  • Rebecca St. James

    Rebecca Jean Fink (née Smallbone; born 26 July 1977), known professionally as Rebecca Jean or Rebecca St. James, is an Australian Christian pop rock singer, songwriter and actress. She began performing in Australia in the late 1980s and released her first full-length studio album in 1991. She was signed to ForeFront Records in 1993, releasing her major label debut the following year. St. James rose to fame in the late 1990s with her RIAA certified Gold albums God and Pray, the latter of which won a Grammy Award in 1999 for Best Rock Gospel Album, and her holiday album Christmas. The albums spawned multiple singles, including "God," "Go and Sin No More," and "Pray." Since then she has established herself as one of the most prominent musical artists in contemporary Christian music (CCM), with five additional full-length studio albums: Transform, Worship God, If I Had One Chance to Tell You Something, I Will Praise You, and Kingdom Come. Staple songs such as "Wait for Me," "Reborn," "Song of Love," "Alive," "Shine Your Glory Down" and "Battle Is the Lord's" have all been derived from these releases. She has earned nine No. 1 hits on Christian radio and has sold nearly two million albums since starting her career. St. James is also an accomplished author and actress. To date, she has released over a dozen published books, narrated a documentary, and acted in nine films (including lead roles in Sarah's Choice and A Strange Brand of Happy), the musical stage show !Hero, and a VeggieTales episode ("An Easter Carol"). She is also an outspoken sexual abstinence and anti-abortion advocate, a spokesperson for Compassion International, the sister of Joel and Luke Smallbone, who comprise the duo for KING & COUNTRY, and the wife of Foster the People's former bassist Jacob "Cubbie" Fink.

  • Revival (2001) (Petra studio album)

    Revival is the nineteenth studio album by the Christian rock band Petra. Released on November 20, 2001, it is the band's first album on Inpop Records, a label founded by Peter Furler of the Christian Australian rock band Newsboys. It is Petra's third praise album following their two Petra Praise albums of the 1990s. Revival is more modern worship oriented, especially since it is the popularity of the moment of recent albums by Michael W. Smith, Rebecca St. James, Third Day, Delirous? and upcoming Christian worship artist Chris Tomlin. This is the first Petra album to feature songs not written by founder Bob Hartman. Hartman returns from retirement since the three band members Lonnie Chapin, Pete Orta and Trent Thomason left and plays guitar on the album and joins lead singer John Schlitt and drummer Louie Weaver (this will be Weaver's final album as a drummer) and brought in guest musicians to fill in the rhythm section including fellow CCM rock artist and bassist Rick Cua. Revival is produced by Jason Halbert and Dwayne Larring. This is the first Petra album not to chart. To accompany Revival, a DVD documentary about the band features interviews with key players in their history, fellow musicians and exclusive concert footage from the archives of band members.

  • Rich Mullins

    Richard Wayne Mullins (October 21, 1955 – September 19, 1997) was an American contemporary Christian music singer and songwriter best known for his worship songs "Awesome God" and "Sometimes By Step." Three of his albums were listed in CCM Magazine's 100 Greatest Albums in Christian Music and "Awesome God " was listed at number one on the 100 Greatest Songs in Christian Music. His songs have been recorded by numerous Christian artists and groups like Amy Grant, Michael W. Smith, Rebecca St. James, Third Day, Caedmon's Call, Carolyn Arends, Jars of Clay and Hillsong United. At the time of his death in 1997, Mullins was the most beloved troubadour in CCM and probably came as close to anyone else in the field to being regarded as a "saint." Mullins was famous for his gentle demeanor, his simple lifestyle, his love for children and his overwhelming compassion for the poor. Many of his songs like "Sing Your Praise to the Lord" and "Awesome God" have already become staples in modern hymnody. Mullins had a distinctive talent both as a performer and a songwriter. His compositions showed distinction in two ways: unusual and sometimes striking instrumentation and complex lyrics that usually employed elaborate metaphors. Mullins did most of his composing and performing on piano and acoustic guitar, but he also had a prodigious talent for obscure instruments. He displayed arguably virtuoso skills on the hammered and lap dulcimers and the Irish tin whistle.

  • Notability on Wikipedia

    What is "notability" on Wikipedia? According to Wikipedia, notability in music has to be an artist or group that is notable in a particular genre and deserves to be written in article form. (In other words, what are they famous for?) Artists and groups have to have acclaimed albums, win awards like the Grammys and chart on Billboard and Wikipedia has to have resources like where they got the information from. It has to come from secondary resources such as newspapers and magazines. But, in Christian music, information like that is limited and scarce. If I do an article in Wikipedia about an album, let's say for example, Sandi Patty's first professional recording album Sandi's Song from 1979. I did an article about this album, but unfortunately, Wikipedia would not accept the article because it was considered "not notable." Articles that are not notable will be deleted. In order for the article to be notable, Sandi's Song has to chart on the Billboard charts and win some awards. I'm afraid the people at Wikipedia do not understand how artists like Sandi Patty got their start in Christian music. Here at CCM Encyclopedia, there is no notability in the articles and especially in discographies. The articles I write will be from resources taken from Wikipedia. There will be no secondary resources either. The articles I write will be acceptable from me and to me. I don't need Wikipedia to look for those things they mentioned. Too many restrictions. Now I can write articles with ease and just take my time. I hope you enjoy reading about the Christian artists I will post and write about...but without the Wikipedia rules.
