a conversation between man and god
Transcript
00:00Did you know Johann Sebastian Bach lost his little daughter and then three sons and then his wife?
00:04Then he remarried and then he and his second wife Anna Magdalena lost four more daughters and three
00:10sons. Eleven beloved children. Many researchers have wondered how Bach managed to handle these
00:15losses. How did he not stop breathing? How did his heart not stop? And most importantly, how could he
00:21continue to write music? Cantati, cello suites, masses, concerts, the most beautiful music the
00:27world has heard. Do you know how he did it? At the end of his music he always wrote soli deo gloria,
00:34glory to God alone and in the beginning Lord help. Therefore you can pray during Bach's music
00:39because the music itself is prayer. You could then consider Bach's music a conversation between man
00:44and God. How do you deal with pain? Worship is the best solace.
