“…rock music serves for its listeners as a kind of personal sound track, enlivening tedious activities with excitement, much the way that film and television scores enliven boring passages with exciting music. Time that could be spent thinking is thus spent listening and daydreaming.”

Only I love the fact that music enables me to daydream and create my own personal soundtrack to life. I think its extremism to focus on filling all our silences with God.

Thank you for that example. It is truly inspiring! And he is soooo dreamy. I am going to go crack the back door now.

Josh

Love is in the house and the house is packed
So much so I left the back door cracked
Mama always said it’s a matter of fact
That when love is in the house, the house is packed
Love is in the house and the house is packed
So much so I left the back door cracked
Daddy always said that I wish I was black
And when love is in the house, the house is packed

And the great things about this song is that if you hear it on Christian radio, you will hear this refrain over and over and over again. That is helpful, because it enables you to meditate on the profound truth throughout the day that “when love is in the house, the house is packed”–the truth of which has been revolutionary in my life.
