A church leader made the announcement to the congregation on Sunday saying that MacArthur, "may be in the presence of the Lord soon.”

Steven Malcolm has done it again, taking Christian hip-hop and combining it with an anthemic worship song feel with his tune "Yes."

Malcolm called on a few friends to join him, featuring Christian rapper KB, as well as the CCM band for KING & COUNTRY.

Two months after sharing his diagnosis of stage four cancer, 3 Doors Down frontman Brad Arnold is offering fans a deeply personal and hopeful update — one marked by improving health and enduring faith.

A British Columbia father and son are suing the Anglican Church of Canada, alleging the son was conceived as a result of sexual abuse by a female employee of St. Michael's Indian Residential School in Alert Bay in the late 1960s. 

The lawsuit says the father was 14 years old when he was victimized by a school supervisor in 1968, and he settled a lawsuit with the church in 2008 over the alleged sexual assault at the school on Cormorant Island, northeast of Vancouver Island. 

At the time of shooting the Sunday Hymn Serenade video last Fall, Rosemary Siemens and Eli Bennett felt what ultimately would come together for the song "Just As I Am" would be the most important video they created to date.
