The Rabbit Room presents this session from Hutchmoot 2024:

The Practice of Devotion: How Devotional Songs and Poetry Enrich Our Spiritual Lives (Jon Guerra)

The quality of corporate worship transcends music, instruments, and lyrics. It is a spiritual dimension measured only by God, linked to our personal intimacy with Him. Devotional songs and poetry, like the Psalms, are meant to shape and enrich our hearts. Just as “with the same mouth comes blessing and cursing,” a regular engagement with devotional content between Sundays can profoundly enhance the quality of our worship when we gather together.

We call Hutchmoot a “conference for everyone,” so it follows that this is a “podcast for everyone.” This series features sessions recorded at the Rabbit Room’s annual conference which celebrates art, music, story, and faith in all their many intersections.

Church and culture often tell us that art is a nice luxury but of no use when a crisis hits or for the chronic difficulties of life. But what if art is actually a divinely gifted set of tools, a way to bear witness to our shared humanity? Sophie Killingley takes you through stories of art history and her own experiences of
grief to uncover the necessity of creativity as a sacred way to fully engage a trauma-filled world.
