He’s baaaaaaaaaack!
One of GospelPundit’s fave guest bloggers, Brian Courtney Wilson, has shared another blog entry exclusively from the heart. If you haven’t seen his earlier entries, click here to catch up.
His debut album, Just Love, is doing very well at Billboard, but he managed to take a moment to talk about one of his inspirations in the gospel game. It’s all yours, Brian…

‘Thank You’ To One Of My Favorites…
One of the things I am thankful for as we continue to promote Just Love across the country is the opportunity to meet and thank some of the artists who have served as inspirations in my continuing quest to be a credible witness for the Kingdom. Canton Jones is one of those artists.
Canton has been able to articulate in a distinct way what it means to struggle with doing right in the eyes of God and doing ‘real life’. In fact, I believe the stories he has been able to chronicle and put into christian perspective are critical to transforming our ‘real lives’ into kingdom living.
If you don’t know what I mean, then take a listen to his classic “Stay Saved” which is in regular rotation on my MP3 player (I highly recommend it for yours as well). Canton, thank you again for sharing with the world what God allowed you to see.

God Bless Bro!!!
I've been blessed by the ministry of Canton Jones. His music is awesome. I agree with Brian about the song "Stay Saved" because Canton really keeps it real. It's one of my favorites.
Thanks Brian, for a great blog about one of my favorite artists. My teenage son introduced me to Canton, but I think I listen to his CD's more than my son. :) I really hope Mr. Jones soon receives the recognition that is due him.
I have always wanted to try Canton Jones's music but I was afraid I would not like it. I will now give it a try because of this testimony.
