I've learned that even the word 'jubilee' used in connection with the Reformation can give rise to discussions.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Reformation names the disunity in which we currently stand. We who remain in the Protestant tradition want to say that Reformation was a success.
I'd like to write a history, maybe of the Reformation.
I must begin by telling you that I do not like to preach on Reformation Sunday. Actually, I have to put it more strongly than that. I do not like Reformation Sunday, period.
For me, 'revolution' simply means radical change.
A revolution is interesting insofar as it avoids like the plague the plague it promised to heal.
I like to say 'Reign' is the '24' of the pre-Renaissance. I think we're going to take a lot of liberties with history, as well as extend it over a longer period of time.
It is an absolutely unique success of the church community to have introduced such an epoch-making change, in just a few years, without having a serious division.
And revolutions always mean the breakdown of old authority.
Reformation ends not in contemplation, but in action.
The sense of jubilee for music and what we're making is always genuine.
