BIO
Outstanding talent always speaks for itself. It stands out from crowds of gimmicks, flashy clothes and pretty faces, and rises above odds, obstacles and any lesser contenders. Great talent cannot be learned or created—it is simply given to a special few. And when that talent is dedicated to a higher purpose, there's no telling where it may take the one who possesses it.
Pop vocalist and songwriter David Phelps has been given such a talent. Credited by many as having one of today's most spectacular voices, David has seen countless thousands rise to their feet for his inspiring, powerhouse performances. His audiences have included George W. Bush, massive crowds at Billy Graham Crusades, and millions of "ABC News" viewers, and his voice has brought him multiple Grammy and Dove awards. And with the release of his new solo debut for Word Records, Revelation, Phelps is poised to reach an even greater audience of fans around the globe. Yet amid all the acclaim, David has a special person in his life who reminds him to always honor the One who gave that talent to him.
His wife of eleven years, Lori, helps David balance his dual roles as acclaimed vocalist and down-to-earth husband and father of four. "Most of us don't get the chance to have even one standing ovation or round of applause in our lives, so working on a stage of any kind can give you a really unrealistic view of life if you're not careful," David reveals. "In her own loving way, Lori won't let me live in that place of applause, and I'm very thankful for that."
Recognized from an early age for his unusual talent, David knew from the beginning that he wanted to perform music for the glory of God. Not everyone understood his commitment to faith, however. "I had several teachers who felt that I should be singing opera, or performing somewhere on Broadway," he recalls. "In college particularly, I had a teacher who kept pushing me strongly toward classical music, but when she finally accepted that Christian music was what God was calling me to do, that became the turning point for me."
A miracle is what God had in mind. In Nashville, David met with executives from Word Records and found out about an opportunity with best-selling vocal foursome Gaither Vocal Band. Two weeks later, he officially joined the group that has brought him four Dove Awards, two Grammy Awards, and over 13 gold and 15 platinum-selling projects.
My thirst for the things of this earth, isn't quenched by diamonds or pearls/One man lived the life I want—He's the One they said ruled the world/Though He only wore a crown of thorns, and He never owned a thing…I want to live like a King!
Those words also reveal the purpose behind the tremendous talent God has placed in David's own life. Despite being given such great ability and opportunity, David Phelps is a man who will forever invest that gift in honor of its Giver.

reply to Estelle
If YOU don't feel the Holy Spirit in David's songs don't blame him. YOU need to find Jesus. David has Jesus in ALL of the songs he sings. David is by far NEVER selling his grace. God gave him this talent and works through him in every song he sings. He also leads a Christian life and portrays that at every concert. He encourages others to find God in their lives. If you don't feel anthing from his concerts then I will pray for YOU!!!!!!!!!

it is so fantastic to have
it is so fantastic to have such a gift singing for the glory of God. As any born again would tell you music is the second best(the first being scripture) thing to express joy for Christ as being the savior and redeemer from sin. thanks to people on youtube I cant go a day without watching a video from the gaithers. david is awsome, i hope i can see him in concert again soon.
Oviedo Concert - 11/6/09
Well, David, I can't recall how many times I have seen you "in person" but each time you are better than the time before. Last night I was privileged to hear you again (and to have my picture taken with you).
One of my friends from my church (Faith Assembly of God in Orlando) came with his wife. He had never heard you, only the things I bragged about you. He was truly impressed and truly blessed. Said you had "pipes." And you do.
I appreciate your fabulous talent - for singing, writing, arranging and playing, but, most of all your anointing when presenting the message of the songs.
One of my daughters claims I am stalking you, but truly, I am in awe of your talent and your awesome voice. You can sure make a person's hair stand up on their head! I belive I have now collected all of your CDs/DVDs (she actually bought me two for Christmans last year).
I love you and your spirit. I'm hoping to see you in Lakeland in February and in Hawaii in August. Please continue to be the great husband and father you are.
Keep giving God the praise!
Love and blessings,

Impact on me as a Christain
David,
I have recently been through some very difficult times. I lost my grandmother, job difficulities and other life altering events. I have been truly blessed throughout these difficulties by your music and wonderful voice. I read your bio on the internet and found that you had the opprotunity to go in a different direction but choose to pursue a career in Christian and Gospel music. I beleive you have made much more of an impact on our county by your example and talent for Gospel music. I have been listenting to a Gaither CD for over a year, but skipped certian songs to listen to my favorites. About a month I had the opporuntiy to listen to "Let Freedom" when skipping around to certain songs. This song as been a true blessing to me. I purchased the DVD and it was even more of a blessing. Thank you David, for choosing Christain and Gospel music. My God continue to bless you as you spread teh word of Jesus Christ.

