Show Hope presents Steven Curtis Chapman and his family embarking on a new journey together this fall as they venture out on a "A Night with the Chapmans." The special family affair kicks off Sept. 10, 2010, in Lancaster, Penn., and will hit 34 cities before ending on Nov. 21 in Baltimore, Maryland.

The night of music and hope with the multi-platinum selling and award-winning artist will feature some of his most memorable hits from his two-decade career. Songs to expect include "Live Out Loud," "Cinderella" and many more. Chapman also will bring back by popular demand his request time when attendees can request specific song to be added to the set via StevenCurtisChapman.com.

"We've prayed for months that each evening of this tour be an opportunity to ponder important things and to celebrate the hope we have in Jesus, the great hope I'm so thankful continues to carry us all," Chapman said.

As a part of this very special season, Mary Beth Chapman will join her husband for the first time ever on the tour. "There are three things I told God I never would ever do: homeschool, adopt and speak in public," she said. "Well, we've already homeschooled; you know we've adopted; now this fall, I'll be on stage speaking at Steven's concerts." With a smile Mary Beth adds, "Now I'm telling God I will not go to Hawaii for three months."

Mary Beth will share her journey as reflected in her inaugural book Choosing to See co-written with Ellen Vaughn and available September 2010 and. Discussing her courtship and marriage to Chapman, struggles for emotional balance and living with grief, she will open up about how she has wrestled with God even as she has allowed Him to write her story—during times of happiness and tragedy. Mary Beth's transparent style will surprise audiences with the depth of her faith struggle and her sense of humor. Mary Beth and Steven also will introduce audiences to the band Caleb, a new group featuring their sons Caleb and Will Franklin.

Show Hope, the title sponsor of the tour, is a ministry founded by the Chapmans that enables individuals and communities to change the world for orphans not only addressing a child's need for food, shelter, care and spiritual nourishment, but also by addressing the root issue for an orphan: the lack of a family.

In other Chapman news, the title track from his current album Beauty Will Rise is now impacting radio. Beauty Will Rise, released last winter, is a collection of 12 compelling and profound songs created during the walk through the darkness of the loss of daughter Maria, while God continued to meet Steven on the journey. Equal parts lament, praise, grief, hope, wrestling and pondering, these tracks resonate as psalms. It is a desperately hopeful, raw, personal and honest recording, likely the most important of his incredible music ministry.
