Join Us for the Inaugural Gospel Industry Honors!
2025-08-15 11:00 - 13:00
In every note sung and every lyric penned, there is a story of sacrifice, faith, and quiet determination that rarely makes the headlines. Gospel music, with its deep roots and wide reach, has always depended on more than just the voices on stage — it thrives because of countless men and women who labor behind the scenes, fueled by a calling far greater than fame.
This year, the Gospel Industry Coalition (GIC) is stepping into a new season of gratitude with an event that has been long overdue: the Inaugural Gospel Industry Honors — a moment to pause, reflect, and celebrate the “Unsung Sheroes & Heroes” whose unseen hands and unwavering hearts have kept the message alive.
Mark your calendar:
Friday, August 15, 2025
11:00 AM – 1:00 PM CDT
Trevecca Nazarene University | 333 Murfreesboro Pike, Nashville, TN 37210
For decades, I have witnessed firsthand how radio promoters burn the midnight oil, how publicists carry burdens few see, how background vocalists bring songs to life without standing in the spotlight. They do it not for glory, but because they know the power of gospel music to heal, uplift, and transform lives.
The Gospel Industry Honors is our way of giving flowers while they can still be smelled — of saying thank you to those who have given so much without asking for anything in return. It is our collective exhale; a room filled with praise, laughter, tears, and testimonies that remind us why we do what we do.
Guests will gather for an elegant luncheon, filled with moments of heartfelt recognition, stirring tributes, and stories that will inspire a new generation to serve this industry with the same integrity and passion.
Why you should be in the room:
This is not just an event — it’s a movement to reclaim the spirit of community and honor within gospel music. It’s a gathering where legends meet laborers, artists embrace administrators, and everyone is seen as vital to the mission.
Tickets: $50 for GIC Members | $100 for Non-Members
Seats are limited because we want this to be intimate — a family reunion of sorts, where hugs are genuine and gratitude flows freely.
Reserve your seat today at GIC Honors Tickets
If you have ever hummed a song that lifted your spirit, you owe a debt to someone whose name you may never know — until now. Join us as we stand together, as one body, to honor those who have quietly kept the fire burning.
Because in this industry, we know: to serve is to lead, and to lead is to love.
We can’t wait to celebrate with you.
