It is the Alpha and Omega of God’s spiritual principle that plays upon the keyboard of mans integrity.   It is a resonance, an echoing sound throughout the ages that has surrendered the wonders of God’s Almighty creations.

Gospel Music owes its grandeur and its sense of veracity to Thomas Andrew Dorsey who is called the “Father of Gospel Music.”  He combined Christian praise with the rhythms of jazz and blues.  Mr. Dorsey wrote many songs, two of his greatest were “Precious Lord” and “Peace in The Valley.”  Both of these songs were written after the tragic death of his wife and newborn son.  These songs have become community owned songs, as singers and listeners throughout the world relate to the words of assurance that are delivered and adopted in the messages.

There has been no other event in history that has been more compelling, convincing, or persuasive than Gospel Music.   Some of the most beautiful music of all times was born out of intense grief and suffering, and Gospel Music is no exception.
