Book Description
Michael Praetorius (1571–1621) was “one of the most versatile, wide-ranging, and prolific German composers of the seventeenth century,” “also important as a theorist,” and “the most often quoted and excerpted writer on performance practice.” 2021 marks the four hundredth anniversary of this Lutheran musician’s death and the four hundred and fiftieth anniversary of his birth. Yet until now, no biography of this multitalented and fascinating man has been made available in English. This translation of Siegfried Vogelsänger’s 2008 German biography of Praetorius will introduce you to Praetorius’s family and employers, his work as organist and court music director, his sacred and secular musical compositions, his historical and theoretical musical work, his grandiose goals and plans, and—most importantly—the man himself. Appendices provide new insights into Praetorius’s ancestry and life, as well as new translations of primary sources written by Praetorius and others. Richly furnished with pictures and illustrations and supplemented with a glossary, Heaven Is My Fatherland will transport you into Praetorius’s world and open up for you the convictions of his heart.

Book Description
Each of us Christians wish there were some way to accelerate the progress in bringing GOD'S word to the people of our world who are in desperate need of it. We hear reports which seem to indicate we are losing ground. So what do you do? You write a book! And ask GOD to bless the effort while trying to reach out to the people of the world who don't as yet know about GOD'S great plan for all mankind and should be one of our top priorities. We should become more concerned about our own Christian family as we see what is going on in our Western civilization nations. The percentage of Christian church members who attend church on Sunday morning is moderate. Born in 1923 to Henry, Sr. and Anna (Temple) Thiel. Got early start in formal education when, at age four, walked four miles each day to a country school in Gering, Nebraska, as a companion to his sister. The school decided to let him enroll. Completing grade school education in Hastings, Nebraska, in 1935, his family moved to Fort Morgan, Colorado where he finished eighth grade. The oldest son in a family of twelve children, he left school to assist in farming. Enlisted in the Navy in 1942. 1944 married Doris Flohr; have three sons and one daughter. Celebrating 64th wedding anniversary June 11, 2008. He and a partner established three Auto Supply Stores in the area. Served as President of the Rocky Mountain district Lutheran Layman's League, Fort Morgan Chamber of Commerce, Fort Morgan Rotary Club; Commander of the local American Legion; Chairman of Morgan County Republican Party; board of director member of International Lutheran Layman's League, the Good Shepherd Home of the West, and Orphan Grain Train.
