The Osmonds reached what was arguably the peak of their fame in 1973. That year, the band made what many considered an interesting decision and released The Plan, a landmark album that explored the eternal nature of God\\u2019s plan and the role of Jesus Christ in salvation. Alan Osmond almost always sang backup vocals but, as the oldest of the Osmond brothers, was in many ways the leader of the brothers\\u2019 group and the writer of many of the Osmonds\\u2019 songs. In this episode, Alan shares the inspiration behind The Plan\\xa0as we celebrate the 50-year anniversary of the album.\\xa0

\\u201cWe\\u2019re not ashamed of the gospel and that\\u2019s why I just can\\u2019t be quiet about it.\\u201d\\xa0
