This is the best moment in my music career. It gives me that lift to go forward for the cause of Christ!... Reference media comments and airplay, what a wonderful service NCM have for an unknown independent artist. I recommend this service to any artist that needs recognition for his God given talents. I have had literally hundreds of stations playing my music as well as comments leaning toward 100 with 90 of them being very positive!!!! This is all in the past few months!!! The honesty of the journalists, dj's, and record executives is very valuable. I even had a few humorous ones that I loved!!!! My song, 'Husband Loves His Wife' has been a huge success and with 'Heaven Sent The Way' coming out in September I'm excited to hear the comments on this one. I also recommend that artists repeat this service at least once every 4 months because it helps you get known. www.gmirecordsinternational.com If it wasn't for NCM I might still be in my office with stacks of cds not being sold." ... My webhost has informed me that my site page on my website for radio and journalist comments has reached its maximum for comments or stations reporting that they are giving me airplay..

BROOK TRICKETT (RECORD PRODUCER), (LANCASHIRE, ENGLAND) Because of NCM, HTV expressed interest and I spent almost two hours with the HTV news crew this morning and I think it will be a good one. Interest in 'Cool Water' is huge and think that a national news story could be on the cards to the benefit of us all! ...Also, I am now receiving even more enquiries about my CDs thanks to NCM.

While it is nice to see one's name listed with other artists, some well known and some like me, just getting our songs into markets that we never dreamed possible just a few short years ago. Now we have one through NCM. For me, just having my name associated with these folks is a blessing and a plus. As you know, we writer-singers, all have our own way of speaking about Christ. ..God bless New Christmas Music and the singer-song writers for their ongoing efforts to praise Jesus Christ through music." CAPTAIN T (TOM HUNNICUT), ARKANSAS Paul, Thanks for all the feedback. You have provided the best input we have ever received. I feel sure we will get to work on many more projects together.

CHRIS NEWMAN, (VICTORIA, AUSTRALIA) Hello Brother Paul : At the beginning of my journey with you and your associates on the NCM network, Praise The Lord, is my first comment . I am so humble and grateful my music sent to NCM is being accepted favorably worldwide . Consequently with the utterance of these words a flashback in my mind comes of the days on my Daddy's farm in Alabama when the cows came up in the evening for hay, ate it and settled down to chew their cud, I would sing the Milk Cow Blues to them and they would sit contently . I can just see " Old Betsy " just sitting and jacking her jaws. I thought she liked my music ! Although this was years ago, it seems like the duration of the blink of an eye. I look forward to my association with NCM in the days ahead... I thank God for the opportunity to participate in NCM & I appreciate your exemplary leadership in this regard . Heretofore I have found my experience with the NCM group to be an interesting and rewarding experience. It is the best CD of this type I have ever been on as an artist. I have been on ten compilation CDs doing secular music. I have been impressed by some great talent on the NCM label and I'm just grateful I have been a part of this scenario. Thanks for all you have done and continue to effectively promote the Word via Christian music. CLAUDE WALTON (THOMASTOWN, GEORGIA, USA) Since being on NCM#9, I have just signed a distribution deal with Authentic Media for my CD. It will be released in Europe and other parts of the world in October and November...Thank you for forwarding the NCM media-response comments. It's been good to read them. It was also very surprising and encouraging to see that I managed to be in the NCM Top 10 of the charts against stiff competition. We also have received mails from radio stations that want to play some more songs which has been amazing. Thank you again for your help,support..your hard work and for all the comments that we have received so far. It has been good. CLAUDETTE (WEST MIDLANDS, ENGLAND) Paul...this is very helpful information... We will look at supporting your NCMdisc in the New Year...

I wrote to Andrew Cleaton in Leeds, England to tell him how much I enjoyed his song and asked him about his recording techniques etc. He wrote a really nice e-mail back to me ...I think that one side effect of the NCM disks could well be to establish relationships between musicians who would never have been on touch before. Thanks again for your vision. Thanks for the radio playlists. It's been exciting to get the feedback etc. All this has inspired me to get bit more serious about my stuff and I want to get some demos out to artists, producers & publishers who are open to reviewing original material.

