Some Joyful Noises

Welcome back to My Seminary Life. Our journey through the birth of Jesus guided by our favorite Christmas hymns continues on with the most well known section on the birth of Jesus, when the angels appear to the shepherds. Our guides for this edition of Hymns of Christmas include a folk song that no ones where it came from, a song that the author's best friend changed the lyrics to without his approval, and one written by a pretty surprising source.

Welcome back to My Seminary Life. Today in our journey through the birth of Jesus, our guide is Oh Little Town of Bethlehem & Once, in Royal David's City as we reflect on hymns of arrival. Last week on Hymns of Christmas, we looked at Micah 5:2-6, this week we jump some 800 years later to Luke 2:1-7 to see the fulfillment of Micah's prophecy that the eternal ruler would be born in Bethlehem. The arrival of the Messiah shows us that God is not restricted by our limited understand of our circumstances. When life gets chaotic and stressful, we are reminded that God can bring His purposes together.

Let's talk Hymns of Longing.

Welcome back to My Seminary Life. In today's episode, I introduce our new series Hymns of Christmas; we will be journeying through the birth of Jesus guided by our favorite Christmas hymns. Today, we start with Israel's longing for the Messiah, which began all the way back in the Garden. I walk through Micah 5:2-6 to show a prophecy that Israel could hold on to during God's silence during Greece and Rome's occupation. Israel longed for a Serpent Crusher Messiah who would save them from captivity, and the hymns Oh Come Oh Come Emmanuel and Come Thou Long Expected Jesus capture that longing that Israel had.

How long, to sing this song?

Welcome back to My Seminary Life. This week on the show we have another addition of Rabbit Trail. This week I kick things off by recapping my latest sermon on Psalm 40:1-3 as the first part of my series on Processing Grief. Then I launch into the story of the composition and recording of one of U2's more religious songs, 40. I also discuss the significance of the War album, and how I have grown as a preacher over the past ten years.

The Church above preaches about an all-powerful and all-loving God but talks about Him with disinterest or even apathy! They speak of the incredible and miraculous, they speak of amazing news, but their worship services are filled with only melancholy and structure. They lack excitement whilst speaking of the most incredible and exciting news of all - JESUS SAVES!

.

This is the Underground Church and we believe the news of Jesus Christ saving and of the God of the Universe loving us to be worth getting wild and out about! We believe that we should shout for joy, scream praises to God, and to just get noisy in Church! Our churches should be filled with good song, conversations, and shouts of praise!

What is the meaning of "make a joyful noise"? What does the Bible say about a joyful noise? What is the joyful sound in the Bible? What does the Bible say about making noise? Why should we make a joyful noise to God? What is the prayer for Psalm 98? What is the meaning behind Psalm 98? What does the rivers clap their hands mean? What is the call to worship for Psalm 98?

.

In this episode, we will:

• Discuss the value in shouting for joy
• Deconstruct the liturgy of our churches
• Exegete Psalm 98
• Explore the importance of getting wild for God
• Meditate on the noises of nature
