Sometimes it&#39;s an accident; sometimes we come to a healthy life style too late and have incurred too much damage to completely recover. Now, music is taking a major role in helping critically ill patients recover. Imagine the role it could play in our lives when we aren&#39;t critically ill!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Music Speeds Healing&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As Victor Fabry slept in his hospital bed after open heart surgery, music gently filled his room. Immediately after surgery a live harpist played at his bedside, followed by the undulating strains of a Brazilian guitarist playing nearly nonstop from a CD player. His heart literally began beating in rhythm with guitarist Tomaz Lima. The music became &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.naturalnews.com/medicine.html&quot;&gt;medicine&lt;/a&gt;. &quot;Very restful, very soothing,&quot; said Fabry, 68, now almost two years removed from the surgery. &quot;The mind influences your recovery. Anything that quiets your &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.naturalnews.com/anxiety.html&quot;&gt;anxiety&lt;/a&gt; is powerful.&#39;&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Science supports Mr. Fabry&#39;s observations. Many &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.naturalnews.com/hospitals.html&quot;&gt;hospitals&lt;/a&gt;, including such renowned names as Massachusetts General and the Mayo Clinic are treating patients with music and medicine simultaneously. This therapy is being applied with ICU patients, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.naturalnews.com/cancer.html&quot;&gt;cancer&lt;/a&gt; patients and patients with brain disorders with astounding success. Even physicians admit there is more at work here than just a psychological high from the natural enjoyment of music.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Music weaves an intricate physiological dance with the body&#39;s neurons and &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.naturalnews.com/blood.html&quot;&gt;blood&lt;/a&gt; cells and this dance is now being intensely studied by various researchers. Their findings are being applied in more and more hospitals. Music therapy has actually been used for thousands of years. Today, scientists are just beginning to understand how it works. Dr. Claudius Conrad, a senior surgical resident at Harvard Medical School and a gifted pianist is about to launch a study of music&#39;s impact on the sleep cycle of acutely ill hospitalized patients. It has already been shown that if certain slow pieces such as some of the works of Mozart are played, the listener&#39;s heart will adapt to the beat of the music.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;From Music Notes to Hormones&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Musical tones follow an intricate highway from the head to the rest of the body. The trip begins with sound waves traveling through the air and landing in the middle ear where they cause the eardrums and bones in the middle ear to vibrate. The brain transforms the mechanical energy into electrical energy and then sends the electrical impulse to the &quot;thinking&quot; part of &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.naturalnews.com/the_brain.html&quot;&gt;the brain&lt;/a&gt;, the cerebral cortex which controls thought, perception and memory. The cerebral cortex then sends the impulses to the response centers of the brain that control emotion, arousal, anxiety, pleasure and creativity. Then there is yet another stop: the hypothalamus, a small area deep in the brain that controls heart rate, respiration, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.naturalnews.com/blood_pressure.html&quot;&gt;blood pressure&lt;/a&gt;, body temperature and the nerves in the stomach and skin. The hypothalamus strives to maintain equilibrium throughout the body. Think about how certain songs will give you &quot;butterflies&quot; in your stomach or goose bumps on your arms. This entire trip through the brain happens in less than a heart beat, but the journey has just begun.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;First, these electrical signals are converted to &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.naturalnews.com/hormones.html&quot;&gt;hormones&lt;/a&gt; in the brain. Dr. Conrad found that along with the need for fewer sedatives and the need to normalize blood pressure and heart rates, critically ill patients showed a 50% spike in growth hormone, produced in the pituitary gland, after listening to just one hour of Mozart piano sonatas. If patients or their families are unable to choose the music, Dr. Conrad often chooses Mozart for his critically ill patients. The various hormones then leave the brain and flow throughout the body via the bloodstream where they calm or stimulate various systems.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Classical music is the most common choice among &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.naturalnews.com/doctors.html&quot;&gt;doctors&lt;/a&gt; and therapists. The vibration of stringed instruments in particular is thought to intertwine with the energy of the heart, small intestine, and the thyroid and adrenal glands as shown by research at the Gagnon Cardiovascular Institute in New Jersey.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Hip Hop Healing?&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Scientists are now wondering what effect other genres of music such as hip-hop, country, rock, etc will have on healing? Will you heal faster with Mozart or with The Back Street Boys?