Having been a Gospel Singer for many years I am used to Black “Southern Style” Preaching.
I know some folks might be put off by it, but hang in there. It’s a genre, and it’s very American! :-)
HALLELUJAH!
I love Southern Gospel, especially male quartets. As church pianist here in TN, I was introduced to Southern hymns — shape notes in the “Redback Hymnal”. Love those songs.
Southern (white or black) preaching ... not so much.
