Report on Emily Brink’s global songs presentation at Baylor
Wednesday, April 14th, 2010
We’re delighted to read this report on our colleague Emily Brink’s presentation at Baylor University:
Songs can be adopted from one culture to another but must be treated with respect, according to Dr. Emily Brink, a senior research fellow at the Calvin Institute of Christian Worship.
In her lecture Tuesday, titled “International Adoption Agents: How Songs Find New Homes,” Brink talked about how songs cross cultural lines.

City of God, Easter forever,
golden Jerusalem, Jesus the Lamb,

Psalms grant featured in Charlotte Observer
Wednesday, April 7th, 2010
Christ the King Presbyterian Church, recipient of a Worship Renewal Grant, was featured in the Charlotte Observer on Saturday:
Christ the King Presbyterian Church might seem an unlikely congregation to undertake an intensive 15-week focus on the Book of Psalms. The contemporary-style church meets in the Underwood Elementary School gym and attracts a young, casually dressed crowd.
Yet this 9-year-old congregation is reaching deep into the ancient treasures of the Bible to find inspiration for its music, sermons and private devotions.