NCM is remarkable and I will be submitting more songs in the future!" DOUG GAZLAY, GEORGIA, USA I just thought I would share this with you. I was visiting our local video store when my ears pricked up to some African gospel music that was being played, One thing led to the other and we got talking to the guy who works there. He is a Christian from Uganda. I ended up loaning him NCM#10. He loves it, and has been really blessed by it. In fact, we unexpectedly called into the shop again and he was playing NCM#10 in the shop. That's great to think every one who goes in for a video just might get a blast of NCM#10."

It's good to understand how radio station program hosts are responding to the music, and it's always good to know it is being played. Just want you to know how much you are appreciated. Thanks for your efforts in getting good Christian music out over the airways. Your NCM gospel music compilation CDs are, as others have said, a wonderful idea. What a great way to get the music around to others who, in turn, might play it and, thereby, further extend the reach ... It is my prayer that my music will reach out to as many as may be touched by the message...Your NCM CD is one of the greatest ideas I've run across in some time. I congratulate you on this. Not only does it spread a sound gospel message through music, but it also serves the programming, musical outreach, and other interests of everyone concerned. You're doing a good thing, Paul, and I simply can't tell you how glad I am to be involved. ERV LEWIS (FLORENCE, SOUTH CAROLINA, USA) I want to thank ...all the staff at New Christian Music in their use of I LOVE TO SING (by Vernon Oxford), that showed up at the No. 1 position on the NCM chart...This is a thrill us both: Vernon- the great singer that he is; and me being the writer, producer and publisher.I think we have a winner in a showcase forum that is sure to garner new converts to the great traditional sound of Vernon. I will be using your service again ...After seeing its initial success with you, I am inclined to believe that it just might be the breakout Vernon needs. One woman DJ likes the song so well that she is now using it as her theme; just this morning, Jack Hodge, who has a gospel radio show at Sevierville, Tenn. (I believe it might be syndicated), called me to say that he would be playing the song this Sunday coming...he liked it so well. Vernon sang the song this past Sunday where he attends church; and, Roal Larson of Rocade Records wanted Vernon to sing that song when Vernon was over in Norway...This all seems to show me that we picked the right song for you to use,and I will be thinking about using NCM again...I am totally thrilled with the success Vernon Oxford attained due to your NCM cd compilation...I will use another song soon, as I KNOW that the previous song has gotten lots of airplay; and then, too, lots of music journalists have shown an interest in the music of Vernon. Vernon feels that God is directing our actions now, in regards to his music. EVERETT CORBIN (for VERNON OXFORD) (MURFREESBORO, TENNESSEE, USA) I love it when I see good reports like these I get from NCM. I just hope my song will be heard by a lot of people. If we can convert a few people with the words to the song, it would be a really big blessing. My #2 listing on NCM's chart is really exciting & good news to me. Maybe it will accomplish the goal I had in mind when I wrote it. Convert some none believers who might hear and listen to the words of the song and turn their lives around. That would really be a big blessing. ERNIE ASHWORTH (HARTSVILLE, TENNESSEE, USA) Thanks so much for sending me these NCM charts. I am very excited to see the progress... I am very grateful my song is being played - absolutely thrilled! Thanks so much. The peace of Christ ... "This is terrific! I am forwarding your NCM email notices to my manager's office. Thanks again for sending me all this information. It's very exciting to know 'Noonday Devil' is getting played in so many different countries on so many differnt formats. I don't think it would ever happen like this in the US. Holy Mackerel!" FERNANDO ORTEGA (CALIFORNIA, USA) Thanks Paul I really appreciate all the things you have done for BSW artists as well as many other artists all over the world. FRANK WILSON-President/CEO - BSW Records SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS, USA) My NCM song ('My Grandad')is getting airplay on about 1,000 radio stations in Europe & the USA etc. I am very pleased with the response from DJ's and radio listeners from practically all over the world. It was written about my Grandad, and the important lessons he taught me about life & what White Oak Christian Church (Cincinnati)meant to us/me as a very young boy...and still means to me today! What a great church!"... Thank you so much for the fine job of promoting my music through NCM. I am so very pleased with how well my two songs have been recieved by the European audience. This would not have been possible without your work, and NCM! FRED LEONARD (CINCINNATI, OHIO, USA) Thanks Paul for your latest NCM updates on how my song is doing. I am so pleased that so many have said they like it and will play it on the radio. I am very encouraged and will pass on your promotion NCM CD to any others who would be interested in getting their songs out there... its brilliant to get the responce so far, thanks for all your work Paul, in the Lord Jesus...Thanks Paul for the last follow up reviews, again very pleased that the song is being played, thats what it is all about really, getting the songs to ears. GARY CUNNINGHAM (HERTFORDSHIRE, ENGLAND) Thank you Paul - you are so supportive - I appreciate that!...Thanks for all NCM's encouraging notes and for what you did...I'm very encouraged by that and I seem to be picking up pretty good airplay. Thanks for what you're doing it is most encouraging, and very fascinating to see where the songs get picked up.... thank you very much for the Radio Mike award you gave me last year... thanks for all you are doing. GARTH HEWITT (LONDON, ENGLAND) Thanks for all your help... Yes, we are 'surprised and delighted' at the airplay and the feedback! Other tracking reports we have received here in the States have not been so detailed! I understand completely that DJs might not be so anxious to complete forms, but I surely do appreciate the ones who do complete and return them! It is very helpful to us to get a feel for what the DJ's listeners like in the music they listen to. Thank you for all you