First-time winners of the night included Aaron Cole (“New Artist of the Year”), Phil Wickham (“Worship Recorded Song of the Year”), and Keith and Kristyn Getty (“Inspirational Album of the Year”). A full list of the winners is available here.

Tribute performances during the special evening included an iconic on-stage collaboration featuring Steven Curtis Chapman, Amy Grant, CeCe Winans, and Michael W. Smith, as well as a Bill and Gloria Gaither tribute. Performers for the celebration included Casting Crowns, Matthew West, Hillsong Worship, Jekalyn Carr, MercyMe, TobyMac, Kelontae Gavin, and many more.
