This episode is a discussion of why we like to attend the Good Shepherd Institute. GSI is a conference for pastors, church musicians, and others involved in ecclesiastical arts. Held in early November at Concordia Theological Seminary in Ft. Wayne, GSI is a wonderful opportunity to hear glorious church music, listen to first-class presentations on church music and pastoral theology, and interact with ecclesiastical artists and their work. Listeners will hear St. Paul’s Director of Parish Music, Allison Mackie, back on the program, and note our enthusiasm for what we encountered, and what an encouragement it was for our daily work leading the congregation in Word, Sacrament, and song.
