## Resource

Sponsor: Truth’s Table Book Episode Description: Why did God give us music? Have you ever thought about this question? What’s the purpose of music? Why does it matter, and what does theology have to do with music? Join Christina and Ekemini at the table as they converse about these questions via Stevie Wonder’s classic and legendary song, “As.” They discuss the deep theological content of As and talk about the other questions people often ask these days: “Is R&B music dead?” If not, what’s missing from it? Pull up a chair and have a seat at the table with us! Article referenced in this episode: Where did the love go?
