Learning to Lament

The book of Psalms, containing both praises and laments, was used by Israel in worship. Western churches today, however, worship in praise more than lament, leading people to believe that their sorrow is from a lack of faith. The balance of praise and lament in the Church is important because it allows us to bring our whole self to God and acknowledge God’s response of faithful love. By looking at other cultures and understanding the language of the Psalms, churches can authentically worship God together through lament.

Rhythm Sections: Are They That Important?

A typical rhythm section consisting of drums, bass, guitar, piano, and horns works together to create the foundation of a song. While vocalists are usually the highlight of a musical group, the rhythm section determines the feel of a song and makes it all possible. This presentation will show that because this section is so versatile, one can use the same chord progression and instruments but different grooves to completely change a song.
