Text: Galatians 3. Hymn: 609, Jesus Sinners Doth Receive.

Time Out, Episode 19

Text: Colossians 2. Hymn: 555, Salvation Unto Us Has Come.

Sound bite: Steely Dan, “Time Out of Mind”.

This is one of my favorite hymns. I confess I enjoyed enough while Bruce was playing that I failed to consider whether I could sing it as fast as he played it.

Time Out, Episode 18

Dan — Tue, 16 Jun 2009 16:37:11 +0000

Text: Hebrews 10. Hymn: 607, From Depths of Woe I Cry To Thee.

Organist: Bruce Ahlich, Trinity Lutheran Church, Traverse City, MI.

I have never heard 607 sung in Divine Service. I think the title scares people. The five stanzas are a cool framing of Law and Gospel, the first two being Law and the last three Gospel. Walther would be pleased.

Previously, when someone asked me if it was OK to deliberately sin because it was all going to be forgiven anyway, I used to use Romans 6:1-4 for an answer. Hebrews 10:26-34 hits the point harder, including a consequence.

Sound bite is from New York City Councilman David Yassky, at a rally protesting a developer seeking land through eminent domain so he can build a basketball arena and high-rise buildings.

Organist: Bruce Ahlich, Trinity Lutheran Church, Traverse City, MI.

Pr. Craig Donofrio of The God Whisperers got me started on the way to make the Time Out podcast, and this is one of his favorite hymns.

Time Out, Episode 14

Dan — Wed, 20 May 2009 23:32:38 +0000

Text: Acts 13:15-43. Hymn: 508, “The Day Is Surely Drawing Near”.

Organist: Bruce Ahlich, Trinity Lutheran Church, Traverse City, MI.

I had the opportunity to record nine hymns Saturday afternoon with Trinity’s organist, Bruce Ahlich. Bruce also played some preludes, but if you want to hear that copyrighted material you’ll have to find me in person.
