Mash-Up of the Old and the New -- December 21, 2012

Have you ever watched the TV show "Glee"?

It's one of my guilty pleasures because of the music. Being 41 years old, I am definitely outside of the target market for popular music.  I use "Glee" as my secret weapon.  If a song is worth listening to, "Glee" will do a cover of it.  That way I can keep current on what is "hip" (is that word still used?).

One really neat thing about the songs on "Glee" is their "mash-ups".  A "mash-up" combines two songs into one.  It may switch verses and choruses back and forth or it might use one to respond to the other.

Our lesson this week is going to be a "mash-up".  How you might ask?

We'll go back and forth between the the exodus of the Jewish people from Egypt with Jesus coming to earth.  How well will that work?  You'll have to join us at 9:50 a.m. Sunday morning to see.

Just so you'll know what Bible passages we'll use on the Old Testament side, click here for Exodus 6:2-9, Exodus 12:5-13, and Exodus 14:10-14.

We'll see if it turns out to be beautiful music or a clashing gong.  You might want to bring earplugs.

Finish Friday strong.  Enjoy Saturday with your family.  See you Sunday!

Loyally yours,

Darren Bayne
