So let's get right on with my subject for this issue . . . I celebrate that this time in history is an exciting one. One in which I'm seeing a resurgence of rhythm and movement experiences as part of worship. Rhythm is the stuff of which we are made. Certainly we feel and hear evidence of that in the constant of our own heartbeat, our breathing, the cycles and rhythms of our bodies.
Vibrations are present in everything.
It is vibration that enables our sensory experiences, like the sound and light waves that travel to and from us. The rhythm of our living helps us know when to sleep and get up and when to eat. The rhythm of creation reminds us of the passing of seasons, months, and days. There is even a rhythm to our coming together . . . We find this rhythm compelling, and we are drawn to gather in family, with friends and in worship.
