The Sewing Machine in Storage
When my mom died, I was left with the quiet work of going through her house—drawer by drawer, box by box, the physical evidence of a life lived for other people. I don’t know what I expected to keep. But I know what I grabbed quickly. Her electric sewing machine. It’s still in its box.…

The Art of a Balanced Hymn Set
When a song leader steps up on Sabbath morning, something sacred begins. Long before the sermon is preached, long before Scripture is opened, the congregation is already being formed — by the hymns chosen, the atmosphere set, and the direction given through music. This is why hymn selection is not a quick task or a…

Starting the Year With Hope-Filled Hymns
A new year often feels like a blank page. Church boards plan evangelistic series. Ministries set fresh goals. Families quietly resolve to walk more closely with God.

Should Adventists Sing Christmas Hymns?
Seventh-day Adventists don’t treat December 25 as a holy day. While Scripture doesn’t give an exact date for Christ’s birth, many have noted that Luke’s detail—shepherds “living out in the fields” at night (Luke 2:8)—makes a mid-winter birth less likely, since Bethlehem is typically cool and rainy in December and occasional snow can happen. However, what the…

Hymns for Hospital Visits: 21 Comforting Hymns to Sing When Someone Is Sick
When someone you love is sick, you don’t always have “the right words.” But God has given His church something better than perfect speeches: songs that carry faith when our voices feel small. Jesus Himself ties this kind of ministry directly to discipleship: “I was sick, and ye visited me” (Matthew 25:36). And in Adventist life, we’ve long…

Wedding Hymns Made Simple: 37 Congregational Favorites That Are Easy to Sing
A Christian wedding isn’t only a celebration—it’s a covenant service. Before the photos, before the reception, the church gathers to witness something sacred: two lives being joined under God’s blessing. Scripture frames marriage in worship language: “a man… shall… cleave… and they shall be one flesh” (GENESIS 2:24), and the strength of a home is deepest when…

20 Best Funeral Hymns for Comfort and Hope (Plus Setlists That Flow)
Funeral worship is one of the few moments where people arrive at church with nothing to prove. Grief levels the room. Strong believers and skeptics sit side by side. Some can sing; others can barely breathe. And in that fragile space, hymns become more than “music”—they become borrowed words. For Seventh-day Adventists, we also carry a gentle…

Do not detain me, for I am going
To where the fountains are ever flowing.
