Jay's Gospel Jubilee

Julie and I headed home after a wonderful Sunday night service and made dinner together. I was flooded with a memory of my family growing up.

There was a season in our lives when on Sunday evening after church we would head back to our little old house on Pennsylvania and make dinner. Usually mom and Joseph were in the kitchen cooking up tacos, burritos, hamburgers, something easy and good. Dad and I would be in the living room where we would often play chess waiting for supper.

Always in the background Dad would have Jay's Gospel Jubilee - a radio broadcast that was dedicated to Southern Gospel music on Sunday nights on KLUR, which was normally a country western station. I can still remember so vividly Dad waiting to hear The Gray Speckled Bird, getting excited when I would hear the announcer mention this week's sponsor was the Dutton Funeral Home, and the smell of ground beef cooking in the kitchen.
