Jack begins this episode by playing his new song “When Death Had Its Heyday (Where O Death Is Your Sting).” Then we talk about music and prayer for a bit, before moving onto a discussion about the sting of death. We consider questions like: Is death natural? How are we to understand the ‘sting’ of death? What is resurrection? How did Jesus view death? What does all this have to do with music? We don’t pretend to have the answers, so please let us know your thoughts, too!
The song used throughout this episode is “Root Rill” by Jack Baumgartner; and you can listen to the entire song here:
