And such memories it's stirring up. I did not grow up in a Christian home and often when I did something I needed to be disciplined for, the discipline of choice would be to ground me from going to church. On those weeks when I wasn't allowed to attend church, I would watch church on TV. One program I remember watching often was the one with Rex Humbard. The Cathedrals sang on that. I can't even tell you what the doctrine was that they taught on that show. But I do remember the encouragement I got from watching them.

How about any of you? Do you remember watching any church shows on TV back in the 60's or so? Or what did you listen to on the radio for Gospel programming?

I grew up watching the Gospel Jubilee every Sunday morning. My dad loves Southern Gospel, and we knew every song by the Dixie Echoes, Florida Boys, Happy Goodmans, Blackwood Brothers, etc. We all listened to the music on our "hi-fi" TV as we got ready for church. What memories!!

We used to listen to the Rambos, Goodmans, Sego Brothers, and others while getting ourselves and 5 kids ready for Sunday School. In 1969 the Hemphills came to our ALJC church in Cincinnati. I think they were there for three services and we were there for them all.