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;I recommend listening to joyful music as part of an overall prescription for maintaining good heart &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.naturalnews.com/health.html&quot;&gt;health&lt;/a&gt;,&quot; said Dr. Michael Miller, director of the center for preventive cardiology at the University of Maryland Medical Center. Dr. Miller defines joyful as any music that brings on a natural high and maximizes the release of endorphins; the body&#39;s own feel good chemicals. His research has shown that hearing your favorite song causes your &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.naturalnews.com/blood_vessels.html&quot;&gt;blood vessels&lt;/a&gt; to dilate, hence increasing blood flow. He examined healthy volunteers as they listened to songs of their choice and discovered that the diameter of upper arm blood vessels increased by 26%. After listening to music which they hated however, these vessels narrowed by 6%. His research currently supports that any music the patient finds enjoyable will be healing regardless of genre.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Will Music Be A Prescription For Healing Brain Injury?&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Some of this research involves deep brain stimulation while the patient is awake. &quot;We&#39;re in the infancy,&quot; said Dr. Ali Rezai, director of the Center for Neurological Restoration at Ohio&#39;s &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.naturalnews.com/Cleveland_Clinic.html&quot;&gt;Cleveland Clinic&lt;/a&gt;. During a surgery called deep brain stimulation, performed while patients with &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.naturalnews.com/Parkinsons.html&quot;&gt;Parkinson&#39;s&lt;/a&gt; disease are awake, Rezai and his team play classical compositions and measure the brain&#39;s response to those notes. &quot;We know music can calm, influence creativity and can energize. That&#39;s great. But music&#39;s role in recovering from &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.naturalnews.com/disease.html&quot;&gt;disease&lt;/a&gt; is being ever more appreciated.&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This research at Cleveland Clinic during brain surgery is showing exactly how music stimulates neurons. Neurosurgeons collaborated with The Cleveland Orchestra to compose unique classical pieces which are then played for patients during brain surgery. Rezai then compares how neurons fire hearing this never before heard music vs. how they fire when hearing familiar music. He uses hair sized sensors placed in the brain which then translate the signals from the neurons to an amplifier. The study should be completed in three to 6 months.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When patients tell Rezai they find the music soothing, he is able to hear the changes in a single neuron. He is hoping this research will serve as the cornerstone for other studies of music&#39;s potential in treating traumatic brain injury, depression, stroke and multiple sclerosis.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Will Oldest Turn Out To Be Best?&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The oldest healing music is possibly still the most potent. Frescos painted around 4,000 B.C. depict harp-playing priests. Because of the unique properties of the harp, live harpists are being used today at such places as Gagnon, at the University of Rochester Medical Center and at least five other hospitals.&lt;br /&gt;&quot;This gentle but powerful instrument goes to the deepest places of the body that need to be healed,&quot; said Tami Briggs, a pioneer in &quot;harp therapy&quot; who has played at the bedsides of hundreds of patients, including many at the Mayo Clinic. Ms. Briggs, while not a medical professional, has observed blood pressure decreasing and oxygenation increasing while she plays and watches the monitors. She has also noticed subtle signs of relaxation such as the patient sinking deeper into the bed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What makes the harp so unique is that it is the only instrument that has 20 to 50 strings and is completely open, unlike other stringed instruments such as a violin or guitar. When a harpist strikes a chord, not only are the notes of the chord vibrating, but the strings above and below those plucked also vibrate. These vibrations appear to be absorbed by the body.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Music and Children with Cancer&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At Texas Children&#39;s Cancer Center a unique program has been developed to help patients and their siblings cope with cancer and its treatment. Here the children work with Anita Kruse and other professionals to write and record their own songs. This project is called &lt;b&gt;&quot;Purple Songs Can Fly&quot;&lt;/b&gt;. The children are able to make CDs which they can share with family and friends. The songs are also recorded onto purple CDs and taken on flights with participating pilots, passengers and astronauts and returned to the child signed and with a complete flight record. Yes, the Purple Songs have even gone into space! Purple Songs Can Fly symbolically lifts the child, flying and soaring, above the obstacles of their illness and provides a tangible symbol of the hope for healing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sources:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;mso-field-code:&amp;quot;HYPERLINK \0022http\:\/\/www\.msnbc\.msn\.com\/id\/30990170\/\0022 \\t \0022_blank\0022&amp;quot;&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;MsoHyperlink&quot;&gt;http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/30990170/&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;mso-field-code:&amp;quot;HYPERLINK \0022http\:\/\/www\.msnbc\.msn\.com\/id\/21134540\/vp\/24391634\0022 \\l \002224391634\0022 \\t \0022_blank\0022&amp;quot;&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;MsoHyperlink&quot;&gt;http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/2113454...