Episode 22 – Despair
In this 10-minute podcast, Tom Mohr reflects on our most desperate moments– when we have fallen into despair. He shares the story of Rich Mullins, the Christian musician who created some of his greatest songs while in the grip of despair. He also shares the story of the musicians on the Titanic, who picked up their instruments and played “Nearer My God to Thee” for the panicked passengers instead of running for the lifeboats.
Song Title:
Nearer My God to Thee
Song Summary:
This is the song performed by the string quartet on the Titanic as the ship was sinking. The musicians could have run for the lifeboats, but they stayed, played and gave comfort. It is a beautiful song, a reminder that even in the depths of total despair, God is near. He will get us through. Robert Berry joins Tom Mohr with the instrumentals.
