This week on 20 The Countdown Magazine, the countdown keeps moving with new music climbing the chart, including a strong debut from Cochren & Co. We also welcome the WBCL Radio Network to the 20 family as our Station of the Week and celebrate their 50 years of ministry on the air.

In the news, we take you to the Ark Encounter for the kickoff of the world's largest Christian music festival, hear about Joel Smallbone's latest movie role alongside his wife Moriah, and break down the newly announced Dove Award nominations, including one of the toughest categories of the year: Pop/Contemporary Song of the Year.

We'll also hear from this week's Future Fan Favorite winner, Tate Butts, and introduce two brand-new Fresh Finds from Katy Nichole and Red Rocks Worship & Chris Brown.

Plus, we'll count down the 20 biggest songs in Christian music, according to this week's chart, on another exciting edition of 20 The Countdown Magazine! 20 The Countdown Magazine is listener-supported. Visit
