Mark Bishop Talks About The Fields of Love on He's Alive Radio Network

Mark Bishop on The He’s Alive Radio Network

Southern Gospel singer and songwriter Mark Bishop will join host Tim Eutin on the Morning Show on the He’s Alive radio Network on Monday, June 23. Mark’s new album – The Fields of Love – will be the feature on New Music Monday. The program begins at 6 AM EST and can be heard online at www.hesalive.net

“This may be the best album of the year.”, comments Tim Eutin , Program Director and Morning Show Host at the He’s Alive Radio Network. “Each song is well crafted and stands alone. Taken together they form a story that is so captivating and emotional – I was moved to tears – it is by far Mark’s best work to date.”

“It is a musical journey of faith in the heartland”, comments Mark. “It happens in rural American. It is a story of a farmer and his family, his wife and son. It is a story about a family that has faith, loses faith and their journey back to faith.”

The Fields of Love is a unique album in that it tells a story. Each song, from the first to the last, works together to tell a story that leaves the listeners feeling like they have just watched a top rate movie in their mind.

The sound quality of “Fields of Love” is fantastic. “We went full orchestration throughout the whole album”, smiles Mark. It has that, “fullness and majesty just like you would hear in a movie. We didn’t anything on the budget and got the best talent.” Indeed, joining Mark on the album are some of Southern Gospel Music’s finest singers including Debra Talley, Lauren Talley, Jeff Collins, Reggie Sadler, Greg Day and The Kingdom Heirs.

Mark Bishop’s “Fields of Love” album is a unique experience. You can find out more about it, read an in depth interview with Mark Bishop and find free lyrics at www.southern-gospel-music-lyrics.com. Also visit www.thefieldsoflove.com

Crossway Releases New Southern Gospel Song To Radio

Southern Gospel Music group Crossway has released a new song to Southern Gospel radio. The song, 70 x7, is the follow up to the hit Took It All Away from the Beautiful Thing CD.

“ Matt McFarland wrote this song”, states Crossway’s Paul Smith, “And I love this song. It talks about a verse in the Bible where it says how God will forgive us 70x7 times. It’s not really meaning a number. It’s just one of those things that means an infinite number - God will forgive us an infinite number of times. Like God, we should be doing the same. We should forgive people no matter what they do.“Matt will tell you he has trouble forgiving people sometimes so I think that’s why he wrote this song.” Paul smiles and laughs, “He probably wrote it for himself”.
