Gospel Classics is very excited to Welcome HMG/Renewed Records Recording Artist/Writer "Rebecca Linda Smith" to our site!

**NewsFlash**

Rebecca Linda Smith was one of the Top 5 Nominees for Female Vocalist of the Year for Inspirational Country Music (ICM) Awards  held Sunday, November 4, 2007 at the Acuff Theater in Nashville, Tennessee.

Dr. Robert Frank Smith made the Top 10 list of candidates for Songwriter of the Year 2007. 

Rebecca Linda (Garcia) Smith was born into a military family and spent most of her young life 
between the United States and Germany. She started singing at four years of age and sang 
in school functions and in churches throughout Europe during her teenage years. As Rebecca Linda 
grew in her faith, her singing also grew and became a form of ministry. Music has always played 
a major role in her life.
Rebecca Linda's life took many twists and turns that always seemed to point to God's purpose for 
her future. She became a public school teacher for a few years prior to getting a direct commission 
in the U.S. Army. She served on active duty as an Army officer for three years and then two years 
in the Reserves after she returned to teaching. She obtained a master's degree in counseling and 
ministered to students and families during her teaching career. She continued to sing in churches, 
at weddings, memorial services, and at various social and community events during this phase of her 
life. Yet, she always had a burning desire to sing for the Lord on a full-time basis, hence her 
ministry as Rebecca Linda Smith-Renewed.
Rebecca Linda's first CD, "All For You", confirmed that this was the direction God intended for 
her life. The title song was written by her former recording manager, George Arriola, founder of Joy Records in El Paso, Texas and it summed up what she felt her life was all about in serving the Lord. The other songs are those that have touched her life and renewed her desire to sing for Him as a ministry. 


 Rebecca Linda's second CD, Jesus' Grace, has been released via HMG Nashville under her own record label, RENEWED RECORDS. Distribution is nationwide and worldwide.  It has a common theme in most of the songs—that we are all sinners saved by Jesus' grace—and a powerful and anointed message of eternal hope in each song. We will be adding a website, www.renewedrecords.com, for our new record label. You can also visit my artist website at www.rlsrenewed.com. "Jesus Grace" contains 14 songs (12 original ), most written or co-written by Rebecca Linda and her husband, Robert Frank, that have the wonderful country music live band sound.  The album also includes the inspirational country music video song, "Do You Know Me" and a gospel song, "Prisoner of Love," duet with Ms. Dottie Rambo, a living legend and Queen of Gospel Music. 

"God has blessed me with my driving force from my devoted songwriter husband and soul mate, Dr. Robert Frank Smith. It amazes me how God took my music ministry and completed the circle after my first CD by suddenly giving Robert Frank the gift of writing lyrics to songs that are now touching so many hearts and lives. His beautiful gospel and inspirational song lyrics put to music are a major part of the "Jesus' Grace" CD.  God had always planned for the two of us when He felt the time was right."

Rebecca Linda prays that these CDs will touch lives and serve to restore those who need a renewal in their spiritual walk and commitment to the Lord or just provide a warm touch from Jesus Christ. Rebecca Linda not only sings Southern Gospel Music, she has crossed the boundaries into  Christian Contemporary and is Crossing over into the Mainstream Inspirational Country.  Rebecca Linda lives with her husband in El Paso near their son, and his wife, Ivy, both of whom serve the Lord in their own Christian ministries. Rebecca Linda and Robert Frank have been traveling to churches in Florida, New Mexico, and Texas since the release of her first CD, "All For You." They are looking forward to continuing travels throughout the country and abroad as they share God's message through personal testimony, music and song. 

Please visit our website and click "Updates" at bottom of Home Page for more complete information about all the projects we are working on including "Hope," an inspirational CD that is finished and will be released soon. Title song of that CD was written and recorded by Rebecca Linda and inspired by her son and daughter-in-law who are fostering and in process of adopting three young children, all siblings.

****The Jesus' Grace CD is NOW AVAILABLE.  We also have a music video (for $10) of the inspirational song, "Do You Know Me," the 14th and last song on the album which is now being played on mainstream country stations throughout the country. Other songs on the album are being played nationally and globally on Christian Country, Southern Gospel, and Contemporary Radio with several songs climbing near the top of Christian Country and Southern Gospel Charts.

