He moved naturally into the field of book writing, where he has received numerous awards, and articles for publications ranging from &#8220;Discipleship Journal&#8221; to &#8220;Physician&#8217;s Magazine.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p> He also hosts a radio program, &#8220;In the Studio With Michael Card,&#8221; carried on the Moody Radio Network. Each 55-minute show is structured around Card&#8217;s three passions &#8211; community, creativity and commentary &#8211; based on his belief that &#8220;it is out of community . . . the impoverished power that sets the soul free . . . that the gospel comes to life.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>The program airs locally on WNLR, 1150 AM, Churchville. <\/p>\n<p> Reserved tickets are $18 and $20 for Gold Circle (the first 10 rows of the center section of Lehman Auditorium) and are available from the EMU box office, 540-432-4582 or on-line at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.emu.edu\/boxoffice\/\">www.emu.edu\/boxoffice<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p> Tickets at the door are $20 reserved and $22 Gold Circle. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Veteran contemporary Christian music artist and writer Michael Card will be in concert along with special guest Andrew Peterson 7:30 p.m. Friday, Apr. 20, in Lehman Auditorium.
