If you look up the word 'arise' in the dictionary, one definition is 'to move upward, to ascend'. That is exactly what Arise is about. They have a desire to raise God up in praise and to uplift those around them through music.
Arise first began back around 1998. Jason Begley and Kim Romine, both current members and cousins, started the group. For years, they sang in their home church and around the community at various singings and church gatherings. But then God called for them to take their ministry further.
In 2002, Arise recorded their first album, the self-titled Arise. It was a collection of traditional Southern Gospel staples and fan favorites, including the songs "I Got Up and Went", "I'm Bound for a City", and the classic Dottie Rambo gem, "I've Never Been This Homesick Before".
During the summer of 2003, Arise was named a semi-finalist in the Exalting Him 2003 National Talent Search.
Arise recorded a new project titled A Living Testimony in the summer of 2004, currently being sold as a pre-release. It was produced by Jimmy Dooley (writer of Ivan Parker's current hit single "The Grace That I'm Under") and has a fresh, progressive sound. It is Arise's first attempt at original material, including songs written by Jimmy Dooley, John Darin Rowsey, Greg Day, Sheri LaFontaine, Crystal Lewis, and Arise's own Jason Begley. It also includes their first radio single, "Taking a Turn for the Best", featured on the Rick Hendrix Company's Compilation 33.
Arise is 'moving upward' and finding their own prominent voice in Christian music. They are young at age, young at heart, and yearn to spread God's word through music and ministry. They hope to release the final version of A Living Testimony as soon as possible.
UPDATE: Arise is now on an indefinite hiatus. Kim and Jason are currently devoting more time to their home church and concentrating on their personal ministries. They will be performing as soloists and as a duet in their home church so their music will continue to live on, but they have no plans to travel or sing as Arise in the near future. You may continue to listen to Arise's music here on MySpace and send them comments and messages. God bless you all and thank you for your support of the Arise ministry the past eight years!

I’ve been a music journalist for more than 10 years. Over the years, many artists and managers have asked me what the best way to break into the European music market is.
Here are some things you can do:
Publish artist press releases, news, and tour dates to the CountryHome Forum on MySpace, http://groups.myspace.com/CountryHomeMagazine , CountryHome Forum is part of CountryHome, http://www.CountryHome.de , Germany's Premier Country Music Online Magazine. Everything you publish to the CountryHome Forum will be published in my weekly Newsletter which has over 80,000 readers.
Send me CDs and DVDs for review and set up an artist interview with me. All reviews and interviews will be submitted to the magazines I'm writing for. More information for which magazines I'm writing can be found at http://www.MySpace.com/ChristianLamitschka
Upload artist videos to http://www.MyVideo.de and http://www.ClipFish.de . Both websites are like http://www.YouTube.com and uploading videos is free. The websites are completely in German. If you don’t speak German and need assistance, I will help you open an account and upload a video for 25 Euro. Each additional video upload for the same artist name and at the same video website is 10 Euro.
If you have more questions about the European music market or about any of the information I send to you today, please contact me at Ch.Lamitschka@t-online.de too.

The Lord spoke this to me one Thanksgiving a couple of yrs. ago. Happy Thanksgiving!
As I was sitting here thinking of all the things I was thankful for, I believe the Lord spoke and said. Have you ever asked me what I'm thankful for? I believe he said, I am thankful for my servants, who, through adversity, still worship me. I know and understand the difficulties that happen, because, remember, I was also tempted, in all points, as you have been. I am thankful for my children who overcome. I am thankful for those who have died for my kingdom. I am thankful for those who don't look to the things of this world, but have given themselves to me. I am thankful for your heart and your life that you have given to me. I cherish it above all else, for those whose hearts have been given to me, I will surely use in my kingdom. Maybe you can't cook. Maybe your rolls flopped today, when you wanted to make them special for your family. Maybe your pumpkin pie burned. Maybe you can't be in two places at one time. But I see your heart child, and I want you to know, that I love you with a love that is so indescribable, that you can't even fathom it. Yes, child, I am thankful for you. I pray and intercede for you. Nothing can take you out of my hand, because I clench my hand tight when the enemy comes and tries to steal you away. Worship me today!!! I am with you as you fill your plate. I am with you when you eat your turkey, mash potatoes, giblet gravy, dressing, olives, and green bean casserole, and Wal-Mart store-bought rolls. I am with you when you start on the dessert table. Oh, the pumpkin pies, and the pecan pies. Everything I make is good, don't you think!? I am with you as you sit around the table with those you love. I am with you when your heart breaks because there are some missing at that table. So, remember, as you enjoy today, I am there at your Thanksgiving meal with you. Observing and sharing today right beside you.
