This setting of Psalm 131 was written, recorded, and submitted by Josh Davis and focuses on the practice of quieting the soul.

Psalm 131

How does this psalm piece interpret the psalm? 
In our extremely busy world, we are easily concerned with too many matters on a daily basis. It is vital that we learn to quiet our souls as the psalmist talks about and that we let go of things that are too lofty for us. 

Often our songs during corporate worship are directed to God or to one another; in the psalms, many times the songs are directed to the psalmist’s own soul. This simple, singable song gives us a chance to sing a lullaby over our own souls and is a wonderful lead-in to a time of silence.

Receptive Ecumenism in Neighborhoods, Soccer Fields, and Workplaces

This session will explore how to talk about differences in Catholic and Protestant worship. Every time we talk with a neighbor, teammate, or coworker from a different Christian tradition about what we do in worship and why, we are practicing liturgical theology. When marked by both conviction and humility, these conversations have rich potential for building holy friendships and deepening our worship of God. Yet they can also backfire, perpetuating stereotypes and leaving us unsure about the point of common practices. Come to this session to learn from veteran participants in both formal ecumenical dialogues and informal neighborhood conversations about how we can engage with believers across the Protestant-Catholic divide in constructive and healing ways.
