Remember the sneakers? Remember the sweater? Remember the cute little song? It was always a beautiful day in Mr. Rogers’ neighborhood. And no matter who you were, you were invited to be his neighbor. It was an invitation to be in relationship—but not a real relationship. It was, after all, a TV show. Life can be a lot more complicated than Mr. Roger’s idyllic neighborhood. Maintaining real-life relationships that are healthy and authentic is challenging. Whether it’s a relationship with your parents, your friends or a stranger, Jesus’ call to “love your neighbor” has huge implications.
Music is a powerful force in our culture. It reflects our values, influences our behavior and reveals the issues we are facing. Join us for a four-week series called “Soundtrack” as we look at four songs impacting pop culture viewed through the lens of scripture. We will focus on the music of Ingrid Michaelson, Linkin Park, John Mayer, and Five For Fighting. So bring a friend, listen to the tunes and open your heart for something more.
