I had a chance to interview Marty a few years ago on Hymntime and his love for the Lord and commitment to Gospel Music is amazing. So make sure you're listening this Super Bowl Sunday as we present Marty's new single "I've Seen What He Can Do" from his upcoming CD "Hand to the Plow" only on WIN 98.5's Hymntime Country Style.
Here's the top Ten Country Christian songs. Where did your favorite rank?

Not surprising that Josh has two.
Here's a quote from Taste of Country. Do you agree?
"While not every successful country singer releases Christian songs, those who've ignored Christian values haven't gotten very far. Some, like Josh Turner and Randy Travis, are able to weave their faith into the music a little more comfortably than others. Country listeners know when a performance lacks sincerity, and more than a few songs have been written that were swatted away like a mosquito. When done right, nothing sticks to one's soul stronger than a song that inspires.
It wasn't easy, but we whittled down every country song written about God and Christian values to a list of 10 of our favorites. Our criteria included not only song quality and impact; radio success was also a factor. These 10 Christian songs can all be still heard on country radio stations across America today. Chances are one has caused you tear up. The Top 10 Christian Songs are capable of making us better human beings".
Marty's got a new CD Coming out soon, and you can hear his new single "I've Seen What He Can Do" first this Sunday only on WIN98.5's Hymntime Country Style.
