This weekend the Church put on a concert of their newest album “Trust in the Lord.” The album includes music both appropriate for worship and celebration (or singing out loud in the car with your kids). I’d especially recommend Yahosh Bonner’s “Dust.” You can catch his introduction at the 12:12 mark in the video below, the song starts at 13:22. The album supplements this year’s youth theme “Trust in the Lord.” The album and concert are starting to become a tradition to look forward to. Of course, they also follow the long tradition of celebratory and worship music in the Old and New Testament churches.