are doing to promote Christian music around the world! What you are doing is a real blessing to countless numbers of believers and unbelievers!! There's no way, 'til we get to Heaven, to know who heard the Gospel through the music we recorded and YOU put on the radio!! Thanks, Paul! God bless you! GENE & LAVADA TRIESCH BLANCO, TEXAS, USA Dear Paul, Greetings from Montreat, North Carolina. I dropped this note this week to tell that I'm celebrating my 96th birthday. Our friendship carries on. It never ceased...I'm finding that keeping in touch is more than the hours and days can handle (Psalm 8:7). GEORGE BEVERLY SHEA (NORTH CAROLINA, USA) Thanks for all the work you've done and for forwarding the comments. I am of course overjoyed and praising the Lord. I hope our friendship and venture together will long continue...Just a short note to let you know that it has been confirmed that I will indeed be performing at the Gospel Music Convention in Fraserburgh, Scotland in May next year. Organiser & NCMdisc reviewer, Willie Whyte found my name on your website, he rang me, I sent a CD for the committee to listen to and the rest is history praise the Lord!.."Luke 14:23 - 24 And the lord said to the servant, Go out into the highways and hedges and compel them to come in, so that my house may be filled. For I say to you that none of these men who were invited shall taste of my supper." Thanks to NCM for the invitation to the supper. The encouragement and honesty displayed by those who receive the disc is a great blessing. To say that I'm happy with the response would be an understatement. Never before have I felt more accepted and helped in my ministry since being invited to partake in what the Lord is doing. Thanks to Paul for travelling the highways and for believing in me. God Bless you Paul GEORGE COLLINS (DURHAM COUNTY, ENGLAND) What a wonderful service NCMdisc is to artists such as me. The responses from the media have been wonderfully encouraging and plentiful. NCM is sure to build as news spreads! GEORGE HAMILTON IV, (FRANKLIN, TENNESSEE, USA) Howdy Paul, As always, Many thanks for the NCM News! Cheers! -Geo. V GEORGE HAMILTON V, (NASHVILLE, TENNESSEE, USA) Great that my NCM single made No 1 for a 2nd week,and I've had a great response to the CD and singles from many people overseas as well as here in the UK. Very positive replies.Keep up the good work, GERRY FORD (SCOTLAND) I want to say thank you for the wonderful way you are getting the true Christian message around the world. ... I have been encouraged by the comments received. and encouraged to read of the many many ways you reach out. As a representative of many fine song-writers it is good to know there is a place and opportunity to get the message heard. .. I have enjoyed listening to the different songs and singers ... You are doing good work. GOD Bless... I received the NCM information on "If I Climbed Up On The Cross". Thank you. Usually when a song comes to us from another songwriter we seek to place it with a recording artist's with wide coverage. However on this occasion the song written by Blake Hill had a strong message that spoke to me of where I am today. My prayer was that many would hear the words of the song and that has happened. May it now be recorded by many and so multiply and multiply and pass the message on and touch other's as it has me. The second amazing thing to happen was the very first NCM chart I received from you was from Oamaru Heritage Radio in New Zealand, played on Wyn Machon's Gospel programme. We had just arrived in Oamaru to live and were in the process of unpacking and setting-up home here and was a way away from getting out and meeting people. Well because of your e-mail that it had been played in Oamaru, I e-mailed Wyn and have since been to the radio station and met him that was a joy. Our GOD Is Good GINNY PETERS (OAMARU, NEW ZEALAND) Thank you so much for the compilation of all the NCM reviews on my song... I really do appreciate it. ... it's a worthwhile experience ... You have done a great job with getting the feedback information to me ... There's no way I could have done that on my own. It would have been cost-prohibitive. Thanks again for the great reviews. May God richly bless you always. Your brother in Christ, Glenn Douglas Tubb (Nashville, Tennessee, USA) There are no words adequate to tell you how grateful I am to the Lord for you and your help in getting my music out to another part of this big world! At the risk of sounding super spiritual, I do sincerely believe God is putting together His chosen ones in these last days to do a mighty, but quick work to bring in the final harvest! I want to walk worthy of His calling, and be right where wants me to be. Thank you so much for all you are doing for so many, me included. GLORIA ELLIOT (BRANSON, MO. USA) Thank you for your kind NCM review of Graham's CD. I will pass the notes onto Graham - he will be pleased with it. Kind regards. Val, Pollytone Records on behalf of: GRAHAM FENTON'S MATCHBOX (LONDON, ENGLAND) Thanks Paul for your interesting NCM NEWS. I read it every week. GRAHAM WILLIAMS (MD),AUTHENTIC MEDIA, (MILTON KEYNES, ENGLAND) Thanks for the ongoing good NCM work and linking the planet with good news! I...have had a chance to listen to your NCM product now. Very professional. Blessings from Australia, GRAHAM SCOBIE (AUSTRALIA) Hi Paul this is just to let you know that we had emails from radio stations in Austria and Germany requesting CDs from Gus. I thought you might like to know the end result of your NCM promo-CD. I really don't know if this is usual and I know we're new to all this but DJs seem to be popping up all over the place about Gus's song.I've just had an English one on the phone wanting to interview him. The DJ just come back from Malta and played the song there too. We really are quite bemused but also pleased to hear that so many people seem to be happy with such an overtly Christian song. So again thank you very much for giving Gus this opportunity. Gus is in Poland at the moment so doesn't know yet but thanks very much on his behalf. I can't wait to tell him. Wendy Eyre for:- GUS EYRE (BLACKPOOL, ENGLAND) Your outstanding review of my album left me almost speechless and I must tell you here and now that it brought tears to my eyes, especially coming from a GOD-GIFTED AND GREAT WRITER SUCH AS YOU…Through the years I’ve read dozens of your writings and each time they left me wanting for more....In my view, it cannot get better than this EXCELLENT write up. I really feel in my