God blessed me with the ability to touch others with my voice, so I want the opportunity to do just that. I have been singing since the young age of 3. God is my savior and he blessed me with this talent, so I want to show the world by praising him like I've never praised him before.
The reason i feel that i should be on sundays best is, coming up as a little boy,i was teased alot about being skinny,bigg ears,and a snitch.and i just use to cry,but one day my grandfather saw fit to tease me, and the spirit spoke to my grandfather who was the bishop of our church and said,Be careful how you tease him cause hes annoited.and said that threw my singing people would be healed,now i put my trust in friends,family,but not enough in god,and i would always say,Sometimes it takes for us as a people to take a step back,and see how far we go in the future. so im 31yrs old now,i have always been shy to take certains steps for my future,but now is the time,that i show god,my family,my friends and the whole world the gift that god has blessed me to share with the world, tHAT GOD IS GOD,And hes almighty. I pray that god hear my cry,my prayer,and most of all my wish. Now thats the reason i feel that i should be on sundays best…
I believe that I'm the next Sunday Best because singing is my passion. I love praising and singing for the Lord.I believe that songs can touch a person heart and speak into their soul. Believing in God and having a relationship with him, give you all the reason to shout to the moutian top. I love him and I believe in what I sing about.
I should be the next Sunday best because I have a heart for music, and I will love to show the world how much I love the heavenly Father, I try to sing R&B but a lot of people tills me your voice is to churchie, what ever that mean I don't know.. I love to sing for the Lord that is were I'm most at peace with.. The lord help me out through out the years and I want to sing my heart out for hem to show hem my heart and soul and mind belong to father and no one else. when ever I sing for my father its like he is singing through me to reach out to someone that need to hear my voice and that is going through something at the time. I'm not trying to be famous or get rich I just want my voice to be heard and that I'm some body that went through the same hard trail and trouble and to let the people know don't give up no matter what keep pushing forward. I'm not just a voice I'm a vessel from God. I believe to get the word out singing the soul and the heart and mind will follow.. Thanks for taking the time out to read my comment. In everything you do put the Lord in it.
Hello, I'm Aaron and I'm kinda skeptical about these tv talent shows, but I love god and I recognize that he has blessed me with an amazing geft. I'd like to take a shot an audition, most people don't think we do a lot of shouting and gospel singing in the catholic church but times have changed.. So on that note I guess I'll be waiting.
Young talented black male here from Washington DC and I have been blessed with many of talents but one is the gift of song..the enemy comes and trys to distract you from what God has. But when God keeps giving you signs that this is your calling you are to answer. Well here we go my spirit tells me to sing touuch lives save someone. That's my mission well Sundays best here I come and the anointing too.. God bless
I don't sing,not a promoter.But I can honestly say "when your touched by a blessed voice, your soul listens". I work for a prison and a recently retired officer would sing and all would feel an awsome, spirit moving moment.She has moved away,but that voice has stayed with our hearts. This would be a blessing to share with the world!
First of all I want to give all my thanks and glory to my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ!I am from Tupelo Mississippi but have been living in Odessa Texas since 1982.I have wanted to attend before but my timing was always off.I have 6 children and 6 grandchildren.I call it my 12 pack of LOVE.I have been through storms and God blessed me and my family to come through it all.I almost died a few years ago,as well as had to have a funeral for my grandaughter "Nevaeh".I have quit alot of jobs in my life due to fact that it kept me from going to church.The church has always been my comfort zone and who else is better to work for then Jesus,nobody!I just want to tell the world what God has done for me and let them know what he did for me,he will do for anybody!Thank you Jesus!I love to sing gospel and I know I can be an inspiration to someone.I just want to lift up the name Jesus!I love the Lord so much and whatever I can do to bring souls to him I am going to put 100% as you know 99 and a half want do!I will be traveling to Dallas this weekend to do just that and be able to say " I AM HERE"!Much love to all!Just being there will be a blessing to my soul and know that this is my season to tell just how much the Lord has done for me!God Bless and for those who see this,I am asking for prayer for me and my family safe trip there!
