Episode 93: Salvation Meeting (50) - The Light of the World
"Going to the Army!" - Marc Harry's PodcastShow Notes
The theme for the meeting tonight proclaims Jesus as 'The Light of the World'.
At this time of Advent I am always made acutely aware of the aptness of Joy Webb';s beautiful song 'Come Into Our World'. Yes, of course it is really HIS world but, as the song alludes 'men have forgotten Him and how to pray'.
Certainly, if EVER this dark world needed a light it is NOW...if ever it needed JESUS - it needs Him now.
We often think this is the job of professional preachers, church leaders and the very keenest and bravest of our fellow Christians - but that is not so: if WE do not take Jesus into this world ourselves then there is no-one else TO do it!
Sit back and enjoy an hour of real Salvation Army worship and music - some great songs and music from the International Staff Band and Songsters, The German Staff Band, The Southern Chorus, The Sunbury Junior Singers, The Three Sopranos, Richard Phillips and the cast of Jesus Folk and a very real challenge for us all
God bless you all!

Had things gone to plan: then today – Tuesday 15th April 2025 I would have been preparing myself for one of my favourite events of the year.
To mark the TENTH anniversary of the very first GttA podcast in July 2013 this is the first of a very special 4-part series of podcasts featuring music from each decade of the Army's existence right up to the present day.
'The Salvation Meeting' makes its return this Sunday after my summer break.
For the last meeting prepared before I take my summer break (I'll be back in September!) I found my inspiration after seeing a question asked in a Salvation Army forum online: What is a Salvation Meeting?
