  • Music and the American Civil War
    “LIBERTY’S GREAT AUXILIARY”: MUSIC AND THE AMERICAN CIVIL WAR by CHRISTIAN MCWHIRTER A DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History in the Graduate School of The University of Alabama TUSCALOOSA, ALABAMA 2009 Copyright Christian McWhirter 2009 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT Music was almost omnipresent during the American Civil War. Soldiers, civilians, and slaves listened to and performed popular songs almost constantly. The heightened political and emotional climate of the war created a need for Americans to express themselves in a variety of ways, and music was one of the best. It did not require a high level of literacy and it could be performed in groups to ensure that the ideas embedded in each song immediately reached a large audience. Previous studies of Civil War music have focused on the music itself. Historians and musicologists have examined the types of songs published during the war and considered how they reflected the popular mood of northerners and southerners. This study utilizes the letters, diaries, memoirs, and newspapers of the 1860s to delve deeper and determine what roles music played in Civil War America. This study begins by examining the explosion of professional and amateur music that accompanied the onset of the Civil War. Of the songs produced by this explosion, the most popular and resonant were those that addressed the political causes of the war and were adopted as the rallying cries of northerners and southerners. All classes of Americans used songs in a variety of ways, and this study specifically examines the role of music on the home-front, in the armies, and among African Americans.

According to Alan Mobley, registrar, fall break is usually set for the first or second week of October. In recent years, it has been the first weekend. Mobley said that this year, the break was planned so that students would be in school for the home football game this weekend. Laura Christ, Praireville junior, liked having fall break on the first weekend of October. LSU gets out at the same lime we did last year, so it isn t good for me because all my friends will be in school when I am off, she said.

  • Unholy Hip Hop ... Satan in the Church!
    Unholy Hip Hop ... Satan in the Church! Christian Hip Hop EXPOSED! By David J. Stewart "But I have a few things against thee, because thou hast there them that hold the doctrine of Balaam, who taught Balac to cast a stumblingblock before the children of Israel, to eat things sacrificed unto idols, and to commit fornication." -Revelation 2:14 The above Scripture is a rebuke of the church in Pergamos for HOLDING THE DOCTRINE OF BALAAM. The "doctrine (or teaching) of Balaam" is that of being unequally yoked with the world. Satan has successfully infiltrated many churches today, most in fact. All across the world, especially in America, churches today are saturated with ignorance, demonic music, and doctrines of devils. Many pastors and youth ministers have fallen for the Devil's BIG LIE that the best way to reach today's youth is through so-called Christian music that mimics the unsaved world's music. Truthfully, there's NOTHING "Christian" about such demonic music. Shouting hip-hop's praises By Cathy Lynn Grossman, USA TODAY TAMPA — The pastor bounds past the disc jockeys at the turntable bank under the nightclub lighting of Crossover Community Church's worship/concert space. The Rev. Tommy Kyllonen is in his Sunday best — a sparkling white "Twice-born" T- shirt under his open sport shirt — as he strides onto a catwalk and launches into a sermon on "how Christ would roll," how he would act, facing anger, self-righteousness and deceit... Welcome to hip-hop church — a multiracial, multi-ethnic, mega-decibel, authentically biblical worship service where urban street sound and style take a holy spin.

    NOT AN EVENT. A MOVEMENT. MAY 17–20, 2018 NASHVILLE, TN MEET THE SPEAKERS AND MENTORS CLICK PROFILE PICTURES FOR MORE INFO 2 TED BRUUN’s story really begins in a doctor’s office over 25 years ago. Having fallen over 70 feet (seven stories) from a coastal precipice, landing headfirst on the sharp jagged rocks below, and still surviving, Ted listened as the Doctor told him that he had “no explanation” for how he had not been killed by the fall. It was in that moment that Ted (an insecure and “at risk” youth who had been raised by a single mother who had put him in private school and forced him to go to church) remembers knowing 2 things for sure: 1- that he was alive because a very REAL God had saved him, and 2- if this God wanted his life that bad, He could have it. From that point on, Ted says that he has tried to live his life according to the Calling that God placed on his life. In the more than 25 years that have passed since the life changing epiphany that came with his fall from a cliff, Ted has felt God develop a passion in him for the counter culture, the people that would never normally be reached by traditional outreach methods. As the Founder and Executive Director of The Reach Alliance, the parent ministry for The Extreme Tour, Stitch’s Cultural Project, and The Objective, Ted has worked with his team to develop effective, creative, and cutting edge strategies for outreach in this new millennium.
