About Rebecca St. James
Awards
A multiple Dove Award winner as well as a winner of
America’s most prestigious musical Award, the Grammy®, Australian born
Rebecca St. James has throughout the late ‘90’s until present been
considered to be a major defining female voice in contemporary Christian
Music.
With the dawning of 2007, her groundbreaking album project Pray has most
recently achieved RIAA gold record status, following in the footsteps of
the previously gold certified RSJ album God.
In January 2007, she was for the 6th consecutive year named “Favorite
Female Artist” in Contemporary Christian Music by the more than 27,000
votes cast by readers of CCM Magazine, considered the flagship
publication of the Christian genre. Rebecca also repeated with the “Best
Female Artist of 2006” award from one of Christian music’s highest
traffic music sites, Christianitytoday.com, her fourth consecutive year to
be given this honor. With sales of her music soaring around the globe,
her signature blend of modern pop/rock sensibilities and lyrics of
unwavering devotion, has blazed straight to the heart of an entire
generation. Along the road of more than 200 concert dates a year, her
path has led to 17 Top 10 singles, 9 of which reached the #1 spot on
the charts.
In April of 2006, she won yet another Dove Award, Christian music’s
highest honor, for her participation in the “Special Event Album Of The
Year” for the Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch & The Wardrobe,
for which her dramatically charged song Lion was a centerpiece.
CRW Magazine has named Rebecca to the list of the “50 Most Influential
People in Contemporary Music.” Her book, “Wait For Me,” now in a 9th
printing reached the #1 spot on the prestigious CBA (Young Adult) book
chart in 2003, with Rebecca’s passionate, and often controversial,
challenge to young people to “stand strong” with her on issues of sexual
purity.
Books
She closed out 2004 with the much anticipated release of her new
book, “SHE,” on Tyndale. An impactful “where the rubber meets the road
guidebook,” for women of her generation, in “SHE” Rebecca gives a
controversial and impassioned voice for a modern womanhood based on a
return to biblical principles. The “teen” edition of the book—SHE
TEEN—launched in September of ’05—quickly reaching #1 on the CBA Young
Adult Chart.
If I Had One Chance to Tell You Something Album

in recent Christian Music history, it contains Rebecca’s trademarked
passion for unique self-written music, from rock and pop to symphony, her
first full on studio album in five years If I Had One Chance To Tell
You Something sonically embraces her passionate lyrics of devotion
and praise to God.