Gospel Classics Welcomes Chord of  Three

Chord of Three
Chord of Three is a trio from a family steeped in a tradition of gospel music. They bring to the stage a blend of harmony that only family members can generate. Sisters Brenda Woodson and Judy Whaley, along with lead singer Melissa McCullough, create a unique blend of voices with a fresh sound yet still maintain that original old time spirit of good gospel music. They live near the Nashville, TN area and sing in churches and concerts.
Chord of Three was awarded the Music City Gospel Showcase Favorite Female Group of the Year in 2003 and 2006. They were also nominated in the Trio of the Year category in the first round ballot for the 2005 and 2006 CCMA awards and in the southern gospel category for the prestigious 2006 Dove Awards. They have had several songs on major gospel industry charts such as U S Gospel News, CCMA Power Source, and Country Gospel Music Guild. In 2006, It Was Love, the title cut from their current project charted in the top 20 of the Power Source Christian Country Top 100. Another radio single from the same project, Are You Washed In The Blood hit #1 on the Country Gospel Music Guild Top 80. They have made appearances with Don Frost on the Music City Gospel Showcase telecast, with Jimmy Snow on TCT, and with Roger Neal & Friends Sing For MS, The Miracle of Christmas.

They sing a variety of Christian music and their latest project, It Was Love includes southern gospel, traditional, country gospel and one contemporary selection. Even though the southern gospel genre best suits their style, they enjoy singing and performing other types of Christian music. The mission of Chord of Three is to lead in worship and bring honor and glory to our Heavenly Father and His Son, Jesus Christ.

There he learned to love God, sing and play the guitar.As a teenager Lyle had his own live 30 minute weekly radio show at WAIN in Columbia, KY. Helen heard him on the radio before they met. She fell in love with his voice and said "I've just GOT to meet this guy"! A few weeks later Lyle and a friend of his happened to visit the church Helen attended. His friend introduced them, and they have been making beautiful music ever since. Helen is an accomplished singer who has appeared on The Nashville Network, three times.

From Gail Cupples of Victory Voice Ministries

I felt the call of God on my life after I accepted Jesus as my personal Savior and Lord to spread His Word through Song. Though many trials and tribulations tried to STOP this call. After years of stumbling and falling I began to be more determined every day to answer God's call on my life. I began to sing in Church, Nursing Homes, Retirement Centers, Hospitals, Veteran's Nursing facilities, Festivals, and other Special Events. I felt God's anointing so strong as I would sing praises that up lifted my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. For without Him I am nothing. Greater is He that is in me than He that is in the world. 

I feel God's blessings more and more each day! { TO GOD BE THE GLORY!} I praise him daily for all the wonderful opportunities that have helped to lift my voice of rejoicing and praise in song, all around the world. One of my favorite bible verses can be found in Psalm 100:2 {Serve the Lord with gladness: come before His presence with singing!} I do enjoy singing for Jesus.

I have had the privilege in being blessed to record original songs that were composed and written by my family and self. I consider it such an honor to have a chance to take part in the making of this inspirational music. God has opened new doors for me to join The WILSONS in singing concerts & Revivals etc. Brother Marvin & Sister Gracie Wilson are very dear friends. Brother Marvin was my Pastor for several years at "The Lighthouse" in Middleton,TN. My children attended school there as well, I knew that they were in good hands with the Wilsons. I am also expanding into promotions with Pat Cole in "Celebrate The Gospel," We are having concerts in the Batesville Civic Center in Batesville,MS. With the suggestion of Rev. Wayne Graham I have joined NACMAI { North America Country Music Association I'ntl }and had the privilege of meeting so many nice people. With heartfelt gratitude, I extend to my family and friends, for all of their love and support of my ministry, my most sincere thanks. Gail Cupples

Gospel Classics Extends a Warm Welcome to "Rev. Jim Russ "

This inspired Jim and helped him tremendously to catapult his

ministry. In 1999, Jim's project, "Still Holding On" was recorded and opened doors to Missouri, Kentucky, Georgia, Alabama, Tennessee, Ohio ,West Virginia, Oklahoma, and Mississippi.

1999 brought great success to Jim as he received nomination from the CGMA for Shepherd of the year, Male Vocalist of the year, Entertainer of the year and Songwriter of the year. In 2000 Jim Won the Horizon Award for the ICMA Germany . Jim's newest CD God and Country is getting great reviews and airplay. He is # 2 on the Roots Gospel Music chart and 67 in the top 100 roots chart. You can see the songs at his website and listen to the clips.

His ministry, now known as "Revival Fires Ministries" is about seeing Souls Saved, Healed and Delivered as Bro. Jim is an Evangelist, Pastor of Bethesda Chapel in Old Town Maine as well as a DJ and a Country Gospel Artist. His daughters, Jamie, and Jennifer, are married and live in Mississippi with his 4 grandchildren.
Jim seeks your prayer for him, and his ministry as he travels this long road for Jesus. He asks that you lift him up in every prayer as the road gets longer and a little harder to travel. He extends all His love to everyone and wants you to remember, " Give Praises To The King of Kings And The Lord of Lords, Jesus Christ!" With folks like Jim Russ around, it'd be hard not to.
