For we are laborers together with God: ye are God’s husbandry, ye are God’s building. 1 Corinthians 3:9
Newsflash: Working for Jesus ain’t easy.
There are always these little distractions, like loving your enemies, serving ungrateful or unappreciative people, and the all too familiar job requirement of self-denial – “Not my will, but Your will, Lord.”
And while every co-worker and teammate on “Team Jesus” has a job to do, there are those chosen leaders and generals in our Household of Faith who do the heavy lifting; they’re responsible for building up the body of Christ (Ephesians 4:12) by proclaiming the Gospel in speech or song, at an expense many of us cannot comprehend, let alone pay.
It is for these co-laborers of the Gospel that the Steeple Awards has been created.
On March 19th, 2016, Atlanta, Georgia and all of America will celebrate the inaugural Steeple Awards, Gospel’s newest award show honoring Pastors and Psalmists for their ministerial contributions to the Kingdom of God. Whether the honoree is a Pastor of a megachurch, or small congregation…a signed, mainstream artist, or an independent artist – “We are honoring those who are honoring Christ”, says C. Chandon Carter, the award show’s Founder and Carter Unlimited CEO.
All roads lead to Siloam Church International at 3695 Roosevelt Highway, where “the biggest day in gospel music” will be launched, and men and women of God will come from all over the country to celebrate each other.
