Furthermore, the album earned four Dove Award nominations earlier this month, including Gospel Performance of the Year, Contemporary/Gospel Urban Album of the Year, Traditional Gospel Song of the Year, and Contemporary Gospel/Urban Song of the Year.

In addition to the four award nominations, Campbell will be performing at this year's televised Dove Awards ceremony. Other Dove Award nominees include Lecrae who appears on Campbell's "Help," Hillsong, Natalie Grant, Mandisa, and Jason Crabb, among many others. The awards event will be taped on Oct. 7 in Nashville, Tenn. and will air later this year on Trinity Broadcasting Network. For the full list of nominees, visit here.
