She writes: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Inspired particularly by the creative imagery of the old, country church, the music I selected for this month sought to capture two themes: nostalgia and community building. There is a melancholy to nostalgia and community building has its challenges so some of the songs reflect that. The themes of the song \u201cCreature\u201d permeates this collection, mostly due to it being a chronic and comfortable listen for me that validates and celebrates struggle in a stark and laid- bare honesty (YouTube comments sometimes run amok but reading through those for that song, was uplifting nonetheless). Likewise, many of these songs, especially the hymns, act as a sort of comfort listen and a homecoming of some sort for me. The duality of emotions interwoven in the articles of both melancholy and hope in community building and remembrance is something I hoped to accomplish with this playlist, and I hope we continue to celebrate the \u201cbeauty of discovering\u201d Half Alive sings about and the blessing that come with striving together to live into God\u2019s blessed community. Also, I know Encanto is a wonderful, but probably overplayed, masterpiece, especially in homes with kids but what better example do we have of Jesus in the Neighborhood (or family) than that ending piece?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What music would you add?
