Listening to Music

Listening to Music Music is packed with messages and emotions, and at the very least, it represents a sect of the culture we’re living in (for good or for bad). Some music might lead us to recognize how God is at work in the world, and some might expose realities of brokenness and pain. Either way, there’s plenty to be heard and understood both about the artist behind the music, and the culture it speaks to (Proverbs 1:5). We can experience the expressive art of music and let God teach us through it. Through Jesus all things were created (Colossians 1:16). Things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, menial, or of utmost importance. Through Jesus, even all of the boring, everyday stuff was created. And Colossians says it was created not just through him, but also for him. That’s why it’s here, in the everyday stuff of life, that we can meet with Jesus. And that’s why we’re setting out to reclaim meaning in our everyday tasks.
