Two different incidents are swirling around in my head right now. The first involves a killer whale and Josh Groban. The second involves a discussion in my home group, where we are reading Bonhoeffer’s Life Together. The discussion centered around this quote concerning worship through corporate singing:
We asked each other, is this true of church music today? Can we say of modern worship songs that the music serves the words of Scripture? Or do the words of our worship songs serve the music? Can we say that we, the worshipers, love the words more than the melodies? How can we tell? Read moreAll devotion, all attention should be concentrated upon the Word in the hymn . . . the music is completely the servant of the Word {Scripture}. It elucidates the Word in its mystery.
