Hi Everybody,

It’s been an exciting week here in Nashville as the Nashville Historical Commission placed a permanent marker on the street in front of Koinonia Bookstore/Coffeehouse and honored our Jesus music beginnings. The band DOGWOOD, BROWN BANNISTER, AMY GRANT AND MICHAEL W. SMITH played their first songs in this coffee house in the early days of Jesus music and were on hand for the unveiling. I’ll post pictures soon on my webpage.

On this Episode #245 of Full Circle, I’ll be looking back to the Jesus music cover tunes from the year 1979. There were so many great songs to choose from, so this is Part Two. If you haven’t heard Part One, please go back and give a listen.

You’ll hear from Dogwood, Amy Grant, who will be a guest on the show sometime soon, Craig Smith, Servant and early veterans Eric Nelson and Michele Pillar.

Just click Playlist 201-Present and you’ll find this latest episode. Enjoy and drop us a line at info@fullcirclejesusmusic.com.

Hi Everybody,

Boy what an amazing year 1979 turned out to be! Bob Dylan’s SLOW TRAIN COMING was released as we moved forward from early Jesus music to what became today’s CCM and on this episode, we’ll track those changes. You’ll hear from early Petra, Oden Fong, David and the Giants and DeGarmo and Key, as well as BJ Thomas and Amy Grant.

There were so many great songs released in 1979 that I already know that there has to be a Part Two, next time. With a little help from my friends who pray for and financially underwrite this ministry, I’ll begin to start working on that now. If you want to help, there’s a DONATE button at the top of this page and all gifts are tax-exempt. Thanks.

Remember, all you need to do is go to the Playlist 201-Present and click Episode #244 to hear the great memories from that important year. Give a listen!!

Hi Everybody,

What a fun title for my new show, TOP OF THE POPS AND TRACKS BETWEEN THE CRACKS. On this episode we’re going to be hearing songs that were in the charts on Christian radio back in the day as well as some of those that didn’t quite make it that far but still have something to say that may have not been heard by the masses. Nothing will be lost on this episode!

You’ll hear songs from Bryan Duncan, Steve Camp and the late Keith Green. Two Kims…Kim Boyce, Kim Hill as well as Twila Paris. Solid Rock Records alumni Daniel Amos, Mark Heard and Larry Norman a classic from Phil Keaggy. There should be something for everyone!

Hi Everybody,

The finishing touches were added to the long awaited Randy Stonehill show, Episode #242 and I don’t think you’ll be disappointed. Randy really had a lot of things to say that will help you recall those early days of Jesus Music! It was a lot of fun interviewing and producing this episode with some help from our friends, who pray for and financially underwrite the show. As you know, Randy is one funny guy as he tells how he and the late Keith Green wrote UNTIL YOUR LOVE BROKE THROUGH.

Get ready to rock as Randy tries his hand at the “rock classic” CROSSROADS and tells how he came up with the song PICTURE POSTCARD PERFECT DAY. So, give a listen and tell your friends to download.

Hi Everybody,

Happy Thanksgiving 2018! I hope you’ve enjoyed the time with friends and family and so for a special blessing, here’s Episode #239. It’s part two of a look back at the shift in Jesus music in 1978…that saw the emergence of more and more Christian radio stations giving this new music a try on their drive times in the morning and afternoon while still playing their syndicated preaching and teaching programs during the rest of the day.

You’ll hear radio friendly songs from Benny Hester, DeGarmo and Key, Farrell and Farrell, Sweet Comfort Band, Andrus Blackwood & Company and many others.

Ok, I admit that from time to time I feel a little alone. I know there are thousands of listeners to the FULL CIRCLE show via internet, radio stations, downloads that are being shared, etc. But I haven’t heard from you. Oh, I am blessed with a few who are writing and giving to support the next episode of FULL CIRCLE, but I haven’t heard from you. Why not write this week and tell me the songs you’d like to hear. My address is info@fullcirclejesusmusic.com.

Tuesday, November 27th is GIVING TUESDAY. Would you prayerfully consider a one time end of year gift for the support of FULL CIRCLE JESUS MUSIC? Tax exempt gifts can be given using the button above on the right. Thanks!

Hi Everybody,

This one has been a long time coming. No, I’m not just talking about production time, but the songs on this episode of FULL CIRCLE are over 40 years old!! Come on back with me and enjoy the Jesus Music of the year 1978…and because there were so many great songs…this is only Part One and Part Two will be on it’s way.

I’m featuring pioneer artists Paul Clark, Barry McGuire, Terry Talbot, Kelly Willard, the Second Chapter of Acts and many more. You’ll hear great memories, comments and experience the timeless music of that era.

Once again, thanks to Phil Durham, Steven Weyhrick,Tom Tatlow, William and Linda Schaaff, Paul French, Denzel Polliock, Bob Henninger and many more for your consistent support of this radio ministry. For the others considering becoming a supporter…go ahead…DO IT!! We appreciate you!

You’ll hear the songs that have encouraged Robert along his journey from groups like Parable, Pat Terry Group, The Call and Paul Clark, Phil Keaggy and Randy Stonehill…a great mix of inspiration that will encourage you as well