Hello,
I'd first like to start by saying, Praise God for saving, filling, delivering,healing, and anoiting me and for being first in my life. Secondly I'd like to say I feel Sunday Best was ordained and orchestrated by God Himself. Gospel Best has given and is giving those who have been called by God to minister to the world through song the opportunity to do just that. I thank God for entrusting me with the gift of song that He has placed on the inside of me and sprinkling it with His precious anoiting. God released me to leave Fl. in May 2011 and relocate to Atlanta to do what it is He told me He called me to do, which is sing to the nations. It has not been easy at all. I lived in a shelter with my grandson and 27 yr. old daughter the first 5 mths we were in Ga., became employed after mths of seeking employment and moved into a hotel close to my job. Where I still reside. Lost my job almost 4 mths ago because I refused to be provoked into a verbal confrontation with a supervisor on my job, and God has made a way for the hotel bill to be paid every wk. Which by the way, pray for me because my bill is overdue and due again Fri. If I don't get the money up today my grandson and I may possibly be sleeping in my car tonight. Which by the way broke down on me right after Thanksgiving. So you see, it's been a fight since I first arrived in Ga.lol If God would've told me before I left Fl. i know I would have never left home. But hey our Daddy got jokes. My son told me I need to leave Ga. cause it just ain't working for me. I broke down and wept loudly, but I told God I knew my son couldn't see the vision bu I was more hurt because my mother who is a spirit filled praying woman who heard the prophecy concerning music ministry and about my move to Ga. doubted, and I know it's because we don't like to see our loved ones go throw, but I told God I still trust Him and I still believe Him no matter what happens. Just give the grace I need to get through whatever I have to face. I auditioned for The Voice last Saturday. I wasn't picked but the experience as far as meeting all of the talented people was great. BUT WHEN I HEARD SUNDAY BEST WAS COMING TO ATLANTA APRIL 14,2012, MMMMMMMYYYYY GGGGGOOOOODDD!!!!….lol that's when I became excited! You mean, I get the chance to openly praise and worship my God? that's what I'm talking about! anyway, I feel I have something to offer the world through gospel jazz and gospel neo-soul. Look forward to seeing you guys next mth as well as the other songstresses and male singers. Love you all and will be praying for you guys and remember to pray for me. Be blessed. your sister in Christ
I praise God for Sundays Best. The Gospel and church community do not have very many outlets to express our love for God and gospel music.I am a worshiper and I would love to be given the opportunity to show my love for God thru song.I have been singing gospel music for years as well as other styles, jazz, rb, etc. There is nothing like gospel music. Others tell me all the time to go for Sundays Best. Now I feel it is time. There is a time and a season. It's Time!!!
I really enjoy the show and want to be apart of sundays best because truly JESUS IS THE REASON WHY I SING.GOD SAID LET EVERYTHING THAT HAVE BREATH GIVE HIM PRAISE.
Praise the Lord!
My sister (Kim)and I are a gospel/inspirational duo! We both love the Lord and we love people. The bible instructs us to love God, then love our fellow man as wel love ourselves. So you know where our love starts…it starts at home! We have been singers our whole lives, however it wasn't until we were asked to sing together (for the first time) at a new years eve service a few years ago the we knew the Lord wanted to use us as a unit. Before singing together, we sang in separate ministries all while manifesting the glory of God through song, and now that glory is still being manifested through she and I. This is our time to manifest glory, AND WE'RE DOING IT! Glory to God!!! Thank you so much for opening the opportunity for us to share! God Bless! (Eric & Kim)
I really want to use this opportunity to use my voice for the one who blessed me with it!I've always been afraid to sing for people up to now. I think I have a good shot at this competion. Im only 15 but my faith is of no age. Through christ I can do all things!
i should be on Sunday best because God has a way of moving in my life.. I believe he has a particular way of working with me and when i sing i try to show the lord i am gretful.. I dont even take credit for the things that come out of my mouth when i sing gospel music because if it hadnt been for Him in the first place I wouldnt be singing and the church wouldnt be feelin it!!! i love the lord!!!!!!!
I believe that I'm the next Sunday best because singing is my passion. I love singing and praising God. I also believe that a person can be save through songs and music. If you believe in God, you can believe in what you sing about.
Hello my name is Lecetia Stubblefield and I have been singing in the church for a while now. I Love God and I love praising him through music. There is something about making a connection with God when you know in your heart that you are singing to him and not just for entertainment. It has been a while since I have sang in the church due to hurt from my father, which was also my pastor. The devil was able to come in and destroy a family ministry and I did not want to sing anymore. I had to sit back and think who am I that my family and I are exempt from the devil trying to destroy what God put together. I think that if people in the church were more real then they would be able to reach those that are not in the church. I am ready to take back everything that the devil thinks he took from me and my family!I know that God has given me a gift and I do not want to lose my gift. I think that if I can make someone feel good and have a smile on their face then I have helped someone get through something with the help of God. I am ready to share my gift, because it has been put away too long!
hello my name is tom williams i have been dreaming of becoming one of sundays best i believe that i am going to get the opportunity to showcase my talent to the world and first and foremost to those who seek the Lord and dont know him as their personal saviour. i have a story to tell and i have a life that i have lived in hardship and hurt that many may benefit from i hope that all of the brothers and sisters in Christ can show up and show out
Hi my name is cellie clak i live n columbus ga i been wacthing this show every time n been wanted to try it out i love the lord he have bout me from a long way and i know he will keep me on this way of life
I should be a part of Sunday's Best because God has anointed me to sing for his glory. It is not only a honor, but it is a priviledge to let God use me.I have learned we can't sit on what God has given us. We were born with gifts, to save his children.