heart that GOD sent you to me. A million thanks Paul (NCM) for all you’ve done and may GOD ANOINT YOU WITH HIS RICHEST BLESSINGS. HAL WILLIS (MADISON, TENNESSEEE, USA) The band and would like to say thank you for the good review you wrote for our album. We really appreciate it. Thanks again, Paul! Regards, Halvor Halvorsen BIG BULL BAND (NORWAY) Hi Paul,...Hope the project goes well. Regards, HELEN McCABE, KINGSWAY MUSIC, (EASTBOURNE, ENGLAND) Thank you for all your efforts in creating the NCM compilation CD. The Varmints and I have been surprised and delighted to receive the feedback and playlist notifications from around Europe. Having a Top 10 position in the NCM chart was the icing on the cake! We wish you continued success for the future. With warm regards HIGHWAY DAVE (WEST MIDLAND, ENGLAND) Very cool to see al the positive feedback we are getting on Ian. Many thanks IAN ESKILLAN (SUSSEX, ENGLAND (from: Steve Hancock (Press, Promotions & Admin) Furious? Records/Fierce! Distribution Just a quick email to thank NCM for all your hard work with NCM. It's interesting, encouraging and exciting to see the feedback, comments and to have radio stations playing the song. I'm certainly hoping to use the service again!!! and now saving up for the next track. Abundant blessings IAN YATES (ENGLAND) Thank you for your NCM ministry! Steve Bradley IMAGINARY FRIEND (LEICESTER, ENGLAND) I just wanted to say a huge thank-you for including our songs on. I was greatly encouraged by the comments from the various disc jockeys and music consultants, and the fact that the songs recieved such a lot of airplay throughout the world has brought our music to an audience we would have never believed possible before. The whole NCM experience has also given me the desire to get back into the studio once again and start putting an album together. (Watch this space!) You're doing a great job Paul and only someone like yourself could ever have brought all this together. I thank you for your vision and commitment to NCM and artists like ourselves. Keep up the good work and God bless. Colin Elliott for INSIDE OUT, (LISBURN, NORTHERN IRELAND) Dearest Paul, I wanted to take just a little minute from my busy life to personally thank you for complimenting my voice and music. I also wanted to thank you for adding my music. I am working on a new CD with my friend John Mock who adds all those beautiful Celtic sounds to the Dixie Chicks and Maura O Connell ..Again Paul thank you so much for all you do for the Indie Artist. IRISH BERNADETTE (EIRE) Thanks, that must be a fair amount of work that goes into the organising, mailing and the feedback at NCM - an awesome task I should imagine. It is an aspect that must require a great deal of talent and perseverance. It's good for all contributors to have an effective, reasonably priced promotional vent such as NCM. ...I've been receiving your encouraging NCM News and ... am currently fortunate in having my songs produced by Nigel Gray (Famed producer of 'The Police' and 'Banshees) for a debut album and I will be wanting to submit a song for NCMdisc. God bless!.. Thanks for sending your NCM comments. I am extremely impressed with the tracks on NCM#11 - dare I say 'proud' - why not? To be associated with such new releases for Christ makes the heart swell. It puts my music in the best of company. I will offer more songs for NCM over the forthcoming months. Wishing you all every blessing in Christ on your 1st anniversary.... It has definitely been a blessing for me to have had NCM to inform my creative work. I heard of the NCM disc service at about the time I started my leisurely recording project & journey. NCM I believe helped show me who not to forget amongst the collection of songs in which I was to work on and create. At a time when I've had a lot of freedom to please myself musically, NCM has kept me aware of the true source of that opportunity and encouraged me to attempt to remain true to relating a spiritual direction where possible and avoiding 'religious speak' for new listeners. For the songs to test water across the airwaves, and reach ears more experienced and qualified than my own, that, NCM has made easy and very informative through reaction sheets. I am grateful for the facility to develop that has been offered and to be able to give witness to the faith we share in Christ. JAMES JUBE (WALES) Thank you, sir, for your lovely review. I genuinely appreciate your kind comments and your depth of research. I am honored! Have a blessed day! JANET PASCAL (USA) Thanks for the updates on NCMdiscs, Paul. Good job! JANET ST. PIERRE (Assistant to PAT BOONE) (LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA, USA) Within a couple of days of my song being on NCM#5, Kevin Johns from Swansea Radio requested more songs after hearing 'Psalm 148' on NCM#5. He played my album last Sunday which was encouraging. Also, I had and interview and song on 'Daybreak' for BBC Radio Merseyside which went on air a week past Sunday. All thanks to NCMdiscs... Delighted to see NCM ratings - Good to get such positive feedback...Thanks for the encouragement of your charts - radio stations have e-mailed and asked for a copy of the album to play. An interview with BBC Radio Merseyside resulted in a request from the local Wesley Owens shop for a number of CDs. JANIS ENGLISH (WIRRAL/LIVERPOOL, ENGLAND) Thank you Paul.I am so thankful for what you are doing. A radio presenter in England saw my UK tour intinerary in your newsletter. He contacted me, and I was able to sing and share my testimony on live BBC Radio Leeds! Through you, I also made contact with SYD AND LIZ DOYLE and the "Jesus Loves Leicester" crusade. While I was in Leicester, I was able to sing and speak at an outdoor evangelistic event. I was also invited to the final celebration service where I was asked to share my vision for Leicester and the UK with area church leaders. Amazing! Just wanted you to know that God is using you and NCM in ways that you never imagined. All the best.”, JEAN WATSON, (MI, USA) First of all I would like to Praise God for all the airplay I'm getting! When I started this ministry my prayer was that many people would be blessed, edified and encouraged by these songs He has given me to share! I am also thanking Jesus for your integrity and passion in helping others spread His word in song!The NCM comments and emails I receive are both helpful and encouraging to me. JEFF KOENIG (NORTH CAROLINA, USA Here in Florida, I've been receiving your wonderful newsy e-mails for which I thank you.

