Manager. "We congratulate Charles Jenkins & Fellowship Chicago on this significant achievement. More importantly 'Any Given Sunday'
continues the vital legacy and rich heritage of Chicago choir music."

Sean Hodo, Kevin Vasser, Tanesha Jefferson and the new Inspired People recording artist Donishisa Ballard. "'Any Given Sunday' is a
celebration of the live worship experience! Our goal is to get you singing bringing the diverse, powerful, and impactful moments of Sunday to every single
day of your life," Pastor Jenkins adds. "Tons of prayer, study and hard work went into this project. We are very grateful for so much love and support, God is Awesome Forever!"
