NewSong

==== "Christmas Shoes" and breakthrough ====
DC, Eddie Carswell and Leonard Ahlstrom penned the bonus track "[[The Christmas Shoes (song)|The Christmas Shoes]]" for ''Sheltering Tree'', which became a No. 1 mainstream radio hit in a ''Billboard'' chart-record three weeks, topping ''Billboard''{{'}}s Adult Contemporary Chart.

Shortly after "The Christmas Shoes" became a No. 1 song, Clive Calder shut down the Benson label.  However, due to the huge career momentum coming off 2000/2001, NewSong stayed with Zomba Music, on the major Reunion label, and released a full studio Christmas album, ''The Christmas Shoes'', which was nominated in 2003 for a [[Grammy Award for Best Pop/Contemporary Gospel Album]]. Along with the title track, the album featured a variety of original Christmas tunes and Christmas classics "[[O Holy Night]]".

The song's success also inspired Christian author [[Donna VanLiere]] to write a book based on the song.<ref>{{cite web|title=NEWSONG|url=http://www.cbs.com/specials/christmas_shoes/band.shtml|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070808063716/http://www.cbs.com/specials/christmas_shoes/band.shtml|archive-date=August 8, 2007|access-date=August 29, 2007|publisher=cbs.com}}</ref> The book, which contained accounts of friendship from artists, singers, and speakers, won a Silver Angel Award.<ref>{{cite web |url= http://www.donnavanliere.com/Biography.htm |title= biography |publisher= donnavanliere.com |access-date=August 29, 2007 |archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20070927151800/http://www.donnavanliere.com/Biography.htm <!-- Bot retrieved archive --> |archive-date = September 27, 2007}}</ref> The book was on the [[New York Times Bestseller List|''New York Times'' Bestseller List]] in 2002.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://library.norweld.lib.oh.us/pemberville/files/NY_Times_Lists/NYtimes2002.pdf |title=New York Times Bestseller List 2002 |publisher=library.norweld.lib.oh.us |access-date=August 29, 2007 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070818031202/http://library.norweld.lib.oh.us/Pemberville/files/NY_Times_Lists/NYtimes2002.pdf |archive-date=August 18, 2007 }}</ref>

The book was later made into a [[TV movie]] for [[CBS]], called ''[[The Christmas Shoes (TV movie)|The Christmas Shoes]]'', starring [[Rob Lowe]] and [[Kimberly Williams-Paisley]], which was released on December 1, 2002. It had nearly 17 million viewers and was the second highest-rated TV movie of the 2002–2003 seasons.<ref name="NewSong">{{cite web |url= http://www.thefutoncritic.com/listings.aspx?id=20051017cbs06 |title= LISTINGS |publisher= thefutoncritic.com |access-date=August 29, 2007}}</ref>
