Worship Through Music

Obviously music in a church context is used to glorify God, to worship Our Heavenly Father. But what better medium to use when communicating with the Creator of All Things? The music is different every time. So is my expression. I feel grateful and positive, strong and defiant, weak and helpless, sad and remorseful. There is room in music to be honest with my God and let down the guard that I’ve constructed to hide my heart from all the pain in this world. And there is room for God to come to meet me and talk to me as if there were no one else around...

Worship Through Music

Maybe it was playing the first time you fell in love, the first time you saw Eve in all her glorious beauty (or Adam riding to the rescue in his shining armour). Maybe it captures the nostalgia of your youth when you were invincible, eternally young and carefree. Even it might remind you of a tragic event in your life, a moment that shaped you irrevocably and although it brings back all those dark feelings and tears there is somehow a peace and a healing in the process. This doesn’t sound very religious does it? God gave man the gift of music for a specific purpose I’m sure.

Worship Through Music

Music has a very unique significance throughout the world in that it permeates every single nation and culture. I’ve yet to find a society where music does not exist in some form or other. It clearly has the power to draw communities together but also has a transcendental quality that reaches outside of the normal and the mundane. If you’re not sure what I’m talking about just think about ‘that special song’.

My name is Richie and I often lead the music side of things for RPC. I am lucky because my job is to play the guitar and sing loudly both of which I really enjoy doing.
