The Miracle is a musical production about the life of Jesus Christ. For more information, tickets and show times, visit www.miracletheater.com. MIRACLE THEATER'S NATIONAL CAMPAIGN TO UPHOLD CHRISTIANITY The Frosts are proud to support the efforts of The Miracle Theater, who launched a national campaign and petition to support Christianity after our faith was mocked on a televised awards show. The following is a press release from the theater that explains more... "Miracle Theater’s National Petition Set to Inspire Christians" PIGEON FORGE, Tenn., Sept. 21, 2007 - A Christian theater has taken out a full-page ad in Friday’s USA Today to promote its “Million Voices for Christ” Petition that has already given thousands of people a positive way to stand up for the Christian faith. The Miracle Theater in Pigeon Forge, Tenn. purchased its second ad in the national newspaper this week to give people a way to be heard. Russ Hollingsworth, The Miracle Theater General Manager, says, “The message of this petition is simple respect. Our primary objective is to give any person who wants to speak out in support of Christ, an outlet to do so.” The ad’s headline is “Enough is Enough! Stand Up for Christ.” It asks the public to join the “Million Voices for Christ” Petition at www.MiracleTheater.com. The petition states, “The name of Jesus Christ should not be mocked, nor should those who love Him be slandered for their beliefs. It is time for people of faith around the country to stand firm against religious slander, bias, and bigotry of all types including Christianity.” The ad states the theater’s goal is to get one million signatures or more so their voices will be heard. Hollingsworth says, “There is strength in numbers. One million people speaking up just can’t be ignored.” The Miracle Theater launched an advocacy campaign by taking out a full-page ad in Monday’s USA Today, stating “Enough is Enough,” after Kathy Griffin’s offensive Emmy Award acceptance speech that slandered Jesus Christ and was bleeped out during the national awards show. After an outpouring of public support for defending Christ, The Miracle Theater’s cast and management expanded the campaign to give the public a voice by setting up the online petition. “We believe that every American has the right to worship freely and to speak freely,” Hollingsworth continues. “We believe, however, that as Christians it’s time for us to take a stand for our faith and ask for respectful treatment from the media and the entertainment industry.” The Miracle Theater’s mission is to present faith-based family entertainment through live theatrical productions revealing the person of Jesus Christ as The Living Word of God.

The station always puts together a wonderful concert series every year and we were excited to be a part of the December line-up. As we look back over the year, we have been to so many great places and met some wonderful new people. Thanks to all of you for supporting our ministry. We realize more and more everyday how good God is. We live everyday under His grace. How thankful we are to get to sing his praises - and how grateful we are to all of you for your continued support. We have had a great year and we’re looking forward to the new one! We sincerely wish all of you a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

JUNE 2006
FEBRUARY 2006 JANUARY 2006 - "Author and Finisher" climbs to #70 Hello Frost Friends,HAPPY NEW YEAR! As we look back over the past year, even more we realize how blessed we are. God has been so good to us. We visited so many new places and experienced some high points in our ministry. We are looking forward to a wonderful 2006! Candie and I both turn 30-years-old this year, so it's sure to be a year to remember, ha! We brought the new year in with the wonderful folks at Anointed Community Church in South Carolina. At midnight, we were all on our knees praying as the year came in. The next morning, we sang at Victory Faith Center in Chesnee, SC. It was a wonderful way to celebrate the new year and all of God's blessings. Thanks to all of you in that area of South Carolina who support our ministry. We love you all. BRENDA, WE WISH YOU WELL! With the new year comes a change in our ministry. As many of you know, Brenda Cornett, who has sang with us for the past four years, was recently married to David Brazwell. In December, the two of them decided to move away from East Tennessee to Maryland, where many of Brenda's relatives live. Brenda will work and lead the choir at Solid Rock Church in Newark, Delaware, which is where her brother, Rev. Steve Cornett, is pastor. We have sang there several times and it is a wonderful church with a great outreach ministry. We wish Brenda and David the very best in this new path that God is leading them. The Frosts were able to accomplish a lot with Brenda's help over the past four years and we'll miss traveling with her. We do plan to keep in touch and to visit, and Brenda still may be able to pop in and sing with us from time to time! WELCOME, CRYSTAL! So now the question is — who is singing in place of Brenda? It seems God has intervened once again. Crystal Johnson, who has been a great friend of The Frosts for several years, has stepped in. She is 24-years-old and has sang gospel music all of her life. Crystal has already joined us on the road for several dates, and her powerful vocals and talents for lead and harmony have allowed us to carry on without missing a beat! We plan on sharing more about Crystal with you in the upcoming weeks. Watch for changes and updates to our website, www.frostfamilyband.com, coming soon! "AUTHOR AND FINISHER" CLIMBING THE CHARTS Our single, "Author and Finisher," continues to make an impact across the country. The song entered the Singing News Top 80 charts at #81 only after a few weeks in release, and climbed to #74 for January 2006! The song climbs to #70 for March 2006. Response to the song has been tremendous, according to both Shane Ferrell and Dave Wilcox, our radio promoters. During recent calls to radio stations, we learned that the song is in heavy rotation and receiving numerous call-in requests. WBFC in Stanton, KY, reports that they have had people stop on the side of the road just to call in about the song. The station has already invited us to be a part of their 2006 listener appreciation concert in June. Currently, the song is on the Top 20 list of several stations across the country. THANK YOU, listeners and radio personnel, for believing in the message of this song. We've had phone calls from West Virginia, South Carolina, Georgia and even California telling us how the song has touched and blessed you. Keep calling in your requests and let's spread the message: "let this world do what it may, God will have the final say, for He is the Author and Finisher of my faith!"

