The Taylors




A southern gospel quartet performed at church tonight, The Taylors from North Carolina - four talented vocalists who enchanted their audience with musical excellence coupled with upbeat excitement and a strong message of hope.  Although hearing issues kept me from fully participating, their addictive energy lifted me to a higher plane, almost like surfing on a wave of four-part harmony.

When I think of their travel schedule and the rigors of continual performance, I marvel at their vision. It is no small thing to sell out to a touring lifestyle, especially when income is spotty.  I wonder what it would be like to live as they do - to always be on-the-move, constantly inserting themselves in others lives and injecting doses of encouragement.
