WHEN CALLS THE HEART The Dance SYNOPSIS:

New miners arrive in Coal Valley to help with the final stages of reopening the mine and the town decides to celebrate with a dance at the end of the week. One of the new miners, BILLY HAMILTON has taken a special interest in Elizabeth and she is flattered by the attention. Meanwhile, pregnant widow CARLA NOONAN has moved in with Abigail and Elizabeth so the women can keep an eye on her for the remainder of her pregnancy. As Elizabeth and Billy’s relationship develops, Jack becomes suspicious of Billy’s motives for pursuing Elizabeth so persistently. New miner, DEWITT GRAVES, takes a special interest in MARY DUNBAR, the mother of one of Elizabeth’s students. CALEB DUNBAR is irked by this man hanging around his mother and seeks help from Elizabeth. Later, Elizabeth attends the dance with Billy and Mary accompanies DeWitt. Caleb crashes the dance wearing his deceased father’s suit in an attempt to win back his mother’s attention, Mary is deeply moved and promises to be more aware of Caleb’s feelings. After the dance, Carla goes into a false labor while Abigail tends to her. Jack tries to warn Elizabeth that Billy is not who he says he is after receiving a telegram from Billy’s former employer. Elizabeth does not want to hear what Jack has to say and storms off. The next day, Elizabeth and Billy go on a date. After Caleb’s gesture at the dance, DeWitt and Mary have slowed down their courtship while DeWitt tries to get to know Caleb. He uses the annual “Miner’s Games” as an opportunity to interact with Caleb, but it backfires when he and Caleb fail to win the egg toss. During the games, Billy and Jack compete for Elizabeth’s affections. After the games, DeWitt stops trying to win Caleb’s approval and instead opts for an honest conversation, which ends with Caleb inviting DeWitt over for dinner. Meanwhile, Elizabeth and Billy are chatting after the games when Billy mentions Elizabeth’s sisters, sisters that she never told Billy about, and her suspicion arises. Elizabeth goes to Jack to talk about Billy’s slip up and that night they catch Billy attempting to skip town. Carla gives birth to twins that night.

MEET ABOUT A MILE Sometimes the most accomplished artistry is birthed out of the most trying adversity, which coupled with the chemistry that comes from the bond of brotherhood, puts Word Records newcomers About A Mile well beyond their years. Adam, Levi and Luke Klutinoty make up the trio of early twenty-somethings who hail from the working class town of Butler, Pennsylvania (just outside of Pittsburgh), and can remember embracing their musical instincts as early as they did a devout Christian faith, first modeled by their extremely hard working father, a steel mill staffer who always managed to make ends meet for his family of eight thanks to a firm reliance on the Lord. “We always loved playing music together for as long as we can remember, from banging on pots and pans at 6 and 7, to hearing our dad write songs when we were kids, to writing songs and having jam sessions with our friends as we got older,” remembers front man Adam Klutinoty. “My dad always told us, ‘I don’t care what you do, just honor the Lord and don’t work in the steel mill.’ That was engrained in our minds at such a young age that we started About A Mile right out of high school, took the first tour that was available, literally slept in the dirt and on the concrete because we couldn’t afford hotel rooms and played to whoever would feed us.” As the guys get ready to release their debut record to the world at large, they’re hoping to impart that very message upon listeners on all sides of the faith line, enhanced all the more by the brothers’ unabashed authenticity, vulnerability and sincerity. With its unwavering commitment to faith no matter how severe the trial, it’s no surprise the group named itself About A Mile, boldly referencing the suffering then triumph of a crucified and risen Christ. “We learned from a study that Jesus carried His cross About A Mile, and that’s where our band name comes from,” sums up Adam. “When we felt called to play music for the rest of our life, there was never any doubt that we would do it for His glory and treat our ministry like He did when carrying the cross. He carried a cross that we deserved to be nailed to About A Mile so he could die for us. We just want to serve others as best as we can and use all our strength and ability to honor God, carrying our cross as far as we possibly can.”