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(Video of music and dance helping Parkinson&#39;s patients)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;mso-field-code:&amp;quot;HYPERLINK \0022http\:\/\/dailynightly\.msnbc\.msn\.com\/archive\/2009\/02\/20\/1802915\.aspx\0022 \\t \0022_blank\0022&amp;quot;&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;MsoHyperlink&quot;&gt;http://dailynightly.msnbc.msn.com/a...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;mso-field-code:&amp;quot;HYPERLINK \0022http\:\/\/www\.msnbc\.msn\.com\/id\/21134540\/vp\/29307845\0022 \\l \002229307845\0022 \\t \0022_blank\0022&amp;quot;&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;MsoHyperlink&quot;&gt;http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/2113454...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(Video of Purple Songs)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;mso-field-code:&amp;quot;HYPERLINK \0022http\:\/\/www\.purplesongscanfly\.org\/bio\.html\0022 \\t \0022_blank\0022&amp;quot;&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;MsoHyperlink&quot;&gt;http://www.purplesongscanfly.org/bi...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;h1&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:18.5pt&quot;&gt;About the author&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h1&gt;  &lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Verdana&quot;&gt;Patty Donovan was in a wheelchair and could only walk around her house with a cane. She was on over 20 &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.naturalnews.com/medications.html&quot;&gt;medications&lt;/a&gt;. When told to &quot;take the morphine, get in the wheelchair and learn to live with it&quot; by a neurosurgeon, she knew her life had to change. She is now almost a fanatic when it comes to healing through the use of &quot;whole foods&quot; and and natural remedies. Since that time, she has spent countless hours researching nutrition and alternative health. After spending 30 years in the allopathic health care industry in both pharmacy and as an RN, she brings a unique perspective to Natural News readers. Since committing to this new life style, she no longer uses even a cane, has gotten off over 20 medications, lost over 50lbs and returned to work.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;!--EndFragment--&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://morningsongestore.blogspot.com/feeds/4924595150936348002/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/7040794545935262545/4924595150936348002?isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7040794545935262545/posts/default/4924595150936348002'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7040794545935262545/posts/default/4924595150936348002'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://morningsongestore.blogspot.com/2009/07/music-possesses-amazing-healing-power.html' title='Music Possesses an Amazing Healing Power'/><author><name>Steve Darmody</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10377612771317738907</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg9Cv1GjnUQe5Lyu8MeLnl3WRNLzvWEDPLaIjG6zXDRsrILFCFcDePrC4eumNEIMD6BW-YF5i-MhtULfocl3UzxAybfV0H3jCdMYMRTY_Y0p6VSHTTqe0PmRsKiSlCLhg/s220/Darmody_up.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7040794545935262545.post-5562927699843638430</id><published>2009-07-03T09:09:00.008-04:00</published><updated>2009-07-09T18:49:01.558-04:00</updated><title type='text'>Steve Amerson on MSNBC on July 4th</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot;   style=&quot;  ;font-family:Arial;font-size:medium;&quot;&gt;&lt;a name=&quot;LETTER.BLOCK26&quot;&gt;&lt;table class=&quot;ArticleBorder&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; width=&quot;100%&quot; cellpadding=&quot;5&quot; cellspacing=&quot;0&quot; id=&quot;content_LETTER.BLOCK26&quot; style=&quot;margin-bottom: 5px; &quot;&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td styleclass=&quot;style_ArticleText&quot; rowspan=&quot;1&quot; align=&quot;left&quot; colspan=&quot;1&quot;   style=&quot;color: rgb(0, 0, 0);   font-family:Verdana, Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Verdana, Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; font-family:Verdana,Geneva,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#000000;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:130%;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold; &quot;&gt;Steve&#39;s Appearance on  MSNBC on July 4th&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;img style=&quot;float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width:; height: 200px;&quot; src=&quot;http://www.amazedbyamerica.com/images/sa.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:100%;&quot;&gt;On Saturday, July 4, Steve had a very full day beginning with an interview on MSNBC in the heart of M&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:100%;&quot;&gt;&lt;img height=&quot;135&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; name=&quot;ACCOUNT.IMAGE.125&quot; width=&quot;177&quot; alt=&quot;MSNBC photo&quot; src=&quot;http://origin.ih.constantcontact.com/fs029/1011288023050/img/125.jpg?a=1102635472583&quot; align=&quot;right&quot; /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:100%;&quot;&gt;a&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:100%;&quot;&gt;nhattan.