JEFFREY KRUGER - MBE (ARTIST MANAGER) (FLORIDA, USA) Thank you so much for the opportunity to be on NCM. My schedule has become quite busy. I am a walking, talking and singing miracle. To come from a death-bed to traveling again is nothing more the powerful and wonderful work of Our Lord Jesus...I want to pass on this Praise Report for the Glory and Honour of Our Lord Jesus! Thank you and so many others who prayed for me over the years of sickness. It is truly a wonderful miracle of the Holy Spirit how the Lord has healed me and raised me up to serve the work of His glorious kingdom. I am singing better than ever. Not bad for someone who they thought might never speak again! Praise the Lord!.. I praise Him daily for His continued blessings. I think what you are doing is tremendous in assisting ministries and musicians. JERRY ARHELGER (NASHVILLE, TENNESSEE, USA) Thank you again Paul.

I know that Laura, Hazel, Stuart others are a vital part of NCM. Our gratitude for such a wonderful service. We would highly recommend other artists and media to get involved. It's been great for us and very exciting to be a part of NCM...We had some good news yesterday concerning our NCM#4 song [Christ is alive], some friends of ours were listening to BBC Radio York's morning show and they heard our song on it. That was a bit of a bonus for us as its our local radio station...Joyola are very pleased with the NCM chart and the reaction to it from the wider music media. God's hand is surely moving. It's wonderful that Christian artists are getting such wide exposure like this. What a brilliant way for artists to spread the Gospel via music and build up their ministries at the same time...Thanks for the news letter/ncm chart, I enjoy reading it. NCM are doing a great service for Christian music/musicians. We are sitting here thinking, look at all this wonderful music that is getting heard around the world. People are getting to hear the gospel via NCM that otherwise may of never got to hear it. This is surely amazing. We are listening to songs that we most likely wouldn't have heard if it were not for NCM. It is brilliant [like a breath of fresh air]. Keep up the good work Paul,.there are so many great songs and musicians out there that need a platform such as yours. We thank God for you and ncm and all that you are doing...comments are encouraging/brilliant and its wonderful that we may be getting air play all over the world.

