Curb Records band Selah recently surpassed sales of 1 million units combined for its five albums: Be Still My Soul (1999), Press On (2001), Rose of Bethlehem (2002), Hiding Place (2004) and Greatest Hymns (2005).

Selah's sales passed the 1 million mark following Family Christian Stores' special promotion of Selah's Christmas title, Rose of Bethlehem, earlier this fall. The exclusive retailer of the album this year, Family Christian Stores has sold more than 95,000 units since the promotion began.

Rose of Bethlehem currently holds the top spot on Nielsen SoundScan's Christian Retail chart (week ending Nov. 27). It also recently reached No. 1 on the Billboard Top Pop Catalog chart and the No. 3 position on the Billboard Top Holiday Albums chart.
