Why do we sing? It's a stranger question than it sounds — and it's worth asking.
In this first message of Playlist Theology, Forrest traces worship music all the way back to its roots: an ancient hymn fragment discovered in an Egyptian trash dump, written on the back of a corn contract, sung by Christians who were being arrested for their faith. At the center of that tiny, 35-word song is a claim that was countercultural then and still is now — that God is the only giver of all good gifts.
What you believe about God shapes who you become. And sometimes, the songs we sing are the best way to remind our hearts of what's true before we fully feel it.
