The Dove Awards happen almost every year to celebrate excellence and popularity. Ain’t nothing wrong with that. I’ve covered many of these through the years. It was cool covering the Doves backstage, it was entertaining to watch it from the audience and it was a blast roasting it at San Antonio Taco Restaurant in downtown Nashville, throwing guesses in a voting\/betting pool as to who would win the awards. I can’t remember what the person who got the most guesses right won.<\/p>\n

Here’s some quotes from yesterday night’s festivities. I especially like Kari Jobe’s quote. Pat Boone’s is just goofy!
\n\ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

“We praise until the breakthrough comes, and I love to get to watch that happen.”
\n\u2014Kari Jobe<\/p>\n

“We believe the local church is going to be the salvation to the rest of the world.\u00a0 Keep the church strong.\u00a0 Through the sacrifices of many…on behalf of 1000s of volunteers, over the past 30 years- I’ve been honored to be a part of this. -Creative Pastor JD
\n\u2014accepting on behalf of Hillsong<\/p>\n

“We always say faith, family, and ducks. In that order.”
\n\u2014Alan Robertson<\/p>\n

“I was writing this music for the people that sit in the back pew of the church. People that do come, but it’s not quite in their hearts.”
\n\u2014Jonathan McReynolds<\/p>\n

“We grew up singing at those old time tent revivals, and we’ve been praying this year that God would just revive this world.”
\n\u2014Karen Peck and New River on “Revival”<\/p>\n

“It’s called Thicker Than Water…we are kind of like the black Brady Bunch.”<\/p>\n

\u2014The Tankards- Rock Rockman<\/p>\n

“People are hungry. They want some light from heaven. The song inspired the film. These guys came along and made it into something special.”
\n\u2014Michael Tait of the Newsboys on “God’s Not Dead”<\/p>\n

“When you hear a good traditional gospel song it makes you wanna go buy a three piece suit”
\n\u2014Pat Boone<\/p>\n

“I’m amazed by his love, I’m honored by the fact He would choose me and use me to spread his love.”
\n\u2014Erica Campbell<\/p>\n

“I have been encouraged tonight in a polarized world to see a bunch of young folks with a whole lot of energy coming together to praise the Lord.”
\n\u2014Bill Gaither<\/p>\n

“Honestly, I’m just sitting in God’s word and the songs just keep coming.”
\n\u2014Ellie Holcomb<\/p>\n

“Some of our jokes we made up on the fly. I love Lecrae we have been friends for a while and he is just one of my favorite people.”
\n\u2014Bart Millard of MercyMe referring to co-host Lecrae<\/p>\n
