Introduction

Good morning and welcome to the Oklahoma Southern Gospel blog!

My name is Eric Stuve and I am a Southern Gospel fan from Oklahoma City. I am 26 years old, my birthday is July 12, and I have been married to my wonderful wife Katie since October 25, 2008. I came to know Jesus Christ as my personal savior on July 18, 1996, when I was 13 years old. Katie & I are members of Highland Hills Baptist Church.

I have many interests other than Southern Gospel, but my main interest is in roads & highways and taking pictures of highways around the country. I have 2 websites for that hobby, OKRoads.com and OKHighways.com, and I maintain a blog at okroads.blogspot.com. I also enjoy sports & video games, and am a fan of the Oklahoma Sooners, Atlanta Braves, Oklahoma City Thunder, Dallas Cowboys, and Detroit Red Wings.

My love for Southern Gospel started in 2001 when I was a senior in high school. I started getting CD's of the Cathedrals, Gold City, and the Inspirations. Most of my CD's to this date are from these wonderful quartets. In 2006, I attended my first Gaither Homecoming concert in Oklahoma City, and at that time, I became a fan of Ernie Haase & Signature Sound. Most of the CD's I have bought since then have been from EHSS.

On September 30, 2009, I got an iPhone, and I confess that since then, I have used it more for the iPod than for the phone! Having access to iTunes has made it much easier for me to download Southern Gospel music from several other groups besides the ones I have CD's for, including Legacy Five, Greater Vision, and Triumphant Quartet, among several others. It's been wonderful listening to other groups and realizing there was more Southern Gospel music out there than I ever thought before. I currently have 834 Southern Gospel songs on my iPod, which includes the CD's I had before and the songs I have downloaded.

With this blog I hope to accomplish a few things:
  • Mention Southern Gospel concerts in Oklahoma
  • Review the concerts I am able to attend
  • Provide my opinions on news in the Southern Gospel world
  • Keep all comments and commentary as positive as possible

I look forward to what the future has in store and I hope this blog becomes a good source of information about Southern Gospel concerts in Oklahoma!