Love, The Frosts Michael, Candie and Crystal NOVEMBER 2005 - "Author and Finisher" enters charts at #74 Hello friends,We have some great news to share with you on this chilly winter day! According to our radio promoter and record label, our radio single, "Author and Finisher," will break into the national Top 80 at #74 for January 2006 (Singing News Magazine). This is exciting news, however, it's more exciting to know that people are grasping on to the song's message... "they may take the commandments off the wall, tell me not to display my faith at all, but they'll never take away the joy I feel inside, they may tell me not to pray out loud, and hide God's name from the crowd — but they can't erase the blood that has been applied... let this world do what it may, God will have the final say, for He is the Author and Finisher of my faith..." Special thanks to radio and listeners for your continued support of this song. We are proud to know the Author and Finisher of our faith. New CD, "Testimony," gets Four-Star Review... The Frosts new CD, Testimony (MorningStar Singnature Records), gets a four-star rating over at www.sogospelnews.com. Writer James Hales says, " I predict Michael Frost will become the next Gerald Crabb, Rodney Griffin or Kyla Rowland. Just watch and see.... I really believe the Frosts will be a major force within the industry someday. Each recording brings them closer to that level."

DECEMBER 6, 2004 Dear Frost Friends, The past few weeks have been a memorable time for The Frosts. Our November travels took us many places, such as the Gospel Tabernacle in Forest Hills, Maryland. Pastor Alvin Williams was very gracious, and what a meeting we had ! Then it was on to Newark, Delaware, where Pastor Steve and Cheryl Cornett and the congregation of Solid Rock Church gave us a wonderful welcome. Back in Tennessee, we were part of a benefit singing for an infant child faced with several major surgeries... AND it was reported that more than $4,000 was raised that night for the family. THAT'S GOD! Then it was on to Independence, VA, where Pastor Bill Guy and his wife Dianne of Grubb's Chapel welcomed us into their home for one of the best Thanksgiving meals we ever had! That night, we had a spirit-filled meeting at Long Branch in Lansing, NC. We are so excited about what is happening
in the ministry - and also Great time at The Barn!

Praise Report - The month of April has been a blessed time in our ministry. God brought Candie out of a 12-day hospital stay due to complications from surgery. She was back singing for the first time in a month on Easter Sunday. What a service we had that morning at Bethel Baptist Church in Rogersville, TN. Candie is doing well now. Some dear friends put together a benefit singing, which was held at Faith Assembly April 15, to help Candie through this difficult time. Special thanks to Divine Purpose, Shane Ferrell, The Johnson Family, the Sounds of Salvation, members of Faith Assembly, and all who took part during that evening. The Spirit of the Lord was awesome that night. Another Praise Report! - Speaking of benefits, we just returned from singing at Volunteer High School in Church Hill, TN for a young man battling cancer - and here's a praise report - the churches and community really pulled together and brought nearly $1,700 for him and his family at the singing. That's God! "Frosts Homecoming Sing" in the works - Be much in prayer for us as we plan out first-ever Homecoming Concert in September 2004, something we're hoping will become an annual event. We're expecting to make a BIG announcement soon regarding the talent line-up. Stay tuned! Single may chart - By the way, THANK YOU all for supporting our current radio single, "Three Words, Three Nails, Three Days." The song is only a few points away from breaking into the Singing News Top 80! Wow! The response has been tremendous, and all the e-mails saying how the song has been a blessing have been very uplifting and encouraging to us. Looking forward - With a new project in the works, a Homecoming concert in the planning stages, a single getting ready to chart, and several upcoming concerts - it's certainly an exciting time and we truly feel blessed! We want to say PRAISES TO GOD for these things that we have to look forward to. Pray for us as we continue with our ministry that we may touch hearts and lives and help win souls. We hope to see you all soon. And remember, "It's all because of Three Words, Three Nails, and Three Days." The Frosts - Michael, Candie & Brenda
March 2004 The month of March took us to many churches around East Tennessee and South Carolina area. To start the month off, the folks at Faith Assembly and at Bulls Gap United Methodist gave us warm welcomes as always. Our travels then took us to new places in South Carolina - where we sang at a wrestling match! That's right, I said a wrestling match! Brother Bryan Alverson, pastor of Solid Rock Church, and several members of the church, have been involved in this Saturday night family event for a while, held at the American Coliseum in Spartanburg - and they proudly welcome gospel music! Sunday morning, we had a spirit-filled service at the church. That night, we sang at Bethesda Baptist, where pastor Larry Holland and the whole congregation made us feel so welcome! While March has been a wonderful time in our ministry, it has also been a trying time. As many of you know, Candie was hospitalized due to complications from a previous surgery. After 12 days in the hospital, she is now back home and on the way to recovery. She sends special thanks to all of you who have called and sent cards - and especially to all who have lifted her up in prayer. The Lord has been with her all the way. Candie says she is looking forward to getting back out there and singing very soon. In the meantime, our good friend Shane Ferrell (of Lighthouse Promotions), stepped in and sang on three dates with The Frosts. Special thanks to Shane for lending his talents. He did an outstanding job! The singings were spirit-filled and The Lord moved in a mighty way. There's a lot to look forward to... The Frosts plan to begin a brand new project on May 15 with the Eddie Crook Company - more details on the way!! A special taping for GMT (Gospel Music Television) is also coming up very soon. Keep us in your prayers! Check out new pictures in our photo gallery, and watch for updates to our singing schedule (On The Road). Love In Christ, The Frosts
February 2004 As we get into 2004, we are seeing God bless in our ministry like never before. One of the best spiritual experiences so far this year in our ministry was seeing a young boy step forth and accept Christ during a singing service at Bean Station Baptist Church on February 22.
