Music!

11/14/2024

Music has been on our minds!  

​And why not?
  • Singing integrates mind, heart and body, is a natural mood-booster, and syncs us up with community.
  • Music is a visceral connection to the past - it can bring back emotions and experiences from particular moments in our past, and in that way minister to us again in the present. The Israelites sang songs of God's past deliverance to face difficult circumstances.
  • Music can also be a prophetic reminder of what is to come, and ground us in God's reality that is greater than what we can see.
In the past two weeks, these things have been said to me:
"I need to sing, it gets me through tough times!"
"I wish I knew more of the songs we sing in church."
"When we sang songs from the pandemic it brought back how grounded I felt then and I found myself returning to that place within."

 
SO!
1- We are creating a collection of LNPC favorites to be sure we draw from them regularly. 
2-  And start coming early if you want to sing more - we'll be doing a pre-service singalong at 9:45 every Sunday!
3- 
And don't forget the LNPC Playlists! Many of the songs we sing are here. But also these are great driving/ background sound / devotional / remembering-what's-real things to listen to
