The some time random but (mostly) theological offerings of a chatty preacher learning to use his words in a different medium.

Saturday in Easter Week

One of my favorite webstops these days is America Public Media's "Speaking of Faith" (The host, Krista Tippett, has recently authored a book by the same title). In addition to interviews with writers, poets, religious leaders and the like, the site has a feature called "SoundSeen".

This morning, I discovered an episode detailing the story of J. S. Bach's personal bible. The journey of that bible, from 18th century Europe to 21st century Missouri is a fascinating one. The story is set to a selection from Bach's Mass in B Minor.

Enjoy!
