Advent Music, Memory, and Thankfulness

Posted on January 18, 2018 by AJ • 1 Comment

(I may expand this in the future, but probably not). Arguably one of the most famous sections of his “Well-Tempered Clavier”, I’m listening to Bach’s “BWV 847: Fugue in C minor” today, this day of Thanksgiving. You could say it was made a hairline more well-known because of Rich Mullins’ use of it as an intro … Continue reading →

“secura mens quasi iuge convivium est” — The secure mind is like a perpetual feast! “6 Now these things, brethren, I have figuratively transferred to myself and Apollos for your sakes, that you may learn in us not to think beyond what is written, that none of you may be puffed up on behalf of one against … Continue reading →
