Let it Shine!

Picture yourself in the giant auditorium at the great First Baptist Church of Hammond, Indiana. The lights go out. A spotlight shines on a young boy at a piano. He is playing with one finger, "This Little Light of Mine".  Then a master pianist joins in.  A soloist starts singing the song. He is holding a candle. The song progresses and scores of Hyles-Anderson College  students come down every aisle toward the platform each with a candle and singing along. What an inspiring time. On the last verse, the young boy joins the soloist singing.   Try to picture this in your mind, a dark auditorium being lit my hundreds of candles held by the students singing "Shine all over Chicagoland..." AWESOME!!! You can listen to the recording of this at www.baptist-city.com, it is our song of the week this week.