IMPERIALS THE ULTIMATE COLLECTION ALBUM OVERVIEW: In 1964, the Beatles invaded America. At the same time, Southern Gospel super-

star Jake Hess of the Statesman Quartet decided to hand-pick the best singers he could find to put together what he would call a “super group,” that would be known as the IMPERIALS: Hess, Armond Morales, Sherrill Nielson, Gary McSpadden and Henry Slaughter on piano. Six years later, the Beatles broke up...but now 50 years later, the Imperials sail on! In the late 60s and early 70s, this “super group” certainly lived up to their moniker as they experienced the kind of mainstream “crossover” success that most artists only dream about. They recorded and toured with none other than Elvis Presley, as well as the well-loved singer and television personality, Jimmy Dean, with whom they appeared as regulars on his weekly TV show. Sold out shows in Las Vegas, Reno, Lake Tahoe and a myriad of major TV guest shots were commonplace for the group in the early ‘70s. But instead of pursuing a secular career like their contemporaries, The Oak Ridge Boys, the Imperials made the pivotal decision to return to the Gospel world and the rest is history!

By the time the Imperials came to sign with Word Records in 1976, the group had already been honored with four Dove Awards, including three wins as “Male Group of the Year,” and their first award in the then-new category of “Contemporary Album of the Year” for No Shortage the foursome’s last album for Benson Records. That record was honored with a Grammy for “Best Gospel Album” that same year and the Imperials had the distinction of being the first Christian artist to perform on the Grammy Awards telecast. These were all fitting milestones for a group that pushed the boundaries of traditional Southern Gospel music and pioneered a new kind of quartet - one that would help define this emerging genre of Contemporary Christian Music. During their years with Word, the Imperials would make a series of landmark recordings that not only raised the standards for the industry at large, but contributed a catalog of songs that remains among the most enduring in all of Gospel music. So, it is from those 10+ years that we offer this ultimate collection of hits from one of the most important and influential groups in the history of Contemporary Christian Music - the legendary IMPERIALS.

RUSS TAFF THE ULTIMATE COLLECTION ALBUM OVERVIEW: With 5 Grammy Awards and 9 Dove Awards to his credit, RUSS TAFF has been hailed by Billboard Magazine as “the single most electrifying voice in Christian music.” That voice was first heard on some of the biggest songs of the late 70’s as Russ gained recognition as lead singer for the legendary Imperials. He was “The Voice” behind award-winning songs and albums that successfully brought the quartet into this new world of Contemporary Christian Music with songs like “The Trumpet Of Jesus,” “I’m Forgiven,” and “Praise The Lord.” Eager to experience and explore all aspects of music, Taff left the IMPERIALS after four-and-a-half years to pursue a highly successful solo career at Word’s Myrrh Records. And over the next decade, Russ captured the imagination of the music industry by releasing a series of innovative works that pushed the boundaries of contemporary Christian music. Russ’ lyrics, often co-written with his wife Tori, chronicled his personal spiritual path. Soaring, aching, raucous or tender, the songs Russ chose to wrap his one-of-a-kind voice around were unflinchingly honest. Artistically, Russ was always authentic but never predictable. His eclectic taste was reflected in his recordings and live concerts, as he drew from all genresRock, Pop, Blues, Southern Gospel, Black Gospel, and even Country. Russ Taff: The Ultimate Collection is “The Voice” at his very best! Pulled from this first five solo projects with Word, this collection features the biggest hits from one of the most gifted and recognizable singers in the history of Contemporary Christian Music - the incomparable Russ Taff!

