Let us play
I have written previously about (children’s) play as a model for liturgy. “As children we play at what may one day become a reality.” (Celebrating Eucharist Chapter 1). These videos bring in another dimension of “play” – playing music together. In this case a mobile recording studio recorded the same song in many different places with the belief that “music has the power to break down boundaries and overcome distances between people.” As churches bicker with each other over obscure differences, and fight internally about comparatively minor issues, these videos remind me of some of the things that are really important, and give the challenge and hope that liturgy, “playing together,” might also have the power to break down boundaries and overcome distances between people.
love the music and the message, wish more people around the world could hear it.
‘For this is the message you have heard from the beginning, that we should love one another.’ John 1. 3:11
Beautiful music and timely message! Thanks for sharing this. Keep up the good work. Peace to you, Jon Burnham