The event took place on June 13th at the Prudential Center. Some of the biggest names in Gospel music were featured including Patti LaBelle, Donnie McClurkin, CeCe Winans, Regina Belle, J. Moss, Vickie Winans, Cissy Houston, and Bishop Hezekiah Walker.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;McDonald’s Gospelfest is a talent competition of rising stars of all colors, ages, cultures and faiths that compete in a variety of categories, produced and directed by Emmy Award winning Producer, A. Curtis Farrow. Over 80,000 people auditioned to participate (a hundred member choir translates into 100 applications). Introduced this year was the category of Christian Contemporary Soloist. Christine Sinclair, a singing evangelist and member of the North Bronx Seventh-day Adventist Church, was selected as a solo finalist in this category. (Christine is well known singer in the Adventist Church having sung for many major events aired on The Hope Channel and 3ABN.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This was the second time Sinclair participated in the festival. In 2005, she was a solo finalist at Madison Square Garden featuring Aretha Franklin. Though she did not win that year, she considered it an honor just to have been selected to perform. This year, she not only placed as a finalist, but received a stadium wide standing ovation as she sang a soul-stirring rendition of Amazing Grace, that won the competition. To God be the glory!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For Christine, the main purpose for participating in the festival was to be a witness through song, and the opportunity to have her God given talent heard by a broader audience. “Winning the competition and making music history was just the icing on the cake!” says Sinclair. In her opinion, music ministry is not about the fame, rather bringing honor and glory to His name. Witnessing to the world sometimes means being willing to minister outside of our normal church setting. She thanks God for the talent she has been gifted with, and for providing her with such a wonderful opportunity to minister in music. &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Among this year’s judges was Grammy Award winner Roberta Flack. The host of the show was Emmy Award winne r Brenda Blackmon of My9 WWOR-TV newscast. The show will be broadcast on My9 TV Network on July 19th at 9:00 p.m.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;UCAA congratulates Christine! We are happy to support our sister in Christ. Please support Christine she is available for Concerts, Church Programs, Conferences, Crusades &amp; Evangelistic Meetings, Weddings and Other Special Events.

A Neglected Remedy</title><content type='html'>Sing or hum a song. Not only does singing improve one’s mood, but humming and singing can actually prove therapeutic! Concentrations of nitric oxide in healthy sinuses are high and nasal nitric oxide is known to be increased 15- to 20-fold by humming, compared with quietly exhaling. Nasal nitric oxide is known to be broadly antifungal, antiviral, and antibacterial.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ask God’s creatures. Starlings, who are robust singers, exhibit enhanced immunity when compared to their counterparts, non-robust singers. Studies show that singing also increases IgA in the saliva. IgA is a class of antibodies that guard the mucus membranes in the body, including the respiratory mucosa.  Singing will improve your breathing capacity, reduce stress, and probably lift your spirits! Incidentally, listening to choral music reduces the hormone cortisol3 which exerts immunosuppressant effects when produced in excessive amounts. A merry heart, indeed, does good like a medicine.</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://morningsongestore.blogspot.com/feeds/5335521230510687056/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/7040794545935262545/5335521230510687056?isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7040794545935262545/posts/default/5335521230510687056'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7040794545935262545/posts/default/5335521230510687056'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://morningsongestore.blogspot.com/2009/05/humming-or-singing-neglected-remedy.html' title='Humming or Singing...

