For all you cessationist folk, that is!

All other readers can very well just… carry on!

With all this present fomenting on the Parachute Experience, Man of Spin thought it profitable to play it again Sam, with one video from an act that was at Parachute last year, and a second video from a context (I will call it thus) that I would love to see at the Festival.

This is going to be… Worship Genre in the House!

This first number is from The Dave Crowder Band, which musically has a little sound of heaven, particularly with that little piano introduction, but more significantly, words that are powerful lyrically, that draw us God-ward, as we give it up for the One who is worthy!

The video, I think, also gets it.  It has a metaphorical impact, beyond even the literal scope of the images present.  It is a metaphor for how we Christians should be in this world… at the time when the young man stops in the middle of the intersection, and sings unaccompanied forthwith, I find it is screaming at me… think a city on Hill should not be hidden people (Matthew 5:14-16), we should be in the world, living, loving, and leading others toward a reality of Christ, without shame, without recompense, and without fear!

Turn these up loud, and look up!

This second number is a Sovereign Grace piece, a worship fraternity that consistently churns out Christ-centered, God-glorifying pieces of prose to score, which call the redeemed sinner to the Source of Everything.  This is a potent number!

One should affirm that the video is put together by a young individual not related the Sovereign Grace people, with scenes from The Passion of the Christ!

Remember, Greater love has no man than this, that He lay down his life for Friends (John 15:12-17; Rom. 5:6-11)

We might have some other numbers, in another genre, as Parachute 20-10 draws closer!