HONOR
Milan...
Jesus, in reiterating the commandments GOD had given, stated "Do not steal" (Luke 18:20), and GOD, through the Apostle Paul, instructed those who steal, to steal no more but, rather....GIVE as a FRUIT OF ONE'S OWN LABOR(Ephesians 4:28) to BLESS OTHERS. Your note dated 9/12, "I usually begin viewing end" was an exact word for word copy of what I had entered on 9/3 and yet you did not use quotes to indicate that the entry was not yours...clearly a case of plagiarism. Satan sought to steal the glory of GOD in Heaven and currently navigates through people in this world to accomplish his purposes of killing, stealing, and destroying all that would bring GOD glory and bless others. If you have, at some time in your life, understood the immensity of the cost Jesus paid in our behalf to pay the penalty for our sins, repented of your ways and embraced the LORD JESUS CHRIST as YOUR LORD AND SAVIOUR, then stealing the work of another should NEVER be something you would ever be involved in. It is as if you are treading on the blood of our Saviour like it is nothing.
Consider your ways, in light of the cost and dishonor you bring upon our Saviour, and go forward, desiring to be as our Saviour in this world...light, love, salt, truth, life, motivated to honorably bring Him glory and be a blessing to others, and perhaps others will come to Him as a result of your new honorable way of living and navigating through life.
Thank you!
***YOU ARE TRULY A BLESSING***
***ZEPHANIAH 3:17***Our awesome GOD is singing over YOU, David, with GREAT JOY! You are a beloved gifted one, honorable, and worthy of praise. and we love you, because you love Him and honor and glorify Him with all that you are. Thank you!
David, may our awesome GOD and Father, our victorious LORD Jesus Christ, and the always in tune Holy Spirit continue to minister to you and through you to your family, and to the Body of Christ throughout the world. Thank you for using your giftedness, wonderfully and wisely! You are truly a blessing!!

Sharing
The God given gift of a beautiful voice is shared so well by David....Also his family shares in that gift to the rest of us....I'm also thinking that there is alot of "character" in him and his family....something we are so lacking in the secular world today. Thank you David and family for sharing your voice and you character....You cause all of us to focus on the Lord and aspire to be the best we can be...
*** WHAT A BLESSING YOU ARE ***
David..
I'm so glad to have found your website!
Can you imagine living in Colorado without a car? I use the 6 AM bus ride on the way to work, and worshipping, I listen to KLOVE and view the beautiful 2 lakes, pond, myriad of geese and ducks as we head into the foothills. Amazingly beautiful scenery...and wonderfully peaceful. Once I arrive at my desk (always an hour early allowing for humanness in the bus transit), I then continue my day, worshipping for the next 45 minutes, as I listen to you singing on the many posted UTube videos, leading to incredibly joyous celebration, with great gratitude to our awesome Father for giving you such a phenomenal voice and opportunity, and that you live to honor and glorify Him! What a blessing you are!
I usually begin viewing "End of the Beginning".....Powerfully awesome proclamation in your presentation of the truth which distinguishes our Savior and the hope we have now, in living our lives each day, AND beyond the grave, because HE CONQUERED SIN AND DEATH!
After seeing and hearing "No More Night" I submitted the following:
An incredible song saturated with incredible truths, sung by a tremendously gifted man of emotional depth, vocal strength, incredible vocal range, & extraordinary breath control. This video is, I think, the best representative of David & his giftedness (I was wrong...there are others!!)...all to the glory & honor of our GREAT GOD & the great blessing of each of us...the Bride of Christ. Thank you, David, for giving all that you are & have been given, back to the LORD in celebration of who He is & all that He is to you & to us.

Your Gift
Dear David,
Your voice was given by God and He did a good thing! Your voice reaches into the hearts of all who believe in God and music quite often has brought people to the Lord. I wish you and your family all that God will allow and I am thankful God gave you the voice to use to do His work. I know that God looks down when you sing and is glad He gave you the tool by which His word gets out through music. I know He smiles when you sing.

Revelation is just that ... amazing. The vocal ability of this man is nothing short of awesome and the lyrics in the songs that he wrote and the ones that he selected touch you in a place somewhere around the bottom of your heart and soul. games for girls
