Quoting Brian McLaren引用布赖恩麦克拉伦

Written by Mark Van Steenwyk : August 31, 2004写的马克范steenwyk : 2004年8月31日

I just read something from Brian McLaren on我刚才读的东西从布赖恩麦克拉伦对 Leadership Journal领导日报 . In the article, Mr. McLaren writes:在文章中,麦克拉伦先生写道:

“…We praise God for holding us close, for keeping us secure, for making us feel loved and blessed and forgiven and warm and cozy in our electric blanket of eternal security (with a warm comforter of national security thrown in too). “ … …我们赞美上帝为我们举行的密切,保持我们的安全,使我们感受到爱和祝福和原谅和温暖和舒适,在我们的电毯的永恒的安全性(与温暖慰藉的国家安全抛在太) 。 We congratulate God on how well God is meeting our needs.我们祝贺上帝就如何以及上帝是满足我们的需要。 When we say, “You’re such a good God,” it sometimes sounds like comforting words spoken to a pet.”当我们说, “您这么好的神” ,有时听起来像是安慰的话到宠物“ 。

I’m not the sort of person who wants to be pegged as a Brian-McLaren-quoter.我不是那种人,谁愿意挂作为一个布赖恩-迈凯轮-竞标者。 Nor do I want to be accused of being the sort of person who defines leadership through Leadership Journal.我也不希望成为被指控的那种人,谁界定的领导,通过领导期刊。 Nevertheless, the article is noteworthy.不过,值得注意的是,文章。

In it, Mr. McLaren points out something that many have been pointing out for years: modern worship music is too individualist and self-centered.在它先生,麦克拉伦指出,这是许多已指出,为年:现代崇拜的音乐是太个人主义和自我为中心。 The content isn’t exactly revolutionary, but the fact that it is in the pages of Leadership Journal is.内容是不完全的革命,但事实上,这是在该页面的领导期刊。

Our church plant,我们教会的植物, Missio Dei使命dei is starting its larger gathering this week, and because of this, we’ve had to wrestle particularly with the question of “How will we handle music?” We all want something creative, collaborative, and rich.是开始,更大的聚会在这周,正因为如此,我们已收到了以角力,特别是与问题, “我们将如何处理的音乐吗? ”我们都希望有所创新,协作,和丰富的。 We also want it to be theologically tight.我们也希望它成为theologically紧张。 Our goal is to have music hit on themes that are raised in Scripture.我们的目标是有音乐触及的主题,提出了在经文。 The funny thing is, it is incredibly difficult to find a good supply of music that fits.有趣的是,这是令人难以置信的,很难找到一个好的供应的音乐适合。 We want to write some of our own stuff–but the fact that existing stuff is so dang anemic and relatively un-diverse in terms of style and content is just plain sad.我们想写一些我们自己的东西-但事实上,现有的东西,是使党贫血和相对联合国多样的条款,风格和内容,只是平原一件悲伤的事情。
