Singer-songwriter Christy Sutherland took a leap of faith five years ago, and faith can move mountains.
With little financial backing and no national distribution, she launched her Christian-music career with a pair of independently created mini-albums. Although she was a complete unknown in the gospel world, Christy achieved swift and surprising success. In 2009, the Christian Music Hall of Fame presented its Visionary Award for Southern Gospel Female Vocalist of the Year to her in Texas. In 2010, she won the prestigious Diamond Award for Christian Country Female Vocalist of the Year in Missouri. The honors are especially meaningful to Christy because they are both fan voted.
During the past five years, she has appeared on The 700 Club and Hour of Power national television shows, been the subject of two feature articles in The Singing News and sung at Robert Schuller’s Crystal Cathedral Christmas and Easter services in California, at the late Rev. Jerry Falwell’s famed Thomas Road Baptist Church in Virginia and at Liberty University’s 9,000-student convocation.
