Book excerpt: ¡Cantemos! Ha sido creado por la pasión del canto congregacional de Keith y Kristyn Getty y ha sido formado a través de viajes y presentaciones al escuchar, discutir, aprender y enseñar a través de todo el mundo. Con la creación de este material ellos tienen cinco objetivos clave: Descubrir por qué cantamos y la abrumadora dicha y el santo privilegio que proviene de cantar. Considerar que cantar impacta nuestras vidas, corazones y mentes. Cultivar una cultura de familia que canta, en nuestra vida familiar diaria. Equipar a nuestras iglesias para cantar con sinceridad al Señor y a los demás en una expresión de unidad. Inspirarnos para ver el canto congregacional como un testigo radical para el mundo. También se han incluido «pistas adicionales» al final, con sugerencias prácticas para usarlas con grupos que están más profundamente relacionados con el canto en la iglesia. El propósito de Dios a través de esta irresistible visión de ver a Su pueblo cantando (personas que alegremente se unen a cantar, hermanos y hermanas alrededor del mundo y alrededor de Su trono) es incluirte. Él quiere que todos nosotros cantemos. Sing! has grown from Keith and Kristyn Getty’s passion for congregational singing; it’s been formed by their traveling and playing and listening and discussing and learning and teaching all over the world. And in writing it, they have five key aims: • to discover why we sing and the overwhelming joy and holy privilege that comes with singing • to consider how singing impacts our hearts and minds and all of our lives • to cultivate a culture of family singing in our daily home life • to equip our churches for wholeheartedly singing to the Lord and one another as an expression of unity • to inspire us to see congregational singing as a radical witness to the world They have also added a few “bonus tracks” at the end with some more practical suggestions for different groups who are more deeply involved with church singing. God intends for this compelling vision of His people singing—a people joyfully joining together in song with brothers and sisters around the world and around His heavenly throne—to include you. He wants you, He wants us, to sing.
