REstoRAtioN PrAisE is an adult contemporary praise and worship band. We are the house band at Granite City Foursquare Church (check out the link below!) With Southern Gospel roots, and a sweet country sound, our music portrays such variety that we are enjoyed by people of every age, and fans of every genre of Christian music!

We write and record our own, original songs with the purpose of touching the heart, stirring the soul, reaching the lost, and leading people into an atmosphere of worship for a time of devotion to our Heavenly Father.

This is why we named our band REstoRAtioN PrAisE......

Ten lepers one day stood at a distance from Jesus. They knew what He was capable of, and they began to cry out to Him, begging for mercy. They were asking Him for a miracle. He gave them a command; "Go, show yourselves to the priests." (The priests were the ones who could lawfully declare a man clean, or unclean.) While they were on the way, they each began to notice something happening to their bodies - skin became smooth where there once were blisters and sores. Scabs dissappeared. sores vanished. They were healed! Confident that they would recieve a clean bill of health from the priests, nine went on their way.......but one turned back. In unspeakable gratitude, one man ran back to Jesus, fell at His feet, and worshipped Him. All were cleansed; healed of their disease. But it was the one who returned to worship who was made completely whole. Truly, prayer changes things - but praise changes people.

"It's the atmosphere of worship; the feeling of His presence; the calling of the sinner to Jesus. That's why we do what we do." The heart-touching songs and spirited praise and worship music we write and choose for our concerts are because God deserves nothing less than complete passion in our praise.

REstoRAtioN PrAisE is a Contemporary / Praise and Worship band with a sweet Southern sound. We were signed with Big Time Music Group in 1997 as The Linharts, when we recorded our very first album, "Eyes Of Mercy" - a Southern Gospel project we recorded in Nashville TN. We did concerts locally, as well as telethons and charitable events; while serving as the praise and worship band at our home church in Granite City, IL. In 2005, after much trial and error but inspiration in spite of it, we recorded our second album, "Angel," at Master Mix Studio in Florida. Our CD release party was a huge success!

We've named our band REstoRAtioN PrAisE. We have awesome new music in the making right now for our next CD.

God did not call us to be famous; just faithful. Seeing the many lives touched and people born again at each concert make what we do worth any sacrifice. We are excited about the calling God has given us, and we give Him the glory for what HE has done!