SONGLIST: 01. Jeremiah 02. We Will Stand 03. Unto The Lamb 04. Not Gonna Bow 05. Here I Am 06. Silent Love 07. Rock Solid

08. Walk Between The Lines 09. Believe In Love 10. I Still Believe 11. Winds Of Change 12. Farther On 13. I Cry 14. Love Is Not A Thing 15. God’s Unchanging Hand

A MESSAGE FROM RUSS TAFF: Sitting down and listening to these songs sure brought back a flood of memories and emotions! They represent more than just career highlights to me, it’s like listening to a personal soundtrack of my life-every pain and failure, every triumph and success of those years are all woven into the words and music we’ve gathered together for this collection. In these songs, I can hear the sincerity of that young man first starting out, who wanted nothing more than to honor God with my talent. I can also hear the growing disillusionment and confusion of the years I spent struggling to overcome the trauma of my childhood. I wrestled with the image of the harsh God I had been raised to fear, the one I could never please, whose approval I could never win. But mercifully and miraculously, I finally found the real Jesus, full of love, compassion and grace- and that changed everything. These songs are my musical testimony, and I hope they remind you of all the seasons God has brought you through, as well. He loves us beyond all reason, and there’s so much more to come! Thank you for listening. I Still Believe, Russ

CARMAN BEGINNINGS ALBUM OVERVIEW:

Carman Domenic Licciardello is an enigma in Christian music. Often described as part evangelist - part Vegas showman, his concerts were more like a rock & roll Billy Graham Crusade than a Christian music event. And how does one classify the music of Carman? Is it pop, comedy, Broadway, rap, country, rock or soul? The answer is yes-to all. If there is any original trademark to Carman’s repertoire, it would be identified as a ‘story song’ - a combination of drama, comedy, satire, acting, singing, and preaching, all woven together by an unpredictable wit that can only be described as a full length feature film in 7 minutes! In 1990 Billboard Magazine recognized Carman’s influence in Christian music by naming him the first “Contemporary Christian Artist of the Year.” He has received 15 gold and platinum albums and videos and has sold over 10 million records. Carman holds attendances records for the largest solo Christian concerts in history with 80,000 outdoors in Charlotte, North Carolina and 50,000 in Johannesburg, South Africa. He had the longest #1 record on Billboard CCM sales chart at 33 weeks. His The Champion record stayed on the Billboard overall sales charts for a record 168 weeks! Carman: Beginnings features some of Carman’s most recognizable songs including signature songs like “The Champion,” “Lazarus, Come Forth,” “Revive Us, Oh Lord” and duets with Cindy Morgan and Kim Boyce.

SONGLIST: 01. The Champion 02. Revive Us, Oh Lord 03. Lazarus, Come Forth 04. Blessed Is He Who Comes 05. Somewhere Within The Heart (w/ Cindy Morgan) 06. Abundance of Rain 07. Fear Not My Child (w/ Kim Boyce) 08. His Mercy Endures Forever 09. Love Can 10. The Light Of Jesus To The World

BLENDED WORSHIP CHRISTMAS MUSICAL A Christmas Festival of Praise for Blended Worship

WHAT A GLORIOUS NIGHT

Blended Worship Christmas Musical

Created by BRADLEY KNIGHT and DALE MATHEWS Arranged and Orchestrated by BRADLEY KNIGHT

Songs of celebration, songs of promise, songs of joy and hope, all combine in this epic new Christmas musical, What A Glorious Night, to deliver heroic songs of high praise blended with intimate moments of worship and reflection. What A Glorious Night is a Christmas Festival of Praise for Blended Worship, designed to lead your congregation in a time of rejoicing as your choir celebrates the birth of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Arranged by Bradley Knight and built around the title song made popular by Sidewalk Prophets, this new musical explores the miraculous setting surrounding that first Christmas long, long ago when, on a wonder-filled, starlit night, angels ushered in the arrival of our promised Redeemer, Savior and King. Beginning with the soaring vocals and sweeping orchestral tones of “Sing, Choirs of Angels,” to the festive colors of “It's Christmas,” the worshipful sounds of “Behold the Savior,” to the powerful, authoritative voice heard in “Of the Father, to the World,” What A Glorious Night proclaims the awe and majesty of Christmas like nothing you've heard before. Choirs everywhere will be inspired to raise their voices and sing out the Good News! And we pray that, when combined with the unique visual experience provided by the DVD Accompaniment Track, your presentation of What A Glorious Night will carry your church into an unparalleled Christmas season of worship and praise!

