Announced on Amy Grant's official website today, the multiple Grammy-winning Christian artist Amy Grant will be starring on an NBC reality series. Through the new reality show titled "Three Wishes," the dreams and hopes of people will be fulfilled and made into reality with Grant leading a team of experts.

"Everyone secretly wants the chance to fulfill a lifelong wish that seems beyond their grasp -- and this show will help transform those dreams into a life-changing reality," said Jeff Gaspin, President, NBC Universal Cable Entertainment & Cross-Platform Strategy, who made the announcement.

Viewers will be able to follow the path of hope and of making wishes come for the deserving families. Each wish, involving a deeply personal story, range from tearful re-unions with long-lost relatives to helping to save a dedicated teacher's job and from saving a local economy from debt to even living out a mind-blowing sports fantasy.

Grant shares, "When I heard about this show, I was extremely moved by NBC and the production company's concept to provide incredibly positive changes in the lives of different people. Seeing the initial prep work the producers had done for the pilot episode gave me reason to look at my own life -- and remind myself, once again, to never underestimate the impact that one life can have on another."

"I knew that whoever wound up hosting this show was going to have a front-row seat to some pretty amazing interaction with some very deserving people. I'm so glad my name was thrown into the pot and I look forward to working with NBC Universal Television Studio and Glassman Media -- and I hope that together, we are able to make a lot of dreams come true."

The show will begin production later this month in Northern California under the production of Glassman Media and NBC Universal Television Studios. Executive producers are Andrew Glassman (NBC's "Average Joe" seasons 1-4) and Jason Raff (NBC's "Average Joe," seasons 1-4)
