So for Lent we will have a weekly evening service of prayer after dinner. Then we will explore and connect with religious themes in the music of Lady Gaga and Mumford and Sons. I really recommend you read this article from Relevant Magazine. This in some ways articulates my own experience of finding God speaking in secular spaces and the religious experience that can come from many places outside Sunday morning. For me, both U2 concerts I have attended have been more moving and challenging than any worship service and were more 'Reformed' in their liturgy . . .
Here are some more links to read about the spirituality that might be driving the artists we will see and hear in our Lenten journey:
