Paid
In Full began their professional ministry while still in high
school, singing in area revivals and camp meetings.
Soon they were singing three nights a week all over the South,
and were appearing in concert with some of Gospel music's finest
artists, including The Gaither Vocal Band, The Happy Goodmans,
The Martins, The Cathedrals, and the legendary Jake Hess. Jake
first heard them in 1996, and immediately took Paid In Full under
his musical wing, bringing them to his home church in Georgia for
a concert, and introducing them to industry leaders and many of
today's top Gospel musicians. Soon they were appearing in Gaither
Homecoming Concerts all over the country as well as in such prestigious
showcases as "Howard and Vestal Goodman and Friends" and "The
Grand Ole Gospel Reunion." They were performing in venues
which are usually reserved for Gospel artists with much more experience
and a longer list of credentials than such a young group can claim.
As musical ambassadors since 1991, Paid In Full has been privileged
to sing in churches with diverse denominational identities and
has been widely accepted by each congregation. Celebrating what
all Christians have in common, Paid In Full has worked to unify
the body of Christ. As Southern Baptists, Paid In Full has been
equally accepted by their own denomination. They have appeared
at numerous LifeWay events and conventions as well as evangelism
and pastors' conferences across the country. They have also sung
in some of the nation's largest Baptist churches, including Bellevue
Baptist Church in Cordova, Tennessee, and First Baptist Church
in Jackson, Mississippi.
Utilizing the talents of renowned Nashville producers Woody
Wright and Michael Sykes, Paid In Full has released six major
recordings, including four original Gospel projects, a Christmas
collection, and an acoustic recording of hymns and favorites.
Some of the industry's finest song writers have contributed their
best original tunes to the group, helping Paid In Full produce
over 10 Top 80 hit songs, as well as rave reviews from Gospel
Music peers, press, and fans from all over the United States.
Now, more than ever, Paid In Full is focused on presenting the
Gospel of Christ through music. On television, in large metropolitan
churches, or in small country churches, the mission is the same:
share what Jesus Christ has done in their lives, and what he
can do in the lives of every human being who will allow it. This
is the message Paid In Full wants to deliver in their concerts
and recorded music.
