I dedicate this post to congratulating Charlie for being awarded the 2007 “Personality of the Year Award” by the Academy of Country Music!
Many people believe that its cool to know someone “famous!” A lot of people look at Charlie as being famous, and we kid with him often times about that, but Charlie is quick to downplay the classification…he simply wants to be known as a regular person!
I am proud to say that Charlie is a great friend of mine…and not because he is famous. I am thankful to call Charlie my friend because he is a great man. I can tell you that he has won his award for 2 reasons: 1. Because he is talented (Duh!)…one of the greatest talents out there. 2. God has blessed him, greatly!
I am thankful to say that I know Charlie because of who he is, so much more than what he has done in the radio business. Charlie is a radical follower of Jesus Christ, and he doesn’t hide it. Charlie cares for the broken, the hurting, and the afflicted. That’s who Jesus told us to care for.
He has a huge vision for letting God use him in great ways. Charlie has been a firm anchor during some tough storms in his life, as well as for others, while they were facing some rough times. Many people only get to hear the man on the microphone, the humor, the opinions, etc.
I am thankful to know the man behind the microphone, to serve God with him, to dream BIG with him for our community, and to see God do great things through him.
Charlie I love you and your family! I thank God for you and your friendship. There is no one more deserving of your award than you! Congratulations!!!
