Texas Gospel Canada plays a blend of Southern Gospel and Country Gospel music. We call it Texas Gospel.
Southern Gospel music is a genre of Christian music that originated in the southern United States in the early 20th century. It is characterized by Bible-centered lyrics, four-part harmonies, and use of piano, guitar, bass guitar, and drums. Southern Gospel music often features soloists, duets, and quartets, and has a distinctive style that combines elements of traditional gospel music, hymns, and other forms of American popular music. The genre is known for its upbeat, celebratory sound and its focus on the message of the gospel. Southern Gospel music is popular among many Christian communities in the southern United States and has a strong following around the world. Country Gospel Music is a similar style, but with a much stronger emphasis on solo artists, many of whom are from Texas. The music broadcast by Texas Gospel Canada is not the main emphasis of its operator.
The station’s goal is to encourage Christians in a world increasingly hostile to Christian belief. While the station does carry some outreach-oriented material such as public service announcements provided by the Need Him organization, most of the non-music programming is produced for those who have already accepted Jesus as their savior. Our short features include programming from The Good News Broadcasting Association of Canada such as Laugh Again and Back to the Bible. Here is a schedule of short features heard on Texas Gospel Canada.
Our station also produces short thought-provoking segments that focus on apologetics, understanding scripture and illumination of the daily persecution believers face that often goes under the radar of the mainstream. Edification of the Body of Christ is the station’s primary objective.
