Hey Blog Friends,
I understand there has been quite a sizable gap between my previous blog and the one you are reading right now. There is no firm excuse for this. I could claim busyness, which would be as true as anything I could say, but I won’t. I will just humbly ask forgiveness for those who care, and get on to more important things.
First, I want to inform you about a little contest my label is putting together. I’ve got this thing going called a “Mobile MOB”. Some of you may know about it. For those who don’t, in short, it’s a way for the enjoyers of my music and I to stay connected in a “next-generation” kind of way via texting. Before I go any further I want to thank all who have already joined while I’ve been out on the road. Now, I’m going to be running a contest on my MySpace from now till Dec. 19th to encourage even more people to join. There will be one lucky person randomly drawn from my MOB to win a vintage autographed electric guitar from me, kinda like a Christmas present from me to one of my MOB members! So I encourage you, if you haven’t already done so, join my MOB! It’s really simple and free and you’ll get all kinds of free stuff from me – wallpaper, ringtones, updates, etc. Just text ‘PHIL’ to 66937! Thanks
Now, A little update:
Last time I blogged I was in Boise. I’ve done a few things since then. The tour has gone to Denver, Manhattan (Kansas), Tulsa, Chicago, Cincinnati, and now we’re in Philadelphia, a town I have yet to explore. In between all those tour dates I’ve been doing a few dates on my own, as well as going to even more radio stations promoting the new single “After Your Heart”.
Here’s an example of what I’ve been doing at the stations, just to fill you in. This was in Cleveland, Ohio at 7:00 in the morning. Please excuse the scratchy morning voice.

The song is doing pretty good at radio. A lot more stations are playing it than any other single I’ve put out, which is cool. If you think about it, you can help by calling/emailing your local Christian station and requesting the song. It really makes a difference.
All the radio stations we’ve gone to recently have been in the mid-west. We spent a lot of time driving through Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, Ohio… I have experienced autumn like never before. I love San Diego, but it does not have seasons like this. Pretty amazing.
Well that’s it for now. Remember to join up with the MOB. Just text ‘PHIL’ to 66937
Thanks for reading and stay tuned for more blogs coming SOON!

i know this is so stupid to even post this, but i was browsing and saw “chicago” and “cincinnati” next to each other and my heart stopped. i live in chicago and i’m from cincinnati (i’m home sick right now…) i don’t know. just had to represent.
I am serving the choir at Springs Calvary, a small church in Colorado Springs. We would love to sing “True Love” at our Easter service, and wondered if we could purchase sheet music for this blessed tune somewhere? Please email me at lynne_vanarsdale@yahoo.com if you can help us.
IHS,

[...] today, I went and I expected to see what I’ve been seeing for the past two months: “MOB Contest and a little update.” But no, I did not see that but a brand new post title and no comments. So yeah for those [...]
Phil..*SNIFFF*..please update?? Something??? One word would be okay?? We miss you greatly!
Phil I need your help! I sent this to your booking agency and I have forwarded it to you a couple times as well.
Hi my name is Ashley Lowery and Phil Wickham came to my church to lead us in a
concert for New Years Eve (Calvary Tucson). My brother, his girlfriend and I
were all so excited when we were given the opportunity to meet Phil and take
pictures with him. On New years day I was going through the pictures on my
camera and I accidentally deleted the picture of my brother and his girlfriend
with Phil. I am completely devastated and upset. I was wondering if there was
anyway you all along with Phil could do something to help us out? My brother
really loves Phil and his worship, and most importantly his love for the Lord. I
know that Phil will be coming back for our church’s Past Present and Future
conference in May of this new year and was hoping that I would be able to get a
picture of them with Phil? I dont know if you could guarantee that could happen
but we would be so thankful. If there is anything you all can do I would really
appreciate it. Thank you for taking time to read this and
I would appreciate it if you would write back. Thanks again!

Phil might be at the family dollar store dont forget that

does anyone know who won the guitar?
Hey. Just got your CD. Love it!
Merry Christmas, P.W.
Merry Christmas and why not start your own blog and stop communicating on someone else’s? Maybe some people have chosen to stop “blogging”. Maybe they find it boring and have chosen to get out there and actually talk to live people.
I dunno, just a guess.
MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL READING THESE COMMENTS!
Phil, my name is Darin and my brother is Brant Hansen from WAy fm in florida – also of Kamp Krusty blog fame – he is friends with Shaun Groves – i wanted to ask you something – could you possibly email me at dhansen@fccn.org or watchdoctorwho@gmail.com
I don’t even think he will read these if he hasn’t already, haha.
No Zach.
I bet $10, Phil wants to KICK US very hard because we’re jokingly begging him to come back.
$1 dollar says he hasn’t even read these yet. Haha.
MERRY CHRISTMAS EVE (:
Hahahahahaha. He probably thinks we’re creeps :[
