It’s the next to last episode of Sunday Best 3 and y’all know I’m feeling some kind of way, right? You always know the show wwill eventually end but it doesn’t make it any less bittersweet (I’ve been using that word a lot lately, Jesus be a thesaurus all around me every day.) What am I going to do on Sunday nights? How am I going to get my fix? Ahhhhhhhhh! But let’s get to the show. Read the rest of this entry »

Let’s just hit it!!!!

Well folks, it looks we have another situation going on in this world we call gospel music or more so the “church world.”  I’ve always maintained and believed that although our beliefs and value systems are and should be different than the rest of the world, at the end of the day, this is the world we live in… (I know a few of the saints will take it a step further and go “we’re in this world, but not of this world.”! Ha! But it’s true.) So with that, the church is simply a smaller sample of the larger world and will have many of the same elements. You have nice people in the world; you’ll have nice people in church. You have mean people in the world; you’ll have mean people in church. You’ll have liars, cheaters, thieves and freaks in the world at large, and the church has some of those too. So, needless to say I guess that the church isn’t immune to legal issues.

As I’m sure you know as it’s been reported in both mainstream news media and some gospel sites (Check DaGospeltruth.com and 1800gospel.com’s coverage) that Darin McAllister, husband of Praise & Worship GURU Judith Christie-McAllister, was indicted on 19 counts of wire and bank fraud last Wednesday, May 19 in Nashville, TN. What I think makes this story more interesting is that Darin was an FBI agent. Read the rest of this entry »

Sup folks! Sorry for being late on this. I was actually on a plane trying to get home from New Orleans when the episode aired and couldn’t blog right after the show.  (And we won’t talk about the thunderstorm that delayed me even more..) So umm yeah, I’m a little late, but y’all are going to let me slide right?

Well, here we are in our last audition city New Orleans, LA; Sunday Best’s new home for Season 3. Let’s get started, shall we? Read the rest of this entry »

Ok, so we’re stateside again. Welcome to the Detroit auditions.  It’s so coooooold in the D! (Nah, it really was!)

Now I’m going to go ahead and get this out.  Yes, there were a lot more great singers that auditioned than what you saw. Read the rest of this entry »

Before I begin, I’d like to say that this situation is a perfect example of why so many people are jaded and/or can’t be bothered with “church.”  You’ll see what I mean. Read the rest of this entry »

This one might be long or short. I just won’t know until I’m done typing. My apologies for not posting this immediately after the show Sunday like I normally do, Read the rest of this entry »
