Overview:
Songs have a unique and special way of taking hold of our hearts: we often remember song lyrics easier than written words, a loved one will come to mind when their favorite song is played, or we are eager to pass down favorite songs from generation to generation, connecting us with people in many times and places.
This love of song is well known to us at Mount Olivet, a church who sings the faith and holds a collection of songs and hymns that unite us as a worshiping community. The Bible, though coming to us through the written word, is also filled with songs, many of which are found in Luke’s Gospel. From Mary’s song of praise after visiting Elizabeth to Zechariah’s prophetic proclamation after an extended time of silence, and more, these songs of scripture have become a cornerstone to our own life of faith, even though we might not even be aware of them.
Join Pastor Olson Popp and Pastor Grangaard as we take a deep dive into these beautiful songs in Luke, songs of praise and God’s faithfulness, that sustain us along our journeys and invite us to sing our songs of faith.
