Gaither Homecoming Tour favorite and Dove Award nominee Gordon Mote performed selections from his latest project, Gordon Mote Sings Hymns and Songs of Inspiration, during his visit to WATC. He joined hosts Danny Jones and Karen Peck Gooch for two episodes of Gospel Music USA and host Sandra Onal for a special edition of Friends & Neighbors.

Blind since birth, Gordon surprised his family at Thanksgiving when he was three years of age by sitting down at the piano and miraculously played “Jesus Loves Me” with both hands. He grew up singing in churches and that set the stage for his music career, which now includes three instrumental albums and seven vocal albums.

In addition to Gordon, The Sneed Family, The Williamsons and the New Dove Brothers all

will be appearing on upcoming episodes of Gospel Music USA.

Dr. Deborah Harrell Isom has been a part of WATC since 2004, first as a guest on Atlanta Live and then becoming one of the rotating hosts of the primetime program. She also has her own program, Prophetic Times, that she produces along with her husband, Vernon Lee Isom, which airs Thursdays at 6:00 a.m. on WATC.

“My desire is to teach the Word of God in such a way that people will understand it and will find it so simple that they will implement it into their everyday lives,” said Dr. Isom. “I desire that they would use the word that I teach through God’s Holy Spirit to advance themselves into the glorious plan and purpose that God has created them to achieve.

“Prophetic Times teaches the world to live the abundant (plentiful) life (Greek = the form of being, growing and changing that Jesus gives). As we go through the scriptures together with our audience, God gives prophetic insight to His people so that they may know Him in a greater way and that they my move into their places of destiny, He uses Prophetic Times as a platform to speak

directly to the hearts of the believer.”

Dr. Isom’s Begin Again Ministry is involved in helping the homeless of Atlanta with food and clothing (pictured, left) and teaching as founder of Aaron’s Beard School of the Prophet.

Hebrews 11:8 By faith Abraham obeyed when he was called to go out to the place which he would receive as an inheritance. And he went out, not knowing where he was going. Abraham was given the greatest inheritance of all times, but only after he obeyed his leader. He was told to go, and he went not knowing to where. It would be risky to follow instructions to “go” and not have a destination. Abraham didn’t need to know the destination because he knew and had confidence in his Leader. Thus, he heard, he obeyed and went. God speaks to us today by the Holy Spirit through His written Word, the Bible. As you read, stop and listen for instructions He may give. In quiet confidence, you, too, will be able to go, without knowing the destination.
