Music

This month's playlist will be called "I'm Feeling...Free," to help us better understand and express how it feels to be stuck and trapped, and, with God's help, become free.

When we feel alone and isolated, we can become afraid that if we really let people in, they won't accept us for who we are. But God wants fill the hole that loneliness creates.

Music speaks to the soul and helps us express parts of ourselves that are too deep for words. We can use music to help us feel closer to God, as well.

We all have talents and gifts that make us who we are. But too often, insecurity and self-doubt plague us with the fear that we aren’t good enough or will inevitably fail.

Music can help spur us on, where we can not only intellectually understand the need for change to the world around us, but be stirred in our hearts to become the people who bring that change.

Emotions can be overwhelming. Emotions were also overwhelming for the psalmists, but they had an outlet for understanding and expressing them – music!
