The music genre known as Southern gospel is traditionally regarded as old-time gospel hymns and songs with a strong melody, coming in easy listening format and rendered in four part harmony. Over the past 20 years Indiana songwriters and entrepreneurs Bill & Gloria Gaither have broadened the interpretation of this genre to include two and three part harmonies and to encompass musical styles as varied as country, bluegrass, ragtime, pop, black gospel and even classical. In so doing - and particularly through their longstanding Homecoming series, they have succeeded in popularising this music form throughout the world, particularly in European countries such as Norway, the Netherlands and Ireland. Undoubtedly, some Homecoming projects work significantly better than others. I'd include among some of the better, indeed quite excellent, ones 'Church In The Wildwoods' (2005), the Israel recordings (also 2005) and the more recent Homecoming Picnic release, with its ambient campfire setting. Thankfully, the latest output in this famed series also fits nicely into such noteworthy category. Filmed in a mammoth tent set up in the grounds of the Billy Graham Library in North Carolina, it seeks to recapture the spirit of the old-time tent revivals of the early to mid 20th century, which were extremely common throughout the States. The set kicks off with a harmonious group vocal rendition of "Yes I Know", a Gaither favourite which features on several previous releases (popular songs often get repeated on later Gaither output). This is followed by a wonderfully lively rendering of "When The Saints Go Marching In", though to a slightly different tune (and including a delightful brass interlude). The Gaither Vocal Band feature next (present line up is Bill Gaither, Mark Lowry, Michael English and Guy Penrod). And so the show rolls on - song after beautiful song - and all masterfully delivered (there's no doubting that Homecoming vocalists truly are top-rate singers). Among the non-Homecoming guests appearing on this venture are The Oak Ridge Boys and The Imperials, while recurring Friends include The Hoppers, The Nelsons, David Phelps, Janet Pashal, Stephen Hill and Jeff & Sherri Easter. Two standout tracks in my opinion are the striking take of the old hymn "Take My Hand Precious Lord", with superb solo gospel vocals from Angela Primm, and The Isaacs' superfluous (as always) rendition of "I Believe In A Hill Called Mount Calvary" - all three of the Isaac siblings have terrific voices and each gets highlighted on this tune. The ministry of Billy Graham features prominently throughout the DVD, and we're also treated to interviews with Cliff Barrows, longtime music and programme director for the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association, and George Beverly Shea, who regularly sang at Graham's crusades (now aged 101 and still quick-witted and in good voice!). A number of short spoken skits also crop up from time to time - inspirational moments beautifully written by Gloria Gaither and read out by various Homecoming artists. So far all very well and good. I do, however, have two quibbles with this product (as with various other Gaither DVDs). The first is that with a couple of tracks featured on the playlist, we only get to see 10 or 20 seconds worth before it's quickly faded out and we're offered a spoken piece instead. I find this really annoying, not least because the few brief moments we do hear sounded pretty good! (Must be pretty annoying for the artists too, to find that their only performances on the venture have been erased, not being considered worthy of full inclusion). The songs in question are "I'm So Glad", which features a further solo from Ms Primm, and "I Need Thee Every Hour", rendered acapella by The Nelsons. My other quibble is the actions of a few of the Homecoming team, who can be constantly seen looking to their far left or right to see if they're appearing on the video monitor, and if they are, immediately playing up to the camera with instant smiles or gestures of enthusiasm. It looks so false and somewhat cheapens the set as a whole. Thankfully most Homecoming Friends have become seasoned performers and act fairly naturally on camera. These defects notwithstanding, this is a truly powerful performance with many fine moments. Running at a full two hours, it makes for both a most entertaining, but also a genuinely worshipful viewing.

Being “Othered” is Real
Format: Kindle
Sky Full of Elephants opens with a haunting and unforgettable image: all the white people walking silently into bodies of water. That beginning alone tells you this is not a book that will play it safe. It is bold, layered, and deeply intentional.
The writing is beautiful and the story forces readers to confront what Black history truly is: American history. The novel doesn’t just imagine a world; it holds up a mirror to the one we’ve lived in and the one we’re still shaping. It explores identity, belonging, grief, and survival in a way that feels both speculative and painfully real.
As someone who grew up attending predominantly white schools, I connected deeply with Sidney’s experiences. Being “othered” (constantly reminded that you are different, that you don’t quite belong) leaves marks that follow you long after childhood ends. Some of the moments Sidney endures felt painfully familiar, and I found myself reflecting on my own younger self while reading.
What struck me most, though, was reading this story as a mother.
I have a biracial daughter, and her experience has been very different. She has never been made to feel like she doesn’t belong. She has never been othered. She has always been rooted in her Black identity, primarily raised by her Black mother, surrounded by family who affirm her. Even after I remarried and joined a Black family, she was embraced fully, never questioned, never treated as “less than,” never made to feel separate.
Reading Sidney’s journey made me profoundly grateful that my daughter’s story has unfolded differently. It also reminded me how much environment, affirmation, and community matter in shaping a child’s sense of self.
Sky Full of Elephants is more than a speculative novel. It is a meditation on race, memory, and belonging. It asks hard questions about America while honoring the fullness and complexity of Black identity.
This book lingers with you. It sparks reflection. It opens conversations.
And for me, it felt both personal and powerful.

