Throughout the show, there are several standout moments, including Richard Smallwood's tender performance of "Total Praise" and Erica Campbell's dynamic rendition of her hit single "Help." There are also plenty of surprises, such as a soulful duet between Michelle Williams and Deitrick Haddon and a lively performance by gospel rap pioneer Lecrae.

The show's finale is an epic performance of "Total Praise" featuring all of the night's performers, led by Olrick Johnson. The entire audience joins in, singing along and clapping to the beat, as the show ends on a high note.
