Various Artists Hear some of this century’s finest talent sing soul-stirring spirituals. Show DetailsYou need only to read the Bible to realize how much God cares for the oppressed. In 19th-century America, the oppressed were the slaves—a trial that brought the nation to the Civil War.
Yet out of that dark period of US history came some of the most moving and soul-stirring songs of faith and hope. As you listen, you’ll hear some of this century’s finest talent as you touch that century’s heart.
Musically, these favorites have been arranged in the style of George Gershwin’s musical Porgy and Bess, adding a contemporary beat without sacrificing the historical or ethnic spirit.
On the liner notes, you’ll read about Rev. Josiah Henson, a leader in the underground railroad and the inspiration behind Harriet Beecher Stowe’s landmark book, Uncle Tom’s Cabin as well as 9 other inspiring slaves who have left behind a tremendous legacy.
This album is full of songs, some that are toe-tappin’ and that are heart stirring, but the message is always faithful to the gospel.
Features the voices of: Wintley Phipps, Larnelle Harris, Billy Davis Jr., and Marlyn McCoo

Day of Discovery Get to know the man who discovered uses for the peanut and helped shape twentieth-century America. Show DetailsYou probably remember that George Washington Carver invented over 300 uses for peanut butter. Did you know that while at Tuskegee Institute he became one of the world's foremost experts in horticulture? In fact, George Washington Carver almost single-handedly reinvented land management in the South following the ravages of too much cotton and tobacco farming. He was so brilliant that Henry Ford and Thomas Edison tried to hire him, but he said no. Do you know why? Because he wasn't after fame or fortune. The most important thing in George Washington Carver's life was that he was a Christian. He simply marveled at God's creation and wanted to help all mankind.
