About six months ago our church made the first steps to start singing less “Jesus is my boyfriend” music and more theologically rich, historically Christian, and beautiful music.

And if someone sang this -they were quickly told- Hopefully they were told kindly- but they were told to not use language like that when singing Song of Solomon. Even with the first verse. Singers would sing- 'kiss my heart or awaken my heart with your revelation. Or with your word.' Anyway- that's what I remember. And that's what the teams I served on did.

The little voices in the foreground tell me everything I need to know. Keep plodding, my faithful brother!
