"God is so good to us, I'm very thankful for this team and their amazing work!" shares David Pierce, Chief Creative Officer for K-LOVE & Air 1 Radio. "John Sanders has put his heart into the K-LOVE Fan Awards Weekend and it shows! Scott Moore and his team really did an amazing job! This recognition is both rewarding and humbling."

The K-LOVE Fan Awards co-created by John Sanders, David Pierce and Steve Strout will take place this year live from Nashville's Grand Ole Opry on June 5 with Elisabeth Hasslebeck and Matthew West as co-hosts.

"I am thankful for the vision and belief that K-LOVE has in creating an awards program like this," explains Sanders. "As Chief Creative Officer David Pierce always seems to 'get it' when it comes to the next big thing. This EMMY® only validates that once again his assumptions were correct. Special thanks to him, Steve Strout, Scott Moore and the great teams they lead that make this event possible."

"This project was very much a team effort in accomplishing a very complicated production under a very tight timeline," adds Scott Moore of Go Live Pro. "Lighting Designer Tony Fransen and Technical Director Matt Guice were largely responsible for the success of the event, and helped me in coordination. Many thanks to our friends at K-LOVE Radio and John Sander LLC."
