Psalms – Singing Transports Us Beyond This Earth

| September 15, 2009

We should all want to move our singing beyond the boundaries that stagnation can restrict it.  Beyond the corridors of our throats and lips.  Beyond the sound produced that is pleasing to the human ear.  Beyond four part harmony.  God has ordained an important role for our singing.  Sometimes the church has made it something […]
