Christians Sing Differently: Things Unseen with Sinclair B. Ferguson

Summary

Christians sing differently than non-Christians because their songs are always directed upwards to God, even when they begin horizontally. This vertical orientation, rooted in living "coram Deo" (in the presence of God), transforms how believers express themselves, moving beyond personal reflection or communal interaction to praise and communion with the divine. Therefore, every song a Christian sings, regardless of its earthly subject, ultimately elevates to God, reflecting His goodness and grace.