God cries out to us and we cry out to him. I give him the honor and the praise. Lord you are worthy.

Hi, my name is Ashouni Jessie and I love to sing. I grew up in a small church in Dallas,Texas known as Church Of The Living God. I've been singing all my life. Im fourteen years old and every since I was little I have had the voice to reach out and inspire. I am looking for clarity through the gospel music. I want to reach out to my younger generation and help them become more involved with church. Hopefully, we get more youth involved with the ministry. There is alot of talented youth that are just as talented as as I am. I would love to sing for the LORD on the Sunday's Best. I pray that I get a chance to audition.

Hi, My name is Trish. I have been blessed with an annointed voice and a gift to sing. I have been doing what others want for so long, and I have denied myself of things I want to do. I want to share my annointed singing with Sunday Best and the world. Please grant me this opportunity.
Thanks,
I have been blessed with an anointed voice to sing and I would like to finally try to share this gift with america. I feel that I have been doing what others want long enough. It's my time. I would love to have the opportunity try my singing gift out on Sunday Best. Please grant me this chance and by the Grace of God, you will not be disappointed.
many are called but few are chosen, i feel like one the chosen one sent to earth to sing the gospel, especially when the annointing takes over and is not really me thats singing i feel like this voice was eant to be shown to the world, i know that one day at a time god will lead me closer to audition on sunday best
Angel Bland is my birth name. Nobody can tell me that God didn't have plans for me when He put those two names together. One of the reasons I would like to participate in BET's Sunday Best 2012 Season 5, March 24th in Dallas, Texas, is because my faith is leading me in that direction. I call people on the phone and encourage them with a song in their time of need, and at Christmas because I have no money for gifts. Singing doesn't cost me a penny. Its my gift from God to others. They appreciate receiving it as I do giving it. I simply want to share my testimonies through tune and 'tude with no acknowledgment to fear of failure. It takes me to another place. I am praying this whole experience will move in me, over, under, up, down, around me, and beyond; just like my love for the Father moves me. The Word and Music Ministry continues to take me to another level (spiritual growth), and the Father has truly worked a mighty mighty work in me. I am now ready to further my gift (if it be His will) and surpass the standard of my call. This is Satan's last time with this particular tactic of trying to block this particular blessing, for no weapon formed against me shall prosper. There is a reason and a season for my desire in this BET gospel experience. The Father is the reason and this is my season. I recognized my spiritual gift at the age of nine when I sang my first church solo, and I understood its purpose. I will not say I never strayed from the path but even so, the Father never took my gift away. And as you know, God can do whatever He wants to do. He could have taken it when I was in the world being disobedient, but He is merciful and gracious, among other things. I am grateful for the Blessed Assurance that He lives in me, and is the one thing no one can take away from me. Its been tried; He rose three days later. I've seen, done, gained, and lost a lot, but GOD …. He has been the constant. I know that He is not done with me yet "for to whom much is given, much is expected." I've been given much and I will do nothing short of what is expected. His Word and Music Ministry will never die so I'm covered. He is my reason and this is my season, no pressure. That is why I want to be a part of BET's Sunday Best 2012 Season 5, March 24th in Dallas, Texas.
My name is Christian Rodriguez from Newark, New Jersey and im 22 years old. I have been singing i was 4 years old. I was classically trained first when i went to Arts High School in Newark. During my high school years i was performing and also auditioning for American Idol twice but didnt turn out the way i thought it would be. During the third year of high school i met a gospel director called S3 And The Truth. I was on Bobby Jones and also did background for Wyclef. I eat, breath, smell and think music every day and every hour and second that passes. I would love to have the opportunity to audition. Its not about me being famous i just want to sing and make a change to the world with my music. Thanks very much!
Many are called but few are chosen. We all go through things in life where you have to make descisions where your faith is tested and your integrity is tried. But there is one thing I know is that God will never leave nor forsake you. I love the lord Because he first loved me. and I pray that i get a chance to Share that feeling with the world.

Hi my named is RaShon Bigghem and I am so excited about Sunday Best. It's an opportunity for great talents to be exposed. I have song in church all my life including some engagements outside of church. I am going to allow god this year to expose the great gift he has imputed in me. I feel what god have for you if it's your season, you will receive it.