Good Read!
Format: Audiobook
I read this along with my son and his girlfriend in a family “book club”. We had a good discussion about the ending, as we each had differing perspectives, but that was fun! The book was really interesting, and the characters were so well defined and deeply moving. Good read, but the ending left us a little confused.

Thought provoking
Format: Kindle
Sky Full of Elephants is a work of speculative fiction that begins with the premise that the white population of the United States has been wiped out. Starting a year after “the event” and following Charlie, a man who spent 20 years in prison due to a cowardly lie, and his resentful, biracial 19 year old daughter, who witnessed her only known family drown themselves, it is at its core a quest for identity in its many forms and how trauma can co-opt that search. In rating and reviewing this book, I’m aware that my lens as a Gen-X, cis-het, white woman, will have a differing view from others’ lived experiences. In reading other reviews, I definitely saw points that I didn’t consider, which I hope is the main point of the book. I do think, as a work of speculative fiction, that it does require the suspension of disbelief from the get go. It is a philosophical “what if” that Mr. Campbell invites the reader to consider.
Intrigued by the premise, I was drawn into the story due to Mr. Campbell’s lyrical writing style. The narrative had a rhythmical flow to it that supported the world building and characterizations. I found Charlie to be a very sympathetic character, rebuilding a life shattered by lies in a new world and confronted with the daughter he never had a chance to know. Sydney, Charlie’s daughter, was more of a struggle to empathize with. While her feelings were justified and understandable, her growth throughout the novel was erratic. As the story has an ambiguous ending, perhaps her character will continue to improve. For supporting cast, the grumpy pilot Sailor and his nonbinary child, Zu, offer a counterpoint to Charlie and Sidney’s emerging relationship. The king and queen of Alabama and the thriving town of Mobile were well fleshed out. The Walkers and Sidney’s Aunt Agatha in Orange Beach represented those who were lost in their own way, either due to clinging to their former proximity to whiteness or to the religious biases they were raised with. I found the Walkers to be the most tragic of all.
The questions of identity throughout the story are what kept be invested throughout. Are we defined by the color of our skin, our behaviors, the groups we belong to, the choices we make? Are others more valuable or worthy who don’t suffer the same things we do? Does there have to be those that are “lesser” to make us feel whole? As a trauma survivor with C-PTSD, I struggle with my own issues of identity and worthiness, and as a former Special Education teacher, I’ve been witness to that struggle in others. I have never understood or accepted the idea of White Supremacy or Christian Supremacy or any of the myriad ways that humanity continues to other each of us. In reality, there is no “us” or “them” only”we”. Charlie questions who he is as a Black man in the US, a convict, a teacher, a father, and ultimately a fixer and healer. Sidney grapples with her biracial otherness, her wealthy upbringing and sheltered life, the trauma of abandonment, and the lies that her life was built on.
The ethical question of the machine at the epicenter of the event adds another layer to the story. While the effects of the first usage were unintended, once they were known is it right to continue to fix it and use it again? Can healing a part of collectiveness that harms or destroys another part ultimately be worth the cost? The world and its people are broken and desperately need healing. But just like the question of eugenics, what of value is lost when specific traits are universally stripped away? And who gets the to decide what is of value anyway? The ambiguity of the ending doesn’t answer the question entirely of what happens when the machine is repaired, but Charlie’s ability to fix things leads me hopeful. Personally, I cared enough about these characters to be interested in a sequel.

A book that makes you think!
Format: Paperback
This was a super good read, very imaginative. It dealt with identity, belonging, insecurities, family matters. The way it was written was unlike any book I’ve read this year.

The Possibilities
Format: Kindle
Despite its potential, this book ultimately failed to resonate with me. I found myself repeatedly compelled to put it down, as the focus on the empowerment aspect was overshadowed by the narrative’s preoccupation with re-triggering ourselves through the perpetuation of a harmful lie. This lie, which has tragically cost many Black men their lives and livelihoods, diverted our attention from the more profound themes of rebuilding culture, redefining ourselves, and creating a new world. Instead of exploring the possibility of a beautiful utopia, we were subjected to a process of de-centering ourselves and centering them, their likeness, and the relentless pursuit of proving our worth. While there were indeed wise words that moved me, I was left questioning the purpose of dedicating so much time to those who did not share our sentiments. Who are these individuals who required our convincing, and who are we who felt compelled to do so? I found Sydney, her family, and the inhabitants of Orange Beach to be unlikable characters. I fear that the plot was compromised when the focus shifted to inclusion.
