The Morning Thing celebrates Steven Curtis Chapman

Steven Curtis Chapman has made history! When his latest song, “Don’t Lose Heart” hit #1 on the Christian Adult Contemporary Charts, Steven set a record. He now has 50 #1 Songs!
Steven is the only Christian artist to achieve this record. He is one of only 4 artists in ALL genres of music to achieve this accomplishment. He is in a group with Conway Twitty, Madonna, and George Strait.

Steven shared his thoughts about making history.
“I’m completely blown away by the support for this song and for my music, even after so many years,” Chapman says. “To ever have a No. 1 song at radio as an artist/songwriter is a dream come true, and to have 50 is simply unbelievable! This only happens because of an amazing team and a community of friends around me who have believed in the unbelievable. I’m grateful and humbled beyond words.”

Steven’s legacy goes way beyond songs on the radio. Steven is a singer, songwriter, record producer, actor, author, and social activist. Click HERE to see a timeline of Steven’s history.

Part of the Chapman story includes adoption. They experienced the miracle of adoption in welcoming three daughters home from China. After the adoption of their first daughter, Shaohannah Hope, in 2000, the Chapmans desperately wanted to do something about the millions of waiting children still in need of loving families.From this simple calling, Show Hope was formalized as a 501(c)3 nonprofit in February 2003 with a mission to care for orphans by engaging the Church and reducing barriers to adoption.

Steven’s story took a drastic turn on May 21, 2008. Maria Sue Chunxi Chapman died from her injuries and blood loss in a driveway accident that happened eight days after Maria’s 5th birthday.
He shares his story in a recent I Am Second film. Click HERE to hear from Steven.

Maria’s Big House of Hope was named in honor of Maria Sue Chapman. Six years after Maria’s death, her legacy continues to transform the lives of orphans with special needs. The sights and sounds of laughing children that echo throughout the hallways of Maria’s Big House of Hope are very much a glimpse of God’s redemption…of his bringing beauty from ashes.

Steven Curtis Chapman is beginning his next chapter. He has released a new album, Still.
He is the most awarded artist in Christian music history with:
