Chapter One: "Heaven is Where I Want to Be" featuring Andre Pipes from our Soul Mass​
​The idea: African-American hymnody invites white Christians to sing beyond themselves, and to seek radical empathy with Black people.
​
Chapter Two -- "Gonna Lay Down My Burdens" on Spirituals 
​
​The idea: The stories surrounding spirituals are fascinating and mysterious, and the fact that they exist at all points to the deepest truths of our faith. We are already saved; we are already loved; so let’s live that way.
​
Chapter Three: “Lead Me, Guide Me,” on early gospel
​
​The idea: How the songwriting and musical techniques of gospel music draw worshipers into God’s presence during worship, and keep them close to God throughout the week. 
​
Bonus Songs: Three Early Gospel Song -- Andre Pipes Medley
As a bridge to the next episode of "Let Us March On," Andre Pipes sings three early gospel songs.
​
Chapter Four: "Total Praise" featuring Darryl Purvis
​The idea: Gospel has developed in different directions, but it all praises and celebrates the abundant love of God.
​
Chapter Five: "In Christ there is No East or West"
​The idea: The Episcopal Church has a robust tradition of nurturing Black musicians, whose work expands our hymn repertoire and draws us into "one great fellowship of love."
