    Girl Power Duo to Host the K-LOVE Fan Awards

    March 6, 2026 / Comments Off on Girl Power Duo to Host the K-LOVE Fan Awards

    The K-LOVE Fan Awards are returning to Nashville this spring, but the biggest story might be the voices holding the microphone. After last year’s host lineup leaned heavily into Christian music’s “dad era”—with Bart Millard, Matthew West, Mac Powell and Jeremy Camp guiding the show in 2025—the 2026 ceremony flips the script. This year, the fan-voted celebration will be led by two of the most influential female voices in faith-driven culture: GRAMMY Award–winning artist Lauren Daigle and bestselling author, speaker and podcaster Sadie Robertson Huff. The 13th annual K-LOVE Fan Awards will take place May 24 at Nashville’s iconic OPRY House, once again anchoring what organizers call the biggest weekend…

    ONE MORE SONG: Matt Hammitt Breaks Down the Viral Hit “Days God Gave”

    March 6, 2026 / Comments Off on ONE MORE SONG: Matt Hammitt Breaks Down the Viral Hit “Days God Gave”

    We’ve all heard it before. The crowd starts chanting “ONE MORE SONG! ONE MORE SONG!” Or the artist steps back up to the mic at the end of the night and says something like, “Alright, we’ve got one more song for you… thanks for coming out tonight.” It’s the moment everyone hopes for. That’s the spirit behind CCM Magazine’s new video series, One More Song. Each episode pulls back the curtain on one meaningful track, with the artist breaking down the story behind it mixed with an intimate live performance. For our very first episode, we’re kicking things off with Matt Hammitt and his powerful song “Days God Gave.” The…

    Jamie MacDonald: Cover Story (March 2026)

    March 5, 2026 / Comments Off on Jamie MacDonald: Cover Story (March 2026)

    “I was at a festival over the summer, and I was told there was a woman that had to meet me after the show,” Jamie MacDonald tells me, and already I can feel the weight of where this story is headed.  She leans forward slightly, like she’s back in that moment.     “And so, I’m sitting there chatting with her and she told me that one. She’s going through a really hard time in her life and, just facing some unimaginable things. And she heard my song desperate come over the radio as she was flipping through channels. She said, Jamie, I just want you to know I wasn’t…

    When Going Gets Tough…

    March 5, 2026 / Comments Off on When Going Gets Tough…

    Pacing around my living room, it took everything in me to hold violent cries from sounding out. I was doing it! Yet, before long, I knew I couldn’t hold it in anymore; the excruciating stomach pains were unbearably strong. I had to tell my 12-year-old daughter that I was going to leave her at the house to head to urgent care. She would have to watch TV and check her email for any communication from me. My husband was abroad. She had the computer. Once, at urgent care, I clutched my stomach and, not knowing where else to go, I screamed out to God, “Have mercy on me, Father! Help!!!”…

    Inside the Secret Artist Showcase in a Nashville Warehouse

    March 4, 2026 / Comments Off on Inside the Secret Artist Showcase in a Nashville Warehouse

    When Kris Love from Centricity Music sends you an unfamiliar address in a warehouse district and promises a great time, you show up. It was called “The Coliseum,” and I’m not even sure most Nashville natives have driven past this place. Inside, you’re greeted by a reforged McDonald’s sign pointing toward a small, packed, dimly lit stage. The space is instantly cool, and you quickly forget your walk past storage crates in the parking lot. Throughout the room, radio programmers, label folks, managers, and artists were all crammed together. This wasn’t a stuffy presentation. It felt like a best-kept secret. At the center of it all was Natalie Layne, hosting…

    Justin Mitchell Releases New EP

    March 4, 2026 / Comments Off on Justin Mitchell Releases New EP

    Christian hip-hop artist Justin Mitchell returns with The Reset EP, a five-track EP, available today, marking a defining moment of personal and creative transformation. More than a collection of songs, The Reset EP represents a recalibration of purpose musically, spiritually, and artistically as Mitchell steps fully into this new chapter under his own name following an earlier era of releasing music under a different alias. Blending gritty East Coast hip-hop textures with Christ-centered themes of identity, perseverance, and calling, The Reset EP challenges expectations of what Christian rap can sound like while remaining grounded in authentic faith expression rather than performance-driven religiosity. The project reflects Mitchell’s desire to strip away…

    Janet Paschal Returns with New Single

    A two-time Gospel Music Hall of Fame inductee and one of the genre’s most beloved vocalists for five decades and counting, Janet Paschal returns with “In The Fire.” Her first new single in 15 years, Paschal’s long-awaited StowTown Records debut is now available on all streaming platforms.
