Seedbed

Dr. Sterling Allen currently serves as the Director of Music and Worship Arts at Good Shepherd Global Methodist Church in Cypress, Texas. He holds multiple degrees in music, including Doctor of Worship in liturgics and hymnology from the Webber Institute in Florida. He has sung as an operatic baritone internationally and is a recognized Charles Wesley Scholar specializing in soteriological-lyrical theology. We’re talking to him today about a his latest publication, a hymnal of Charles Wesley hymns. I didn’t know how much I don't know about Wesley’s hymns, nor did I realize how much I want to know … but I do! So let’s talk about hymnody and theology and eschatology and all that gets packed into a song that stands the test of time.
