Belief Shaped Not By Sermons

Being Presbyterian Conference 2022
In Company with John Bell

Afternoon Session

The song of the church was in Reformation times so important that only Psalms were sung. They came with the endorsement of Jesus and their purpose was more to shape spirituality than give people a good feeling.

Times have changed, yet what we sing – though preachers might deny it – has as much significance in shaping our belief as sermons.

This session, in which there will be plenty of singing, does not require vocal dexterity.
