Laura Story's "Blessings" is currently the #1 song on Christian Radio charts, and is the #1 downloaded Christian song on iTunes. Story joined Carolyn Callahan in the TV5 studio to promote an upcoming appearance and give us a taste of her music.
Story sang, "Indescribable," and "Blessings" in our Bangor studio.
Joe Polek is the Assistant Program Director for WHCF, 88.5fm. He explained why "Blessings" is so successful. "It's the story behind it. A brain tumor hospitalized her husband in 2006. The faith she sang about for years was put through the unexpected fires of fear and loneliness; most young newlyweds don't imagine being kept alive at one point by breathing machines or having to find their way through significant post-operative vision and memory loss."
Story's Saturday concert to celebrate WHCF's 30th Anniversary is all sold out, but if you'd like to hear more from Story you can attend Bangor Baptist's Sunday worship at 9:30 am or 11:00 am this Sunday.
