hello and welcome to the army show up close and personal hosting this and i'm here to take you through this musical dance we call life and to do that you know i bring on phenomenal people to help us make it through today is gas let me tell you i'm put my glasses on because it's so much i don't want to miss anything they are renowned academy award winning gospel recording artist mcdonald's gospel fest first place winners and hopes for several years and a place e p music award winners they travel the world and share the stage with from several john ross they are powerhouse leaders in business music education the community and the spirit of the velvet of many they have written and produced and star in a new musical called the balance of love a musical journey they are  direction and you know pulling out their talents yeah so with these voices and you could sing secular music and blow everybody away and have all the awards so you decided to do gospel and not the secular way  the mean the pastor of you know church and i'm the mom minister of music so i excepted the role when he when he opened the church my thing was i've always followed them so it was this is just who we were my mom always told us that you happening and what is a powerful powerful funny funny funny story in a play and so on but in writing those things so i'm the one my brother does a lot of the executive producer who's i just make sure he'll get the money to put the show on need so let's go there for a minute with his sponsorship because a lot of people that watch this show they have their own businesses so they want to know how do we do that so is it hard to do that and how do you approach people in your neighborhood or where do you go after those votes is very difficult to get people to give you my answer and give you money you have to give you money especially when you don't have a history and a lot of times i go after people who i have a relationship with and they like the concept that i present and because they saw some things that we've done and they like the relationship and the the b s that i create so in that they trust your integrity exactly you know and so and then once they see the show like this one now we've got people come from everywhere now come about and why that came about twenty five years ago so we're on the my brother now we were on a road and he worked in corporate america i worked in corporate america and we got to the point that we were torn at the time as a joke as brothers and we would get home and we would fly in from nebraska from a show or concert and we had to get up that morning and go or flash rate to work and got to a point where we were like listen it's time for us to do music for limit so we said now you know and you know what i w blossomed there and we started getting a lot of people who are you in a same a business and but like i said i do a lot of schools of teachers and i when you get them in are you kind of like a manager and you get a new and you cut their wings and you know i don't manage them what i do is i do what i what's called vocal development dynamics show bill songs all everything there is a doing show business i teach them and so and saying that that's where a lot of now the clientele is coming from which ok so you have individual clients and the mean this guy that we're these guys that like to do things at the box one and it was a joint in my heart after hearing so many people trying to find god and being turned away because of different personalities or but we have to define god in this day and time because we'll new zing people who see him as a religion as opposed to as a force of power of love and as an identity and so we just came together to learn let's just take the time a year to come up with a concept of how we want to approach it and so i got the series going for you at my church and then developing musically so we can bring all john as a music together to identify this thing called love and all and balance yeah you can god as in everything god everything in the heartbeat of life you know but i'm very beginning we start it whether our personality corrupted it as to be determined but we do know that in the midst of it then you have somebody in the middle of that thing ok explain to me what happens is when i when i when i wrote the production i was going to my brother what i want to do i want to take every day relationships because the name of that scene was called hello god is at the center of everything that we do but the bible said there's a time for the time a season for everything so for man and woman to meet don't necessarily have to know god to meet you know in you know in their relationship if they get to know god but god children and you've got these this businesses that you run you've got a church that you run and you get people since you're you know bishop people you've got to deal with and their lives and their issues how do you balance all of that for me is for our christmas show in broadway you know we did a show last year our christmas concert and we were fortunate to have a lot some tyler perry people and we're fortunate to have a guy who had just put a new show out that was called home for the holidays a friends of ours a friend of ours invited them and they came and i saw the show when they were blown away me and a guy that he had just put about seven million dollars in a show in new york and said you guys are interested in and maybe bring the show to broadway next year it was like no which was but heart regardless to who you are whatever religion you are what what what you like what you don't like we know that love conquers all and that's what we try to show people and show the love of god and that love is not just with god but each or somebody wants to produce a show give me three tips they can because they've heard you say they can now go out and try to do that if you want to be successful the first thing you have to do is be disciplined he disciplined ok he be disciplined you've got to have take that one time to be successful in everything else kind of what if they say i don't know what to do first i don't know where to go i don't know what i'd do for the person to find you the first thing you have god gives you what to give zire find out what that thing is that you desire the everything you need to know about all right thank you so much for being actually appreciate you have an all right this is in the army show with the units up close and personal remember it's never too late to live your dreams and when you do when you do i'll be there encouraging you to bring bring back everyone you
