You'll hear hymns, Gospel songs, sacred classics, or choruses, as well as interesting and informative comments about how many of the songs were written. Through the Hymnbook, a subsidiary of the ministry, A Visit with the Joneses, has been airing since the mid-1950's. Usually the organ music is played on a Hammond 3000; you will hear chimes and the singing of a live canary, Singspiration.
