Episode 3 - Music and Writing with Bodies, Faith, & Culture
Description
It's always more than just a song, than just singing: it's a language, a communication style, a tool of liberation and a transformational symbol of unity. Chicagoland author Madison Chastain highlights two key ways that music has shown up in her life: in interdenominational relationships and as an embodied experience for bodies of all abilities. Accessibility is a key ingredient of good liturgical practice, ensuring the participation of the whole community. Madison's wisdom centers around this question: how can bearing witness to these diverse ways of interacting with and encountering the divine--through music!--is ministry. If a person with a disability is displaying a new way of engaging with Jesus, this is an opportunity to follow their lead, a way to see a fuller picture of Image and Likeness of our Creator.
