Its the official holiday. So I’ve chosen what is probably the shortest of the video compilations, but also the most appropriate. This one concentrates on hymns.
What is a hymn, you say? A hymn is a song of praise. It usually tells us a story of what God has done and will do. As a part of the tradition of the church it unites us through story with the church eternal, past and present. We need to know the story of who we are, where we came from and where we are going. A proper hymn, like the Bible itself, fills this function.
Creational and relational type Renaissance man (writer, singer, thinker) holding to C.S Lewis's credo that if you follow truth originality takes care of itself, (anyway, originality is so yesterday, anyway.) That I have my wonderful wife Jasini is proof enough for me that life isn't fair. If it was fair I wouldn't have her, and instead she is my most faithful example that I am blessed beyond measure. My two adult children are the same unmerited blessing to me. We should all be thankful life is not fair but blessed.
