Life Words
From one college group to the next, that's been the story of the blog this season. If it's not college groups or high school groups, middle schools or elementaries, it's churches or civic groups. I usually avoid such things but I feel like I need to work my way though the hundreds of these records in my collection. There's usually something of interest on each one of them, at least worth one listen. Occasionally there's something you'll want to hear again, but if you're like me, you can't remember what it was. This is The Word Of Life Collegians-The Sights & Sounds Of Christmas (Word Of Life Fellowship 8511, Stereo, 1985). Just in case you're curious, Word Of Life Bible Institute, the people behind this album, do not appear to be associated with the Lutherans, or any other denomination. They have a campus here in Florida just a couple counties north of me (as well as one in New York state). That would explain how this album came to me, it didn't have to travel very far. Sometimes the forensics of album dispersion are easy, other times they are hard.

I'm betting the uploads will run through Easter Sunday: nice bookends of Jesus' Birth and Resurrection, plus I think it will happen to be exactly 100 days since Christmas.
ReplyDeleteDunno yet. Every time I try to plot something out, it gets all messed up. I'm just taking it day by day at this point. :)
DeleteErnie, you are utterly amazing!!
ReplyDeleteI'm just a guy with too much time and too many records on my hands. :)
DeleteWe're going to run into Christmas in July!
ReplyDeleteLet's hope not. In fact, let's hope there is a Christmas in July. I need to find some more Christmas songs from non-Christmas records...
