Hitting close to home

This post came across my screen this morning:
We've been listening to a lot of St. Olaf Choir lately at our house, as mentioned in a previous post. Lyd calls it "church music," as in, "Momma, can we listen to church music?"
It's her new favorite CD, and with the way I've been feeling these past days, mine too. There's some solid Christian hymns on that CD, and the choir sings all the verses in fantastic arrangements. One of the hymns that has strongly affected me these past anxious days has been "The Church's One Foundation." The themes of schisms not being able to tear the church apart, the saints in heaven crying, "How long?", and the picture painted of heaven and "the church at rest," are all hitting closer to home for me than ever before.
Full story here.
