Tasha Layton Debuts MEET ME IN THE VALLEY
We’re sitting inside the Museum of Christian & Gospel Music, the kind of place that makes you feel every era of Christian music all at once, and I’m already a little nostalgic. “When I walk through here, it’s so nostalgic… it’ll put you in your feels,” I said, probably oversharing like I always do. But that’s kind of the point. As much as the nostalgia surrounds me, I had the opportunity to chat with one of Christian music’s brightest voices, Tasha Layton. Our conversation today centered around a premiere screening of her new 30-minute documentary, which captures the creation of her latest song, both titled Meet Me In The Valley. “I think…

Amy Grant: Cover Story (May 2026)
Amy Grant Is Still Telling the Real Story There’s a palpable vibe shift in the room. Sure, the CCM Magazine team might carry a little nervous energy in the days leading up to a Cover Story, but typically things speed up once the artist arrives. This time, everything slowed down. Conversations softened. People leaned in without realizing it. No one rushed. No one needed to. The focus quietly rearranged itself as Amy Grant stepped into our studio. The most striking thing, as she sits just a few feet across from me, is how completely unassuming she is in the middle of it all. She doesn’t seem to carry the weight…

Scott Riggan Releases A Raw Song About Broken Trust Within the Church
Scott Riggan unveils his most vulnerable and unflinching song to date with the release of “Song of the Wolf,” the next single from his upcoming full-length album Shepherds and Wolves, arriving August 28. Written from deeply personal experience, the track confronts the painful reality that some of the deepest wounds in the church come not from outside forces, but from those entrusted with spiritual leadership. Drawing from the biblical warning in Acts 20 about “wolves” who infiltrate the flock, Riggan wrestles with heartbreak, anger, and disillusionment when sin and abuse are hidden to protect reputations rather than brought into the light. With stark imagery and poetic intensity–highlighted by the haunting…
