...I sincerely hope - Kevin LeVar for his truly powerful song, "A Heart That Forgives". I have to admit, although I love Jesus, I still have my struggles. And many know that during the fall of 2009, I was being tested and tried to the fullest.
I had so many encounters with negativity: attacks by evil people being used by Satan, people close to me let me down or hurt me, thieves, and the list goes on and on. I didn't say much, but you could feel the pain in many of… Continue

Trapeze School: A Lesson on Letting Go!
Letting go and letting God
I recently had the opportunity to do something that I normally would have never considered: Trapeze School at the Santa Monica Pier.
I have a fear of heights, and I am also not quite the gymnast that I was as a kid. What transpired that… Continue

There is Nothing Like a Good Dad!
I just spent a week with my Dad and the family. I really learned a lot about him, and a lot about me.
Firstly, he is very analytical. He has an engineering degree, and even started on his Masters at my Alma Mater CWRU. As a Black man accepted into a top engineering school during those times – you KNOW he… Continue

Home and "Single" for the Holidays
I want to take a moment to invite all of my single ladies to repeat this (with me):
Yes it is Christmas
Yes I am single
Because I am saved, have a real friend to spend Christmas with
Therefore:
I won’t spend one more minute awaiting the phone call for a Christmas Eve date
I won’t spend one more minute awaiting the phone call for dinner with his family
I am not a last minute option, I am a priority
I won’t charge my credit card on an expensive gift for one more chance to impress him
He is no… Continue

- About Me
- “It was on a business flight from Cleveland to Chicago” says Kelly Chapman when asked about the moment she realized she was a songwriter. “I was at a point in my life where I needed to express myself creatively, express my thanks to God. I needed to find my voice and maybe being 30,000 feet closer to heaven helped because the lyrics started flowing and haven’t stopped since.” Find her voice she did! With the release of her sophomore CD “Great is Your Grace,” this multi-talented singer/songwriter/actress/ speaker and author has been using her voice to reach out to the world. Whether speaking to woman about empowerment through Christ or ministering through music, there is no doubt that Kelly Chapman’s voice is anointed!
Born and raised in Cleveland, Ohio into a musical family, it was no surprise that Kelly would become a performer. “We always had music playing in the house, whether it was my mother listening to Amy Grant, my father playing the piano, my sister singing show tunes or my brother producing hip hop, there was always music!” The Chapman family attended church on Sunday mornings, which would set the foundation for Kelly’s spiritual journey. “I actually didn’t truly understand what being saved meant for quite sometime. I understood salvation, but it was many years later when I understood what it meant to have a personal relationship with Christ.” Kelly wanted to help others discover their own relationship with God and on that flight to Chicago, “Real” was born.
Kelly’s first CD“Real” was released to a packed house at the Ohio Theater Playhouse Square in Cleveland. The impressive debut featured the poignant single “Heal Me” which BET selected as the theme song for their Hurricane Katrina relief telethon. But the creative flow didn’t end there, Chapman co-authored (with Kenya Banks) a companion book to the CD titled “Real: The Truth about Being Single” “I feel like I’m supposed to be honest and transparent in ministry, and the book allowed me to discuss some difficult subjects that many woman face while offering bible-based truths to help them overcome.”
Which brings us to the release of “Great is Your Grace” on Lightworld Records. “Grace” is a Word-laced CD in which Kelly Chapman’s soaring voice deftly takes the listener through various styles of music from Jazz to Rock to Gospel. Kelly takes you on a journey. “My faith journey is definitely relatable, but not typical and I think that the diversity in my music is a direct reflection of that journey.” Chapman recently energized and touched listeners with a variety of television appearances including Harvest Show (LeSea Broadcasting), Celebration of Praise with Ron Rosson and friends (Christian Television Network) and Focus Four (Cornerstone Television Network.)
An Avid philanthropist, Kelly created the Wilma A. Chapman Scholarship Fund at the Cleveland Foundation in honor of her mother. With the launch of "Great is Your Grace", Kelly will donate a portion of the proceeds from the sale of “Excuse Me While I get My Praise On,” to the New Orleans Mission indefinitely. As a member of New Song Church where Ron Bradley is the pastor, Kelly enjoys singing, speaking at various youth programs, church conferences, business conferences and concerts. “Gods grace, mercy and faithfulness are key messages that I want to share to draw others to Christ.” Kelly is walking in God’s word with her unique vocal style and spirit. A gift from God who is ready for the masses!
