Becoming the people Jesus taught us to become.

Sing, Shout, Jump, Dance!

This week, a rather light post.  On Sunday we looked at worship in Psalm 66 and one of the points I lifted up for consideration was how often commands like "sing" and "shout" pop up in the pages of Scripture.  As adults, of course, we sometimes struggle with such commands as we fear obeying them may make us look foolish or reveal our lack of talent for such things.

KBAM (Kids' Bible Adventure @ Miller) started on Sunday evening and I was struck by the straightforward lack of concern for what others might think of these kids as they worshiped God with songs and shouting and jumping and dancing.  The psalmist would have been pleased.  Even more fun to watch, of course, are the wonderful teens and adults who also jumped right in - equally unconcerned with the opinions of others.  Enjoy this video from our opening night of worship at KBAM.

    IF you have not seen this you need to go this evening or be sure you get to church on time to see all the great pictures they have gotten. As the nurse sitting in the hallway keeping a watchful eye I see everyone finish supper wash hand and talking and strolling towards the gym AND then the music begins and smiles spread, the pace quickens, jumping, dancing and arm waving begins long before they arrive in the gym! One little boy jumped so high I thought he was a going to take off and fly!!!
    You gotta see it!!!
