.

The Sunday Best runner up had this to say, “During my short time in the industry, I have learned a lot about the business and about myself,” said Reedy. “I discovered the Lord had created me a leader, a pillar, a trailblazer, a lender, an entrepreneur, and a strong woman who is fearless and capable of accomplishing anything with Christ. I knew that would take determination, ambition, strength, wisdom, the Holy Spirit’s guidance and a strong distribution company backing me, which is why I am happy to join with such a respected and accomplished company as Central South Distribution. Their reach goes beyond the United States and their influences go beyond genres. I look forward to what God has in store for me and Central South in the near future.” See more...

After Winning Two Grammy’s MANDISA Explains Why She Didn’t Attend the Awards

Mandisa and Tye Tribbett went home with a pair of awards each from the 56th annual Grammy Awards held Sunday evening in Los Angeles. The awards are the first Grammys won by either artist, though each has received nominations in previous years.

Mandisa’s Overcomer won Best Contemporary Christian Music Album, while the titular single from the album took home the prize for Best Contemporary Christian Music Song. Mandisa was inspired by Good Morning America host Robin Roberts’ health battle in writing the song. Her reason was quite amazing...See what she said after the cut...

Madonna performed ‘Open Your Heart’ at the Grammys on Sunday night after Queen Latifah officiated the mass wedding of 33 gay and transgendered couples during Macklemore & Ryan Lewis’ performance of ‘Same Love,’ which has become a marriage equality anthem.

A few Christian leaders were not shy in voicing their opinion, and even more Christians were outraged that the Grammy’s would take the focus off music to make such a statement. Below are some of the comments that poured in on twitter, and some additional back-story. See tweets and more pics after the cut...

Ranked No. 1 on watchdog Open Doors’ World Watch List for 12 consecutive years as the worst persecutor of Christians on the globe, North Korea is estimated to have imprisoned between 50,000 and 70,000 Christians for failing to revere their “Dear Leader,” the title initiated by previous dictator Kim Jong-il and adopted by his successor and son Kim Jong-un, as a god.

“It is safe to say that nothing has improved for Christians since Kim Jong-un took over power,” Open Doors states in its 2014 World Watch List featuring 50 countries where persecution of Christians for religious reasons is most severe. There are an estimated 300,000 Christians in North Korea, officially known as the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea.

Lost in all the Stellar Awards activity is a little know fact that creeped up the Billboard Gospel albums chart. Still unconfirmed, we believe Gospel rapper Lecrae is the first artist to offer a free-download of his album and a for-sale version of the same album that charts at #1 in sales. Released at the same time, the only minor difference between the mix-tape free version of the album, and the paid version is that there’s no D.J. talking in the paid version. You would think nobody would go for the paid version? Wrong! To sell this many units after one month goes to show that Lecrae has an amazing fan-base. Not to be lost, is the other anomaly that Lecrae’s 2013 studio album ‘Gravity’ is also in the top 10 in sales. That’s two albums currently in the top 10! See the other ministers that made it to the top after the cut...

HeeSun Lee isn’t your average Hip Hop emcee. Put up for adoption in her native Korea at the age of four months, she was brought to America and raised by Chinese parents in a Christian home on Staten Island.

As a teenager, she became a fan of Hip Hop acts ranging from Lauryn Hill and Will Smith to Tupac Shakur. All of Lee’s diverse experiences have fused to create the illuminating backdrop for her sophomore CD “Stereotypes” (In My City Records) that releases on iTunes and other retail outlets on January 21, 2014. Lee’s story is unique in that she credits not only her faith but also Hip Hop for saving her life. “Hip Hop saved me from a lot of things,” she confesses. “My biggest struggle growing up was with my identity and it all correlates with being stereotyped and not knowing where I belonged because I was adopted.” See more and video link( I tried to upload the video buh it dint work out) after the cut...

To those who loved Hillsong’s music through the 1990s, this is the news you’ve been waiting for!

Ending 2013 on a high note with the release of their energetic single, “Shake,” GRAMMY®-nominated, American Music Award and Dove Award winning band MercyMe carries the enthusiasm into 2014 as they announce their eighth studio album Welcome To The New, available April 8, 2014 from Fair Trade.

GSN Television Network, well-known for its hit show "American Bible Challenge," is debuting a new show, "It Takes a Church," where church members compete to find a soul mate for one unsuspecting single.

"There are a growing number of singles in the church who do not want to be single," award-winning gospel artist Natalie Grant told The Christian Post on Monday. Grant said these unhappy singles" are finding it harder and harder to meet quality men and women of integrity." Rather than frequenting nightclubs or bars, or resorting to online dating to find someone new, these unmarried Christians might be part of a grand experiment involving church "cupids." Nawa o, toh they have started competing for soulmate in church. At first I did'nt believe it but it is really happening. It is well o. See how the competition will go after the cut...

The Christian Name no Christian Will Give to Their Daughter

So I stumbled on this very interesting and amazingly true article and thought to share it with you guys. I discovered that this really true. Christians love to name their children after biblical characters, especially those of outstanding spiritual strength, beauty, or fruitfulness.
Go through any church and you’ll find lots of Davids, Peters, Pauls, Matthews, Marks, Johns, etc. And among the ladies, multiple Sarahs, Rachels, Marys, Ruths, Rebeccas, Leahs, Lydias, etc.
But there’s one woman’s name you won’t find anywhere. Which is passing strange because she’s the only woman in the Bible who:

The Bible tells an amazing love story of Jacob, Leah and Rachel. Leah, an average looking girl, was the wife of Jacob and mother of six of twelve tribes. Jacob married Leah by being tricked by her father. Jacob made a deal with her father to marry Leah and work for seven years in order to marry the woman he really loved – Leah’s beautiful sister Rachel. Jacob eventually married Rachel and, who after several years was unable to conceive, finally birthed two sons – Joseph and Benjamin. This story of Love, Envy, Temptation and Sibling Rivalry has been adapted into a modern day film LOVE 101. See plot and trailer after the cut...

FRED HAMMOND UPDATE: Singer Continues to Learn How to Walk After Double Knee Replacement

Gospel star Fred Hammond has reported steady progress on the procedure that replaced both knees. In a recent picture shared on Facebook the ‘united tenor’ showed off his fresh scares.

On his Facebook page, Hammond wrote, “The Word of God plays 24 hours nonstop. My legs have no choice but to line up and cry out to Him, worship and give Him Glory as they respond to His mighty word. My heart mind & soul join in the in the concert of praise giving thanks to the savior of the world. My eyes send tears down my face that remind my heart of the marvelous grace of God. And even the pain I feel raises up to give God glory telling me that his stay is short and he’s been given discharge papers, and his (pain’s) presence is only here to let me know God is healing and not to worry. Bless Him.”

Hammond also stated that he just started moving his toes, so far, so good!

Keep Fred in your prayers.
