Great and Terrible God
The biblical phrase, “The Fear of God,” has always been a tough concept for people to understand.
It seems paradoxical or counter-intuitive at first glance.
The Fear of God, however, makes a ton of sense when we bring in the concepts of “awe” and “respect.”
The biggest, most important, most powerful, most awesome thing is always something we regard with awe and respect. I remember losing my words the first time I was around a celebrity. They were normal humans like me, but their position and status had a profound affect on my comfort and ability to act normal. I held them in high esteem.
The centrality of God in the universe is a position that should lead to the centrality of God in our lives. His power, status, significance and magnitude should cause us to be in awe of him. If not, if we take him for granted or treat him as common, something is misfiring about our conception of God, ourselves or the universe.
The Fear of God, therefore, is a great indicator as to how we’re viewing God in our hearts.
This song of Chris Beland’s is quick becoming one of my favorites. He sang it in our house after a college and singles meeting and then again at Antioch. I’ve found few songs with as much theology embedded as this one.
Watch this video, listen to the words and learn about the deep meaning of the phrase “fear of God.”

Missing Church
The problem with traveling is that you miss church
Special Music
Check out this special music from Grace Laxson this last Sunday (our last) at Summit High!!
I’d watch the X-Factor if she was on it :)

Special Music
Dug this original song from Chris Beland yesterday at Antioch. One of the best songs on the tension between the messiness of life and the mystery of God I’ve heard.

Michael Watson
Michael Watson (of Above the Golden State) stopped by this Sunday with one of his friends, Emily Otteson, to lead worship at Antioch.
Here’s one of the coolest renditions of Psalm 23 I’ve heard put to song -

Clown
Here’s a track off of Micah’s upcoming EP he’s releasing at Antioch on June 12th.
Talent.
The Laxson Sisters
Pretty bummed I missed this!!
Grace Laxson had her two older sisters in town for the weekend – both of whom sing like angels – and they did an a cappella rendition of Down to the River to Pray at Antioch.
Here it is below:

Micah’s CD
Micah Bournes has been working on an album (mostly rap) that should be out in the next couple of weeks.
We’re doing a CD Release Party for him at Antioch on June 12.
Pretty fun to see this develop all the way from Micah’s internship two summers ago to the last year with his involvement with High School and the Arts at Antioch.
My prediction? Get your time in with Micah while you can – his career is about to go BIG!!
The Heroes of Telemark
Check out this music video from Justin Lavik and Grace Laxson’s band, The Heroes of Telemark, of Grace’s song “Bright Brassy Moon.”
