In an effort to capture both the trials and triumphs of 2020, GMA is putting together a new kind of Dove Awards; one that will inspire both music and story. Due to the ongoing pandemic, this year’s show will not be presented to a live audience. Instead, through a variety of pre-recorded performances, producer Paul Wright plans to incorporate a variety of new elements to create more of a cinematic approach than previous shows. In the video below, Wright shares his creative vision for this year’s reimagined event.
As these special moments are captured on camera and artists are integrated into this year’s format, many have expressed their excitement, including seven-time GMA Dove Award winner Natalie Grant, who said, “During this unprecedented time, what the GMA team is pulling together is absolutely incredible. They are creating something new that will inspire you and your family in a new way. This is the Dove Awards like you’ve never experienced them before, and you won’t want to miss it!” Jekalyn CarrGMA Dove Award winner and 2020 nominee, shared her excitement, saying, “One of my favorite things about the Dove Awards is that it’s always a big family reunion! Even though we won’t be able to be together in person this year, the GMA team is working to put together a new kind of show that will showcase the incredible stories and songs that carried us this year. I’m already inspired and I know you will be too.”
Christian Healthcare Ministries is thrilled to partner on this thoughtful reinvention. “The Bible frequently mentions music as a form of worship—and we believe that spiritual health directly impacts a person’s physical health. As Psalm 1 says, ‘Come, let us sing for joy to the LORD; let us cry aloud to the Rock of our salvation.’ Christian Healthcare Ministries’ first priority is to glorify God, whether in word or deed. Lovely music glorifies our Lord, and Gospel Music “The Association and the messages its members send to the world glorify God, uplift and share His kingdom,” said J. Craig Brown, CHM president and CEO. “We are very pleased to be a part of GMA, and we congratulate and thank its members for their contributions to the spiritual health of Christians around the world.”
With the new format and star-studded line-up, this year’s awards ceremony will be a historic event not to be missed. The 51st edition of the GMA Dove Awards will air Friday, October 30 exclusively on TBN.