This is a nice bonus for us this week. JOYOLA (DYANE & PETER GOODMAN) YORKSHIRE, ENGLAND Wow! The NCM comments made my day! I commend you and all my fellow artists for making a stunning "breakthrough" in Europe of the Gospel-in-music within the NCMdisc "Tell the World". Response from disc jockeys and journalists has been thrilling because they have been drawn close to Jesus, and now they are willing to share the news with others over the air! I am honoured to be a part of spreading the Gospel... As long as I have breath I will sing for Jesus to people who need to hear the message. Thank you for allowing me to sing to the people of Europe on NCM. JUDY LEIGH (SIKESTON, MISSOURI, USA) Fabulous... just wanted to get that clarified.

Thanks to the writer, Tom Sterbens, Pastor of New Hope Church in Sevierville, Tennessee for his anointed writing. Blessings to NCM for helping to spread the Good News.

They are very encouraging and help me know that I'm on the right path with my music now for this time... I've had a lot of inquiries lately, not only from England, but all over Europe, and also Australia and New Zealand about my recordings. I'm so glad that we were able to re-connect. Warmest love in Christ...I have just found out some wonderful news. I am publishing a song entitled 'COLORS' that is nominated for a Grammy. I am, of course, so excited and I have been emailing a few friends about it.I've wanted to put something on one of your NCM CDs, but wanted to wait and put something new on it. I have been working on a new CD, a very radio-friendly track that I am finishing up that would be perfect -up tempo and sing songy with a very good message. Love in Christ to all! LINDA HARGROVE, (PANACEA,FLORIDA, USA) I just wanted to send a note about how blessed I am by having my very first charting song ever. This has been a dream of mine since I was a little girl. I was wondering if you could maybe send a thank you in your newsletter this week for me, so that I won't miss anyone who's had a part in playing this beautiful song. God is so awesomely good and I know we say it all the time, but sometimes we as Christians don't really realize how true this is. ... I felt God's Annointing upon it. I had no idea it would be released on this NCM compilation CD. God has used this abundantly and above all I could ever ask of think. I just want all of the radio disc jockeys to know how greatful I am that they play this beautiful song ... I'm am so thankful to you, Paul and your staff for this opportunity and to all you who are giving this song airplay. You can't imagine how greatful I am! This had been just one of "His Promises to Me" and I love Him so much. God bless you all. LISA MEADOWS (MARYLAND, USA) I would like to take this chance to say thank you for your help and support in the promotion of the 'Live and PHAAT in London' album and DVD.

