Songs for the Journey - Maundy Thursday

Nine years ago, I did a blog series through Lent called "Songs for the Journey." A few years earlier, my wife's seminary roommate had given her a mix-CD labeled "Happy Advent." It started this tickle in my brain - what would a Lenten mix sound like?

Then about 9 years ago while worship planning, I came across a list of themes for the different weeks of Lent. As I read through them songs started popping into my head that for me spoke to those themes and a series was born.

As I continue this new blog, I draw on the liturgical and lectionary themes each week and consider songs, movies, TV shows, and other contemporary resources to bring out the themes I encounter. I had not intended to necessarily recreate that original blog series, but sometimes my mind wanders back to revisit those themes.
