Book Description
In this ambitious book on southern gospel music, Douglas Harrison reexamines the music's historical emergence and its function as a modern cultural phenomenon. Rather than a single rhetoric focusing on the afterlife as compensation for worldly sacrifice, Harrison presents southern gospel as a network of interconnected messages that evangelical Christians use to make individual sense of both Protestant theological doctrines and their own lived experiences. Harrison explores how listeners and consumers of southern gospel integrate its lyrics and music into their own religious experience, building up individual--and potentially subversive--meanings beneath a surface of evangelical consensus. Reassessing the contributions of such figures as Aldine Kieffer, James D. Vaughan, and Bill and Gloria Gaither, Then Sings My Soul traces an alternative history of southern gospel in the twentieth century, one that emphasizes the music's interaction with broader shifts in American life beyond the narrow confines of southern gospel's borders. His discussion includes the "gay-gospel paradox"--the experience of non-heterosexuals in gospel music--as a cipher for fundamentalism's conflict with the postmodern world.

Book Description
Evangelical Christianity--the faith professed by one in four Americans--exerts an enormous influence in American society. Believed by some to have originated as a reaction to the social revolution of the 1960s, evangelicalism as a distinct subculture in fact dates to the advent of radio. The evangelical faithful flocked to the airwaves, developing a nationwide mass culture as listeners across denominational lines heard the same popular preachers and music. Evangelicals left behind the fundamentalism of the early 20th century as broadcast ministries laid the foundation for the culturally engaged New Christian Right of the late 20th century. This historical ethnography presents the era's major radio evangelists and songwriters in the own words, drawing on their writings and recordings, as well as songbooks, liner notes and "song story" anthologies of the period.

Book Description
Are you comfortable living on the surface of life, or do you strive to explore life’s enigmatic deeper core? Are you conscious of the possible immense insignificance of life when viewed as a tiny splinter in the fabric of a multi-universe some astrophysicists speak of? Can that realization be grounded in an existential sound sense that might make for communal coherence? How do you discover truth? Does a probing deep introspection help? How important is it to understand one’s Self? How severely do our existential confinements restrict our ability to grasp enlarging awareness? Is higher honesty something mankind is capable of? Exercising our God-given capacity for Reason may be the only outlet available to us for escaping the indited cloisters and confinements of our human condition. Becoming a pioneer in the forest of doubt may be the only way to attain to a newer vision of human reality.