I really enjoy watching Sunday Best.. I have been singing in my Church Choir since I was 5 years Old.. I will be attendng the St. Louis Auditions this year.I love to get my praise on all the time.. I have been on stage before with Mrs. Shirley Caesar. It was a Random Pick I was unaware that she would choose me to come up and sing with her. I am very excited to tryout for Sunday Best this year. Thank You !!
Praise God Saints! 1st off I wana say, "singing is a gift". I truly thank God for having favor in me to give me that gift. I would not only just want to be on Sunday Best but win as well, if its in God's will. It would just be an honor to fellowship with my brothers & sisters in christ. I not only have a passion for me singing but others as well. May God be with each & everyone of us.
I dont know, well I know but I cant describe the feeling that I have when I sing for the spirit of the lord. To know that you have a blood flowing, GOD given talent running through you, there is no way to go other than with… This has been my talent and gift that I would live to and love to share with you and whom ever else needs the spirit moved in them.
Its in my blood………….
Peace and Blessings to All!
It has been a good thing to see real ministering of sacred and dedicated music being televised for all to see and receive from it.
I would like to minister from the depths of my heart and spirit with the God given anointed voice I have been graced with. I have discovered that as I am reached with the music, others are also and I believe in sharing the comfort, joy, sometimes excitement, victory, and lifting from trouble and love of God through music with the words of God's expressed as only a true Gospel psalmist can.
Hope to be there.
Paula
I'm just simply a worshipper and a praiser at heart my heart is gear towards them both god has really taken me to a whole new level in him as he open the door for not only be a musician but a worship leader and minster of music at two places of worship god has given me a heart for people to take them in to a place with god I'm so grateful and thankful for how god uses me and would love to share this gift with the world
Most people run to other things to cope in life but I've learned to run to the rock that is higher than I . With a trying life and a trying marriage God is, and the love that he has placed in me for his people is for the world to feel and to remember him a way of music. For he said that my gifts and talents will make way for me. For God is God and he can't lie, so see you soon!
My name LaRonica McDaniel and I am an administrator for New Day Church of Faith Ministries in Birmingham, Alabama where my Pastor is Sheila Turner. I know that people are suppose to summit their selves for an audition but we at New Day Church School of Fine Arts feel it would be our honor to summit this for her. Mrs. Sheila Turner is well respected and loved by her church, employees, and community. She has a voice that make you want to cry and praise the lord everyday. Mrs Turner has a beautiful spirit. She is annointed and appointed by our Lord God.
Thank you, this would be a chance of a lifetime.
I have a testimony that will help others through the trials and tribulations they are experiencing. I love serving GOD and the gift the he have blessed me with. I know i can minister to people through song as well.
Hello I'm writing on behalf of my 10 year old son who I am trying to get noticed for his drumming skills.Drumming is my sons passion and has been playing since the age of 4. It all started when Drumline came out and he began watching it at a year old and to this day watches it as if it just came out : )HE had the opportunity to work in a band with 2 high school students in ky, They played at restaurants and he also recorded songs with them in a recording studio. It would be such a blessing if someone can give me the advice i need to get him exposed for everyone to see how much he really wants and needs this. If their are drumming auditions he can try out for please inform me.Thank you for your time.

It's just time to walk in my purpose!
Started singin in church as a child, lost my as i became of age, god has put so many trials in my life in the past 4years and when i sit back and think about what I've been through and where I'm at now i can't do anything but give him the glory. I feel that sundays best would b away of me showing the world/man that I'm not afraid to praise him and will praise him through my good times and the bad…yeah i might be 19 but i have a story and with the gift god gave me i will tell my story…
Hello My name Is Kellee Bennett I have been a fan of Sundays Best for a long time now Singing is not just something I do it's who I am it's my passion I wake up singing and I do it all through out my day . I would very much appreciate the chance to be on Sundays best because it would give me the chance to take God to the world. I believe God has blessed me with the voice that I have and I owe him all the praise that comes from it .
I am interested in applying for an audition. I guess many people would call me an old woman. That's ok. But since I was a child, I knew I wouldn't be happy unless I sing. I'm not a great singer, just love to sing.
Hello. I was in a meeting one day and heard the speaker say that she would not want to stand before the Lord and have HIM say you did not fulfill your purpose here on earth. That struck me to tears as I thought about my chance to stand before the Lord. All I know is that God has blessed me with this talent, and I give of it freely whenever I am offered the opportunity. People love to hear me sing and always say things like you are in the wrong field, or do you have a CD; I would be the first to buy one. I always ask God not to take away my talent because I am not using it as He wants me too. I have always wanted to be a singer (Christian/Gospel), but constantly make up excuses why others are better than me. But I have come to realize that I am fearfully and wonderfully made, as the WORD says, and if I could use my God-given talent to encourage others to be a part of this Great Kingdom and to join the Body of Christ, it would be worth having the talent.
God bless!!
