I really wish those of you who read this blog outside of Denver could have been present for this weeks session of Discover the Gospel in Jazz.

Henry Butler was amazing!  His musical ability, vocals and presence is astonishing. 

For those of you who were present, we spoke about how a jazz-shaped faith is preceded by learning to sing the blues.  That is, "Tragicomic Hope."

Anything thoughts on Henry or the topic?

Over the next few post I’m going to revisit some old posts on the question, "What color is Jesus?"  This will provide a fun case study in jazz theology and set the stage for our final session next week.

Stay in the groove,

robert