We were located in an apartment project, inside a small church. It was a great day and I found myself overwhelmed with the plight of the children in the area. I received a strong message from God that I was to start a children’s choir with these kids.  Over the next few hours and days I became so excited about this, it felt so right and I was so inspired. I prayed and asked my friends to pray about this. A few days later I made the commitment and started putting it together.  I made up a flyer and Kathleen, Wayne and I went to the area and handed out flyers to interested people. We had a great response. A few days later AngelAID was contacted to make a pastry pickup at Publix (like Safeway) three times a week. After the Angel families were taken care of there was lots left over for the Southside Apartments(my choir kids) Wayne and I have attend several times now meeting residents, gaining their trust and detailing plans about the choir. We pray and ask for payer every time we go to the area. Its very dangerous, drugs dealers, hookers, pimps and all are black people and we’re the only white people there. There is tension and mistrust every time we show up but slowly barriers are loosening with the some of the men (teenage and young men).  ...  Miracles happen around us, from people getting saved to being healed, physically and spiritually.  &quot;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://morningsongestore.blogspot.com/feeds/6937889172330964219/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/7040794545935262545/6937889172330964219?isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7040794545935262545/posts/default/6937889172330964219'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7040794545935262545/posts/default/6937889172330964219'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://morningsongestore.blogspot.com/2009/04/juanita-faas-story-of-service.html' title='Juanita Faas - A Story of Service'/><author><name>Steve Darmody</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10377612771317738907</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg9Cv1GjnUQe5Lyu8MeLnl3WRNLzvWEDPLaIjG6zXDRsrILFCFcDePrC4eumNEIMD6BW-YF5i-MhtULfocl3UzxAybfV0H3jCdMYMRTY_Y0p6VSHTTqe0PmRsKiSlCLhg/s220/Darmody_up.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7040794545935262545.post-712228068577726693</id><published>2009-04-01T20:06:00.004-04:00</published><updated>2009-04-01T20:09:25.652-04:00</updated><title type='text'>Bobby Michaels Passes Away While in Cambodia</title><content type='html'>This is a copy of a letter from Bobby&#39;s Family dated March 31, 2009:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;Our hearts are aching as we tell you that Bobby passed away this evening shortly after going into the operating room.

The name of the CD was, Shall We Learn to Be Friends.  Well, the title became prophetic as Lari and I began a friendship that has lasted through three decades.  In 1995, Lari and I produced our second CD together, which continues to be my biggest selling CD: &lt;span style=&quot;font-style: italic;&quot;&gt;Hymns on Heaven and the Second Coming&lt;/span&gt;.   Now with my most recent CD: &lt;span style=&quot;font-style: italic;&quot;&gt;The Time That Remains&lt;/span&gt;, Lari, as its producer and arranger, has produced three CDs for me spanning three decades.  I love this man for many reasons.  Not only is he a genius arranger, but he is a kind and generous person – and a friend.  I love his jokes, his love of ministry and musicians, and his drive to simply make &quot;great music&quot;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Recently Lari won another Dove Award for Musical of the Year - &quot;Grace That Amazes&quot; (Word).

As the ministry grew, other artists of like mind and mission were invited to partner with Steve in ministry projects. Morning Song has since become a respected Christian Record Label, featuring some of the finest inspirational Christian music ministries.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt; As a producer of an annual Christian Artist retreat called, Christian Music Etc., Steve became acquainted with many of our nation&#39;s finest recording artists through booking them as performing artists at the retreat. Dick and Mel Tunney, Steve Amerson, Babbie Mason, Bobby Michaels, Faith First and more.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;The Morning Song eStore was born to meet the need of providing a single source for the best in inspirational music. We began with our label artists and have continued to grow a list of fellow music ministries that represent the finest in gospel music.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;The Morning Song eStore is a family run business. We pride ourselves in doing our best, responding always in Christian love and courtesy. We love working with customers who have the same priorities. Problems happen, but Christian grace leads us to work to fix any problem with kindness and integrity.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt; We hope you will enjoy our ever growing collection of  Christian Music, soundtracks, and music and ministry related books.&lt;/p&gt;      &lt;h3&gt;Our Address:&lt;/h3&gt; &lt;ul&gt; Morning Song Distributing, Inc.&lt;br /&gt;540 Richland Pkwy&lt;br /&gt;Suwanee, GA 30024-2946  (located in northest Atlanta)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;     &lt;h3&gt;Hours of Operation:&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;ul&gt;10-6pm Monday-Friday&lt;br /&gt;Closed on Sunday, Saturday and select Holidays.&lt;br /&gt;Alternate url:  www.MSeStore.org&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://morningsongestore.blogspot.com/feeds/7250756542030857035/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/7040794545935262545/7250756542030857035?isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7040794545935262545/posts/default/7250756542030857035'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7040794545935262545/posts/default/7250756542030857035'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://morningsongestore.blogspot.com/2008/02/1st-blog-entry.html' title='Welcome to the MS eStore Blog'/><author><name>Anonymous</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/blank.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
