from Be the Bridge Podcast with Latasha Morrison · host Be the Bridge
Music has the power to transform and transcend; it can build bridges and recognize intersections. Tongan American creative artist, Aisea Taimani’s honest music does just that. Listen in as he discusses glocal worship with Be the Bridge founder and podcast host, Latasha Morrison. They dive into the value of different worship styles and the necessity of experiencing them. This conversation is a reminder of the intentionally diverse creation of God and the amazing beauty found in the church. Glocal worship is an invitation to celebrate and to lament, to hope and to empathize as we work to bring God’s Kingdom to earth as it is in heaven. Host & Executive Producer - Latasha Morrison Senior Producer - Lauren C. Brown Producer, Editor, & Music - Travon Potts Transcriber - Sarah Connatser Quotes: “We've always heard local and global. But I think this term [glocal] was just an opportunity to really imagine how we look at the world, especially as a people of faith, recognizing that in order to reach people, you no longer have to travel out of your country.” -Aisea Taimani “Learning the songs from different cultures and different languages has really actually deepened my theology and given me tools to move towards curiosity rather than judgments whenever I experience something that's different, especially in church.” -Aisea Taimani “I promise you that when you hear my people sing with all of their heart, they have something to teach the rest of the world about who God is.” -Aisea Taimani Links: Ad for Epic Will: EpicWill.com [use promo code BTB20 for 20% off] Ad for Charity Water: CharityWater.org/Bridge Aisea Taimani: instagram.com/aiseataimani/ facebook.com/weareminorislands minorislands.bandcamp.com/ youtube.com/channel/UCV5Nrik1Yz-rMj6RILmaD5w Aisea Taimani + Minor Island’s song Take A Stand: youtube.com/watch?v=cYGPkcUTwJA Sandra Van Opstal’s book The Next Worship: sandravanopstal.com/the-next-worship/ Be the Bridge: BeTheBridge.com facebook.com/beabridgebuilder/ instagram.com/bethebridge/ twitter.com/BAbridgebuilder Latasha Morrison: latashamorrison.com/ facebook.com/LatashaMMorrison instagram.com/latashamorrison/ twitter.com/LatashaMorrison
