Michael Payton, who has brought us three top-selling motivational books, “Just for Thought-Articles of Motivation,” “Time to Think-Meditation and Reflection,” and “Hope: The Strongest Motivation,” now takes us into the world of Christian gospel music and the motivational impact it has had on Christianity throughout the years. Gospel music, whether it be Southern Baptist, country or rock, all have inspired and motivated people around the world to seek Christianity as the rule and guide of their lives. With “Gospel Music: Motivation Through Song,” Michael Payton presents 50 Christian songs, combining both traditional and modern-day, giving his interpretation of how each song inspires and motivates the individual to accept Jesus Christ as personal Lord and Savior. At the end of each chapter the reader will have the opportunity to record his/her own personal thoughts on what the song means to them. “Gospel Music: Motivation Through Song,” showcases the great motivational tool Christian music has been and still is in leading all of us to Christ.
