Listen "Freedom Lessons"
Episode Synopsis
We are interviewing Blake Flattley and Steve Zank to talk about the new "Freedom Lessons" album that they did with Flame. They talked about the thought process behind several of the songs, and how they chose various music genres to fit various parts of the small catechism. They talk about how the battle wrap performed by Flame and Loso to show the battle between old Adam and new Adam, the use of folk music to look at the promises of God, and thinking of not just the words to fit the message, but the notes and tempo to fit the message. This is an all star album, with various artists coming together to artistically express the wrestling and honest questions encountered in Luther's Small Catechism. This project is framing the catechism, not as something that needs to be mastered, but something that trains people to understand their Christian freedom.
