The Steve Harvey-hosted show featured a "Who's Who" of gospel greats including Ricky Dillard & New G, Kirk Franklin and Marvin Sapp. It also offered a few guest stars including Faith Evans and Johnny Gill.

The event even drew "Glee" star Amber Riley. Riley performed during a tribute to Mahilia Jackson alongside Yolanda Adams, Shirley Caesar and Jennifer Holliday.

Riley was impressed with Adams, writing on Twitter, "She is always flawless."