I have received emails from all over the world, England, Scotland, Ireland, New Zealand, Australia and others in regards to the NCM song and what radio and others thought of the song. This is very special to me and I just wanted to share it with you. I want to thank all of you for your friendship and support of my musical outreach. I could not do this without you...

I wish to thank Paul Davis; Laura Ewers; the DJs and media around the world; all my fans and friends; and all persons involved for your kind considerations in my behalf in presenting to me the 2006 NCM RADIO MIKE AWARD, as the NCM COUNTRY MALE ARTIST OF THE YEAR --USA. I am truly grateful, deeply humbled and very surprised. If I may be permitted, I wish to accept this award in memory of Grand Ole Opry Country Music Legend Mr. Billy Walker, his wife Bettie, and his two band members, Danny Patton and Charlie Lilly, dear friends all, who where were tragically killed when their touring van wrecked on May, 21, 2006. Billy and Bettie Walker were very supportive of my music, and I appeared on various shows with Billy and The Tennessee Walker Band on the road and in Nashville. Billy and Bettie were the ones who first introduced me to NCM and made me aware of Mr. Paul Davis and his excellent work in Gospel and country music. It came about when a Gospel song I wrote and Billy recorded, entitled "FOR ME," was released world-wide on NCM. Billy and Bettie told me of their very high regard for Mr. Paul Davis. Again, I offer my most sincere thanks for this award, and I also offer my congratulations and best wishes to all of the other award winners and to NCM for its outstanding outreach in sharing the Word of God in song throughout the world.LYNN BECKMAN (SWANTON, MARYLAND, USA) As we close out this wonderful year, I can't thank you enough for all your support of My music.

LYNN DAVIS (TEXAS, USA) Hello Paul - thanks for continuing to send these NCMdiscs....very useful indeed.

It is good to get feedback from a new wider audience, and fun to feature in a chart!

Yours in Christ... Little did I know that when I submitted a track to NCM to be included on your CD, never in my wildest dreams did I expect to see it in the top three of the Euro Country Gospel Charts, and peaking at no 4 in the Euro Gospel Charts. On my last count, I counted roughly 34 radio stations across the world; from, Denmark, Scotland, England, France, Austria, Australia and New Zealand, have all taken the time to listen to a three minute piece of music from an unknown songwriter from Skipton North Yorkshire in the little old United Kingdom. This really is tremendous work and many thanks to YOU, and all who have played 'All Of Me' across the airwaves. MARTIN DAWSON (YORKSHIRE, ENGLAND) Greetings from Nashville!

My husband J.R. and I are just thrilled to see the response and know that so many radio stations are playing my new song. We were especially touched (at this time of the home-going of the Pope) to see such a huge amount of airplay in Italy. Wow! Please let people know that I have a web site. It’s www.honeytree.org and I would love to have people contact me. We have a store on the site so that folks can purchase product, too. The new CD should be ready to go in just a few more weeks. Our prayer is that people from the developed churches all over the world will be stirred up to reach out to our brothers and sisters in places like Pakistan, and other countries where Christians are the minority. When we show love and reach out to help, it really makes a difference! Love in Jesus," NANCY HONEYTREE MILLER (INDIANA, USA) Thanks to NCM I have finally got my music onto the airwaves across Europe (including airplay and an interview with BBC Lincoln).The response from my song has been amazing and makes me feel proud of what I am doing.

You are all incredible folks and I pray God's greatest blessings for all of you.Blessings, PAM SEAMAN (CUMBERLAND, MARYLAND, USA) "Well, we're back in tandem again, aren't we? My thanks to NCM for helping make England and Europe aware of "Thank You Billy Graham". For a long time now, I've felt this tribute will resonate with millions, thankfully while Billy's still with us (he has expressed his love and gratitude for it several times) and certainly when he goes to his glorious eternal reward, I think the world media will clamor for it then, and I want it well in place and known before that. So I thank you again. ... I was on the platform with him in a big L.A. coliseum crusade some years ago, and then again in Washington, DC, and then Shirley and I were on the platform with him and Bev Shea and Cliff Barrows at the Rose Bowl this January. Each time was a monumental honour and a goose-bumpy experience -- in spite of our 35 or 40 year friendship. It's just the "aura" (halo?) over and around Billy that keeps you aware that he is one of God's apostles. " PAT BOONE (LOS ANGELES, USA) Hello Brother Paul, May the blessing of our Lord be with this day. I would like to thank you and your team for taking my music through out Europe I could not have done a better job by myself, bless you.

