Bob Lesnefsky
Bob, whose "rapper name" is Righteous B, is a full time suburban gangsta. His mad thuggish ways combined with his passion for Christ make this dunny dun the "Cadillac" of Christian hip hop.

B worked for 7 years as a youth minister before recording 3 fresh to death CD's, including his newest smash hit album, Sweatshop Sessions. On top of terrorizing the rap game, Bob has recently started a non-profit group, Dirty Vagabond Ministries, for the development of quality urban youth ministry. And he can do the robot like nobody's business. You can peep out his adventures in music and ministry at www.RighteousB.com.

Fr. John Amsberry
Fr. John Amsberry wanted to be wealthy and have a big family. He thought that meant having lots of money and a wife with lots of kids. God called Fr. John to be a priest and gave him a new definition of wealth and a big family. True wealth is having Christ and the big family he now has is the some 7 billion people on planet earth. Fr. John loves being a priest and is sold out for Jesus. All across the land, Fr. John keeps shoutin' out with his life and words that Jesus embraces, loves, forgives and saves sinners! That B Good News! Also, you need to know that he recently dunked on LeBron in a pick-up game. OK- that was a lie. You may reach Fr. John in many ways on the Internet including www.uareloved.com
