Psalm 150 – Praise the Lord

The title of this post really says it all; it completely sums up Psalm 150. I love how this final Psalm in this awesome book of the Bible sums up the entire book as well. Though there have been laments and complaints to God throughout...

Johnny Cash recorded a song, originally written by Nick Cave, called “The Mercy Seat.” It is a powerful song about a man on death row. There is no indication of what his crime is or what evidence there was against him. Throughout the song he repeatedly...

Take My Life – I Am in Awe

Last week, I was listening to Jeremy Camp’s CD “Stay” in my car all week. It is his debut CD from 2002, and it’s one of my favorites. When I listen to my iPod in the house, I usually put it on shuffle and so...

Last night as I was getting ready for bed, I was listening to my iPod. The last song that came on I listened to three times because it was such a wonderfully uplifting song. It’s by Casting Crowns and is called “Glorious Day (Living He...

A New Experience – Taizé

Last Friday night, I attended a Taizé prayer service at a local college chapel. I had never been to one before. It was a wonderfully meditative experience, spending an entire one hour service devoted to simply praying and listening to God. So you may wonder why...

Music Monday Extra – DC-10

I was listening to my iPod yesterday and this great song by Audio Adrenaline came on. “DC-10” asks the important question, “Do you know where you’re gonna go?” In addition, it has a great swing beat that makes me want to dance. So I decided...
