Join us in our latest episode of the Roots Podcast where we sit down with Gillian Warson, a professional musician and part of the team of contributors who offer song suggestions for Roots' subscribers each week. We delve into the enduring relevance of hymns in worship, their historical and contemporary contexts. We discuss the thought process behind hymn selection, highlighting the relevance and power these age-old tunes continue to possess in a changing musical landscape.
Gillian champions the hymn's ability to embody and reflect societal changes, maintaining their adaptability and resilience over centuries. She also highlights the crucial role they play in making worship inclusive for children. Hear her address the misconception that children are more drawn to 'fast' or 'loud' songs and how incorporating hymns adds richness to their musical diet.
As Gillian shares her journey from a childhood interest in hymns to her current role promoting hymn-writing, we get an insight into the balance between honouring tradition, fostering inclusivity, and embracing change. We discuss the challenges of introducing new hymns into a church's musical repertoire and conclude on the note of unity in worship, as we strive to worship God through music.
