The Kingdom's Songs

It's been said that every person on earth at every moment has some kind of song in their head, at any given moment you are thinking, or humming, or singing, or thinking about a song, no matter how complex or simple it may be. Is that true? Maybe. Today Terry looks at two songs found in Luke, Mary's song (Luke 1:46-55) and Zechariah's song (Luke 1:68-79), and while they may not have a familiar musical tune that we know, we sure do know the message they are filled with - The Gospel. Listen as he compares the two songs, not only with each other, but to the cultural songs that we hear on the radio. And if it is true that we have some kind of song in our head at all times, what better song to have in there than these two?

Series Information

Terry proclaims the one Gospel through the history, research, rememberings and faith expressed in the text of the Gospel According to Luke. Jesus himself is the good news expressed by Luke. Beginning with the birth narratives unique to Luke's presentation, the good news of the Kingdom explodes into faithful view as each account, teaching, parable and event lived out and offered by Jesus, the Messiah-King, is examined the way Luke seemingly examined Jesus in his own work. Here we find a Jesus to love, a Jesus to follow, and ultimately a Jesus to worship.
