I thought of this woman today...

Cece Winans is an inspiration in gospel music.

She has been out there from the 90s, 2000s,2010s and even the 2020s.

Very few global gospel icons have such longevity.
Youths of different decades have grown up being blessed by her songs.

God bless your ministry ma!

Whenever I hear someone sing this old hymn, or I sing it to myself, it touches me deeply.
Especially in a situation where the only option I have is to TRUST GOD AND WALK ON WATER or drown.

What does Good Friday and Easter mean to you personally?

For me, Good Friday is the end of everything old and unpleasant while Easter is the birth of everything new and glorious.

I never knew that she sang the EYE ON THE SPARROW song!

Ethel Waters is another shining example of an influential Black artist that began in the secular world and eventually brought her talents to the Gospel music scene. In 1950, Ethel Waters was the first Black American performer to star in her own regular television show, Beulah, but it was the 1961 role in the “Good Night, Sweet Blues” episode of the television series Route 66 that earned her an Emmy Award nomination, the first Black woman to be nominated. Acting was a second career after singing in four different genres—jazz, blues, pop, and Gospel. She performed on Broadway stages, the first Black artist to receive top billing with white stars. She also toured with evangelist Billy Graham. We inducted her into our Gospel Music Hall of Fame in 1984.

Mission statement in a nutshell.

07/02/2023

There is news of earthquake and subsequent death toll, structural damage and casualties in some parts of the globe.

In other areas of the world, there is news about economic systems collapsing due to failed leadership causing hardship on citizens.

What gospel song comes to your mind right now that can provide words of comfort and hope to a victim of any of these current woes?

Me: Kirk Franklin's LEAN ON ME

I want to see these guys span many decades. They resonate with many gospel youths globally.

I want to watch them grow and evolve in the different seasons of life, sharing their stories of their walk with God as individuals and as a group.

Congrats to Maverick City crew.
