The event will be hosted by Dan Willis who is the Senior Pastor of The Lighthouse Church of All Nations in Alsip, IL which is also known as Chicago’s “Bridging the Gap” Church and is one of the nation’s leading multicultural ministries with nearly seventy nationalities represented in its congregation. Dan Willis is also the host of the Emmy Award nominated late night Christian television show on TCT Network – “I’m Just Sayin”.

Artists united for this inspiring night of worship include: The God Father of Gospel and three time 2013 Dove Award nominee Ben Tankard and Bishop Jerry L. Maynard and The Cathedral of Praise Choir who are also 2013 Dove Award Nominees in two categories. Rising newcomers Ethan Kent noted for his radio hit “My Hope Is In Glory” and Washington DC based female vocalist/pianist Ronnette Harrison will also be performing.

Soulful singer-songwriter Chris August will also be making a special appearance. August cemented his name in the Christian music world and earned the Texas native the coveted titles of “New Artist of the Year,” “Male Vocalist of the Year” and “Pop Contemporary Album of the Year” at the 42nd Annual GMA Dove Awards. August also had a massively popular radio single “Starry Night,” which held the No.1 spot on Billboard’s Christian / AC chart for six consecutive weeks and was the first debut single to reach No.1 on that chart in more than three years.
