The Whisnants will perform at Baptist Chapel Church Sunday night, along with the Precious Jewels and The King’s Way Quartet. Concert time is 7 p.m. and admission is free. A love offering will be received. The church is located at 2208 Baptist Chapel Road, Autryville.
Over the years, many Southern Gospel groups have come and gone. But there is one group that has stood the test of time. Since 1970, this Morganton based group has been singing and ministering through song across the United States and Canada. Jeff Whisnant, owner and manager says, “I have asked God to allow us to be the very best that we can be so that He can use this ministry to touch people’s lives. He has done just that!”
The current line-up of Jeff and Susan Whisnant, Aaron Hise and the Whisnant’s sons, Austin and Ethan, have a sound that fans, promoters, and churches are raving about. With 10 no. 1 Songs and numerous Top 20’s, the group continues to see God’s handiwork through their ministry. Their song “What You Took From Me” was Singing News Chart Song of the Year for 2003. In 2004, the fans of Southern Gospel Music again awarded the Whisnants Song of the Year with their message of encouragement, “Even in the Valley.” They have been nominated for Trio of the Year 6 times and have received numerous individual nominations, including Favorite Young Artist, Favorite Female Singer and Favorite Alto. For years, the Whisnants have been a mainstay on the National Quartet Convention. They have appeared on the Gospel Music Southern Style Program (INSP Network) on several occasions, and participated in the February 2007 Gaither video taping in Nashville, Tenn.
Craig Page, minister of music at Baptist Chapel says: “We are so excited about this concert. The Whisnants have been coming to our church annually now for 6 years and they are always a favorite among our concert attendees. They have such a powerful, family-based ministry. Make your way over to Baptist Chapel this Sunday night, Aug. 12, as we worship with The Whisnants.”
