Jesus gave us the two commandments, Love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, mind and love your neighbor as yourself. Matthew 22:37
Love the neighbor- taking care of each other, bearing each others burdens, celebrating each others victories... we are one family. We worship the Lord, we honor him with our care for each other. Grace and peace always.
@cambrode@jaledwith "...we wanted to make project where the worship songs that we were singing are songs that actually might be appropriate for us to sing to each other and, uh, 'cause they're songs that really talk about how we really are, um, the people that, that offer compassion and love grace and mercy and care to each other and so these songs celebrate community that way..."
I've "decided what it's about" based on what Mr. Haseline here said it's about.
This is very sad. We are not to worship ourselves or our love for each other. We are to worship God. You know, the one who SAVED US! The one who DIED ON THE CROSS FOR OUR SINS! This is very sad. You are tired of the songs that we sing "into the air" while "staring at a screen" but you are moving in the wrong direction. Why would you write worship songs about US?! What have WE ever done?! Who's souls have WE saved?! This is very sad and it makes me sick.
@ericrocksabeard I think he means that we'd sing them to each other as words of encouragement, not words of worship. You might want to listen to the record before deciding what it's about. Most of the songs are on YouTube.
@ericrocksabeard The idea is not to 'worship' ourselves, it's to support and SHELTER our fellow man, especially our fellow Christians. Like the original church did in the book of Acts, we are to be there for each other, offer love. You have completely misunderstood the purpose of the album. Go listen to it - you'll be pleasantly surprised that Jesus Christ, our Lord, is still very much the center and focus of their music and everything Jars of Clay believes in.
@ericrocksabeard I understand your point of view, though I don't think he was saying we should worship each other. He may not have expressed himself very well here. If you listen to the album there is nowhere that we are encouraged to worship each other.
However, you are entitled to your opinion as much as everyone, and I don't think anyone should put you down for your point of view. Just a plea that this should not stop you from listening to the album and being blessed. God bless!
Dan you forgot to mention that Amy Grant sings on your new ablum too. Can you tell what it was like working with Amy and how the idea to have her sing on "Benediction" came about?
I can't wait!! I listened to the whole thing, twice, when you guys had it streaming on your website. I loved it! My favorite songs were 'We Will Follow' and 'Lay it Down,' but the whole album was great! Keep it up, Jars of Clay! You guys rock!
Love their new album. Definitely one of their best!
