“The music and men of Crosspoint
represent something vital to the well being of so many of us – music
with a message. I don’t believe it’s possible for anyone with a heart to
listen to this music and not feel something both spiritually and
emotionally. Great music from fine men who are truly dedicated to
spreading the Gospel. It also helps that they’re some of the finest
acoustic musicians, singers and songwriters around. I’m so honored and
humbled to have been asked to produce the new project, “We’re Gonna
Rise”, their first for the Rural Rhythm Christian label. Full of
wonderful, heartfelt songs with a purpose, this collection of music is
sure to move you.” – Steve Gulley – Singer/Songwriter/Producer

“The band members’ faith played a major role in the creation of We’re Gonna Rise. “In doing this 
new
album, our creative goals were simple…make the very best project
possible that would uplift Christ and bring a blessing to people. As a
Bluegrass Gospel Band, that is first and foremost our mission, to spread
the gospel message. From day one, it was our intent to select what we
felt was the right songs to convey that message, whether from our own
writings or from time honored spirit- filled songs.” – Gary Kidwell