"Born thy people to deliver, born a Child and yet a King, Born to reign in us forever, now Thy gracious Kingdom bring." God's people had long awaited a King. Scriptures prophesied of His coming, and with great desire and longing His people waited. To some, when He finally came, the simplicity of His birth seemed to contradict the magnitude of His purpose. Born in a humble stable... "Born a Child and yet a King"; Prophecy foretold it... "Unto us a Child is born, unto us a Son is given... And the government will be upon His shoulder. And His name will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace." Thus was the stage set for the day when Earth received her King. Veteran arranger and respected leader in the field of contemporary evangelical church music, Marty Parks once again lends his pen and arranging expertise to bring us his latest Senior Adult Choir Musical for Christmas, When Earth Received Her King. Hallmarks of his distinctive arranging style include thoughtful, Biblically-inspired songs and narration; accessible, easy-to-sing vocals; and inspiring orchestrations, all composed with that special blend of Marty Parks wit, spirit, wisdom, and musical sensibility, purposed by His love for the Church, its music, and his Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. When Earth Received Her King features new songs written by Marty Parks, a nostalgic song by his father, the late Joe E. Parks, along with favorite carols and select songs of the season, all designed to bring praise to Jesus Christ, the King of Kings and Lord of Lords. Crafted especially for Senior Adult Choir, the choral book features large print and no repeats, offering your Senior Adult Choir the perfect resource with which to celebrate the Christmas season and proclaim the birth of our King.

Simply WordKidz Christmas Musical

Ginger Breadhouse, Carolyn Bells, Holly Branch, Candy Cane, Mary, and…Ned, Ted and Jed! These are a few of the names to be found among the cast of the new Simply WordKidz Christmas musical, The Christmas Cross! Created by Jeff Slaughter, with tracks produced and arranged by the team of Preston and Spencer Dalton, The Christmas Cross is a super-easy-to-learn, 27-minute musical designed to help you celebrate the season with the perfect setting for your kids choir! In the opening scene, Miss Carolyn Bells, our children's choir director, is leading the kids through their first rehearsal for this year's Christmas Extravaganza. As they begin to share their thoughts on Christmas, the heart of the story comes to the forefront as Mary begins to tell everyone about the Christmas Cross—a very special ornament with special significance—an heirloom, handed down by her grandmother. As she explains the meaning behind the ornament..."You can't have Christmas without the Cross...", this fun, lighthearted musical is beautifully and simply transformed into a powerful message about the love of God and the message of the Gospel. Full of great new songs, in tandem with traditional carols and a humor-filled, Biblically-sound script, The Christmas Cross highlights Jeff Slaughter's signature brand of creativity. And, for the first time, he brings his unique style and infectious spirit to the Simply WordKidz Series, a fresh line of EZ-to-Sing-EZ-to-Perform musicals designed for both excellence and accessibility by the smallest of choirs, or for choirs with little rehearsal time. Bring an extra dose of Christmas cheer to your performance through the use of the production-enhancing DVD Accompaniment Track available, from WordKidz.

Deck the hall! Trim the tree! Light the lights! It’s Christmastime! And that means it’s time to sing! We love to sing at Christmas more than any other time of year.

We sing because it’s a season of joy. We sing because it is a tradition. We sing because laughter fills the air, chestnuts are roasting on the street corner, bell-ringers are collecting for charities, sidewalk Santas are Ho-Ho-Ho-ing, and children everywhere (and some adults, too) are thrilled with the sights and sounds of that most wonderful time of the year! ‘Tis the season to sing!
