Download or read book A City Called Heaven written by Robert M. Marovich and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 2015-03-15 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In A City Called Heaven, gospel announcer and music historian Robert Marovich shines a light on the humble origins of a majestic genre and its indispensable bond to the city where it found its voice: Chicago. Marovich follows gospel music from early hymns and camp meetings through the Great Migration that brought it to Chicago. In time, the music grew into the sanctified soundtrack of the city's mainline black Protestant churches. In addition to drawing on print media and ephemera, Marovich mines hours of interviews with nearly fifty artists, ministers, and historians--as well as discussions with relatives and friends of past gospel pioneers--to recover many forgotten singers, musicians, songwriters, and industry leaders. He also examines how a lack of economic opportunity bred an entrepreneurial spirit that fueled gospel music's rise to popularity and opened a gate to social mobility for a number of its practitioners. As Marovich shows, gospel music expressed a yearning for freedom from earthly pains, racial prejudice, and life's hardships. In the end, it proved to be a sound too mighty and too joyous for even church walls to hold.

Our incorrect perspective makes us spend our time on the least important things while ignoring those things that are most crucial. Take a break from the present and let E. M. Bounds help you discover A Place Called Heaven. Examining virtually all the Scriptures that pertain to heaven, Bounds masterfully explains the nature of heaven and our purpose in it.

Download or read book The Place Called Heaven written by Robert Lee and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2015-05-15 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You are about to read Dr. Robert G. Lee's greatest sermon - in my opinion. I know this is a broad statement for he is noted for his great sermons. Many of us believe him to be the greatest orator of our day, and one of the greatest sermonizers of all time. His messages have the depth of a Spurgeon, the eloquence of a Demosthenes, the wisdom of a Solomon, and the inspiration of a Longfellow. Dr. Lee has inspired me with his sermons many times. Along with thousands of others who have heard him at great conventions, his masterful messages have lifted me into the heavenlies. But never has anything he has written or spoken so stirred me as this message on "The Place Called Heaven." I shall never, never forget the first time I read it. I was conducting a revival in Aiken County, South Carolina. He had come to deliver his famous "Pay Day - Some Day" sermon. Some 4,500 people had been blessed by the message. Although I had heard it several times I was on "shouting ground" When we returned to our rooms that night, Dr. Lee gave me this message on Heaven to "look over." I did not put it down until I had completed it. Many times I had to stop reading to wipe away the tears. I was so stirred until I hardly slept that night. I was ready to leave the great revival and go at once to heaven. Dr. Lee is to bring the message at my funeral, if I precede him in death. I want him to use the substance of this book. In all sincerity I expect the mourners (if there be any) to forget my funeral and want to shout as they see heaven painted as no mortal man ever pictured it. I expect sinners to forsake their sordid sins and seek that city whose builder and maker is God. This book will remove the fear of death from the saved, comfort those bereft of loved ones and bring sinners to repentance. - Evangelist E. J. Daniels
Download or read book Heaven Is for Real written by Todd Burpo and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-07-11 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A young boy emerges from life-saving surgery with remarkable stories of his visit to heaven. Heaven Is for Real is the true story of the four-year old son of a small town Nebraska pastor who during emergency surgery slips from consciousness and enters heaven. He survives and begins talking about being able to look down and see the doctor operating and his dad praying in the waiting room. The family didn't know what to believe but soon the evidence was clear. Colton said he met his miscarried sister, whom no one had told him about, and his great grandfather who died 30 years before Colton was born, then shared impossible-to-know details about each. He describes the horse that only Jesus could ride, about how "reaaally big" God and his chair are, and how the Holy Spirit "shoots down power" from heaven to help us. Told by the father, but often in Colton's own words, the disarmingly simple message is heaven is a real place, Jesus really loves children, and be ready, there is a coming last battle.

Download or read book Under the Banner of Heaven written by Jon Krakauer and published by Anchor. This book was released on 2004-06-08 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NATIONAL BESTSELLER • From the author of Into the Wild and Into Thin Air, this extraordinary work of investigative journalism takes readers inside America’s isolated Mormon Fundamentalist communities. • Now an acclaimed FX limited series streaming on HULU. “Fantastic.... Right up there with In Cold Blood and The Executioner’s Song.” —San Francisco Chronicle Defying both civil authorities and the Mormon establishment in Salt Lake City, the renegade leaders of these Taliban-like theocracies are zealots who answer only to God; some 40,000 people still practice polygamy in these communities. At the core of Krakauer’s book are brothers Ron and Dan Lafferty, who insist they received a commandment from God to kill a blameless woman and her baby girl. Beginning with a meticulously researched account of this appalling double murder, Krakauer constructs a multi-layered, bone-chilling narrative of messianic delusion, polygamy, savage violence, and unyielding faith. Along the way he uncovers a shadowy offshoot of America’s fastest growing religion, and raises provocative questions about the nature of religious belief.
