I notice that I do not or cannot sing during times when I'm feeling really low emotionally. Whereas when I feel alive, joyful, I listen to music almost incessantly, and I sing loudly in the shower. The singing feels like something defiant and necessary, almost like a yell or a breath. I agree with you that music often ends up being fertile ground for spiritual & religious conversation & connection with my churched & unchurched peeps. This is good stuff, Julian.
Yes Alan! Thank you for this engagement. And yessir man, I hear you on when you feel muzzled. When I go through grief, my voice breaks and my mouth dries up. I'm thankful that we can have those moments of silence and those moments of jubilant praise. Amen to the spectrum. May the Spirit meet us in both. Thanks for your encouragement sir.
Very interesting.
Many thanks for your engagement, Joshua!
