Our Third Reformation Concert
Last Sunday, brother Toshi announced that the Worship Ministry will be holding our third Reformation Concert at GBC on the 27 October 2018. In 2014, we held the first in the old building, and we held the second while we were "building-less" in 2016. Our third, will be held in our new building to give thanks to God.
This year, the concert will take us to the Psalms, to sing what we believe about God's grace -- Whom we belong to, and how grace compels us to behave. With sola Scriptura, the leaders of the Reformation rediscovered the Psalter, Israel's prayer and song book. Martin Luther called it "the Bible in miniature", and John Calvin said that "there is no other book in which we are more perfectly taught the right manner of praising God".
In the Psalms, God is adored in glory, our sins confessed are with raw honesty, and Christ Jesus is lifted up as our only hope. Throughout church history, the Psalms have inspired hymnwriters to write music for the church. Raw and sincere, the Psalms help keep cynicism, unbelief and hardened hearts at bay, if we will take them into our hearts and on our lips.
Will you pray about being involved – play an instrument, help out, or most of all, singing? As before, you do not need to read music or have special training, and as long as you can attend most of the rehearsals, do join us!
