In this episode we chart a fresh and deep course for worship (on a Sunday) in post-Christian communities: worship in polyrhythms. There is so much potential for fresh, deep, and biblical creativity in corporate worship. Yet worship leaders often lack a rich understanding of what they are doing. Our guest is professional percussionist Jillana Nickel. Jillana and I play Cuban music, and she teaches me to play the cowbell.

The artistic gift of intuitive discernment, of expressing reality with clarity and soul, relates to the Christian gospel. Mark explores a woven kinship between artists and Christ followers while playing the grand piano.
