Rodney is known for his relevant, practical, and sincere style of communication that connects with today’s contemporary audience. He and his wife, Michelle, have three children.

MONDAY: Steve Wilburn
Steve is the pastor to students at Harvest Christian Fellowship in Riverside, CA, where Greg Laurie serves as the senior pastor. There Steve leads the SWAT Team, a.k.a. “Students With A Testimony.” He says that one of his greatest blessings in ministry is to see someone surrender his/her life to Christ. Steve and his wife, Laurie, are blessed with four children: Melissa, Stephanie, Marybeth, and Brentten.

TUESDAY: Rick Gage
Rick is the founder and president of GO TELL Ministries. Between his youth camps, crusades, and international ministry, Rick has seen tens of thousands make commitments to Christ. He is the author of More Than a Game, and he is a frequent voice on national radio and television talk shows. Rick and his wife, Lynne, reside with their two daughters in Atlanta, GA.

WEDNESDAY: Scott Camp
The product of a teenage pregnancy and a broken home, Scott was arrested for drug and alcohol abuse in high school. He committed his life to Christ while in prison, and he later received his B.A. and M.A. from Criswell College. Ordained at the age of 20, Scott became a powerful voice for the love of Christ. He is now the founding pastor of The Fellowship of Joy in Arlington, Texas, a church which is experiencing phenomenal growth under his leadership. He and his wife, Gina, are blessed with four children: Sarah, Dillon, Joshua, and Madison.

THURSDAY: Rick Stanley

During this time, he has appeared on numerous radio and television talk shows across America. Rick and his wife, Robyn, live in Florida; they have two daughters, Brittany and Bethany.

WORSHIP LEADER: Ryan Wingo Band
In the summer of 2004, Ryan was named the overall spotlight winner at the Gospel Music Association's annual conference in Estes Park, Colorado. As a college ministry worship leader at Bellevue Baptist Church in Memphis, TN, Ryan's passion is to lead students to the throne of God.

SPECIAL PERFORMANCE: KJ-52
“I am just a kid who grew up in south Florida who loves hip-hop and wants to share my heart with anyone who will listen.”  Looks like a lot of people are listening!  KJ-52 was voted favorite hip-hop artist in the last two CCM reader’s polls. He’s the winner of three Dove Awards for Rap/Hip Hop Album of the Year (2004, 2005 and 2006).  KJ has become one of the most trusted names in music as a songwriter, producer, minister, and comic poet.  That’s pretty good for someone who’s an unabashed follower of Christ, white, AND a rapper ― a rare combination, to say the least.  His new project, The Yearbook, is a collection of KJ’s best instrumentation, beats, rhymes, and melodies to date.

SPECIAL PERFORMANCE: Jared Hall
Being a son of a music pastor and attending church his whole life, Jared was a typical church kid. He was eight years old when he let Jesus take control of his life. When Jared was ten years old, he began doing magic tricks for fun, but he soon realized the tricks could be used for something much greater than just entertainment. God called Jared to ministry while he was a student in high school in Baytown, Texas. While in school, he began using illusions, comedy, and even mind-blowing stunts to capture the attention of students and share the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

SPECIAL GUEST: Annie Wignall
Annie started the Care Bags Foundation when she was 11 years old, and the organization now helps thousands worldwide entirely with volunteers. As Annie says, “I know we can’t help everyone, but with your help we can make a difference, one Care Bag, one child at a time.”
