Stop procrastinating! The Alathea concert is less than a week away, and there are only a few seats left.I'm looking forward to an evening of music but also of stories. Mandee told me one story, about the song, "Hurricane," when I recently interviewed her for The World and Everything in It:
Where can I go from your spirit? Where can I flee from your presence? If I make my bed in the depths, you're there. If I ascend to heaven, you're there. And so, in writing that song, I was thinking about that Psalm and like, we can't go anywhere from God's Spirit. Like, no matter where we wander, God's Spirit will hunt us down. And sometimes God's Spirit finds us with the fury of a hurricane. And sometimes God's Spirit is as gentle as a dove, like how God's Spirit descended on Jesus. But either way, God's Spirit hunts us down.
All the songs are rich with just those kinds of insights--some funny, some poignant.
Reserve your seat now. Right here. See you Thursday.