TERRY TALBOT of MASON PROFFIT BAND (CALIFORNIA, USA) Thank you for your service to Christ through your NCM endeavors. We are grateful to have recently been listed #1 on the Country Gospel Chart, and #2 on the NCM Euro Chart with our song entitled "My Saviour Paid It All". Thank you for everthing else you do for the Kingdom. The Messengers are looking forward to what God has in store this coming year. We pray he uses our new releases through NCM to touch hearts and lives! TOMMY CLARK, (THE MESSENGERS, GORMAN, TEXAS) Love the NCM input coming in...and I am getting phone calls and e-mails, which is nice. God bless... After listening to all of the songs and reviewing the various incoming e-mails it is plain to see two things come to mind concerning NCM and the artists using it as a form to reach others. First - there are a number of unique and gifted singer/song writers that are pointing folks toward Christ through music. Second - there would be no way this could be achieved without a positive and professional force behind it and NCM is that force. As for my part, of course I am delighted, but most important I am overjoyed to know folks want to hear songs about our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. With all the world problems, folks turn to Christ through music. Such individuals as George Hamilton IV and Tompall Glaser have long been musical authorities, but new faces need a place to demonstrate their God given talents too. Many of us fall into that grouping, but none-the-less we are blessed by being allowed a means to be part of that positive force for Christ. Thanks for the hard work and dedication and thanks to those who put their songs into your hands in order to be heard for even if they touch one heart…angels rejoice. TOM HUNNICUTT (CAPTAIN T) (ARKANSAS, USA) Your service is astounding! Well, Paul what can I say? Me and my merry men ...never thought I would live to see the day! When I heard the high standard of the other artists on NCM I honestly thought we would be passed over by the DJ's in favour of the other great stuff. ..but you guys obviously knew better.. It is very gratifying that out of all that great stuff on NCM that they are playing mine. I have just got back from appearing on BBC Radio Lancahire with DJ Joe Fish. My cup truly runneth over. ..."I was sitting listening to Whispering Bob Harris' show on BBC Radio 2 last night and what do you know? He played my song, 'Hey, Who Said You Can't Go Home?' Wow! What with NCM and Bob, I'm getting the biggest audiences of my long music career. I'm sure none of it would have happened without NCM. Thanks for all your work and God bless!"... "Wow Paul, What can I say? Thank you very much. the album certainly seems to be making a stir - I was shocked to see that it was Album of the Week on Channel 4 Planet Music on Teletext last week and it is doing incredibly well in the Internet Country Show New Artists Poll. Who do we thank for this good fortune? You've guest it: GOD!" TOM TRAVIS, (GLOSSOP, ENGLAND) Thanks for this Paul! Great response! ADRIAN THOMPSON (Label Manager) ICC Records & Elevation, (EASTBOURNE, ENGLAND) As a singer in Breez, please will you add me to your NCM News circulation. I will be in contact regarding a NCMdisc track ...If only there were more Paul Davis' in the Christian world!! VICKY GAMBLETON (BREEZ) (BIGGIN HILL, KENT, ENGLAND) Thanks Paul, we love the work you do and will continue to support NCM. VITAMIN F/CHRIS CLAYTON & IAN BEST (ENGLAND) On behalf of Ken Byford and myself, I want to thank NCM for the professional manner in which you present your NCM Compilation Discs to radio stations. After listening to NCM #26, I am very impressed by the way you structure the placement and sequence of songs on the disc which results in a highly positive presentation to radio stations. This obviously helps all of the artists that are on the disc. You and your staff are real pros at what you do as it is not an easy task to sequence a number of songs of a variety of styles on a compilation disc. I also like the detailed reaction sheets... Your system is far superior to the manner in which opinions from radio stations are reported to artists from record labels in the USA as you have a defined numeric rating system and leave room for comments. Thanks for the EXCELLENT job in this regard. WALTER HAMMOND (singwriter-publisher) (ALABAMA, USA) Thanks for NCMdiscs.
