Who Says Arkansawyers are Hicks?

I wasn't sure where to put this clip. I pulled it from my sister's blog. It is is the chorus from John Brown University in Siloam Springs singing one of my favourite songs from my years in chorus at Harding. They do a great job, almost as good as we did

Here is a partial clip of this years chorus from Harding singing the same piece.

This only proves that Hicks can sing Classical music.

It is God that multiplies our sorrows....
God, as a righteous Judge, does it, which ought to silence us under all our sorrows; as many as they are, we have deserved them all, and more: nay, God, as a tender Father, does it for our necessary correction, that we may be humbled for sin, and weaned from the world by all our sorrows; and the good we get by them, with the comfort we have under them, will abundantly balance our sorrows, how greatly soever they are multiplied. - Matthew Henry

Josh, you are a Hick, but not a hick.

BTW, it just occurred to me. The clip of the Harding group above is the Concert Choir, not the the Chorus. The Chorus is the better group. You wouldn't believe how tough the auditions are for that group. Here is a page with several MP3 links of the group singing if you want to hear some great choral music.

Harding University - Chorus - Listen

Here they are singing the same piece, Holy Radiant Light.

My second son (MBA and JD) graduated from John Brown University with a B.S. (summa cum laude) and MBA (His wife finished her B.S. magna cum laude, and a M.S. in organizational management at JBU). He and two of his classmates were up against grads from several ivy league schools in law school. In their class of nearly 200 law students, all three JBU grads ranked in the top 10!

The fact that 3/10 of the top students were grads of a small Christian school in northwest Arkansas left the lefty gay law school dean scrating his head. He wondered how such a "right wing" school could produce such polished and accomplished grads.

JBU may err on the broadly evangelical end of the spectrum, but I can vouch for the non-Hickishness of their grads.
