He was listening to "There Was Jesus" and nodding, saying, "There she is.", and then we put on For King and Country's song "God Only Knows". It started playing and he said "Hey, I know this song! We've done this song, and then his eyes got really wide when he heard Dolly's voice and he said "I didn't know she sang this!" I said, "There's at least one more you have to hear. It's one of my dad's favorite songs. I'm going to turn it up so you can hear the words," and I had him look up "He's Alive". We do lots of music education on road trips :). We also picked out several songs for church on Sunday, but I love that they love music and love to hear new things and there are no limits. So, for your listening pleasure, I'm going to share those three songs :).

Kids and Music
I went to pick up the kids from camp the other day, and on the way home we were talking about some of the songs they sang at camp, which morphed into some of their favorite songs. One of the boys was trying to remember who sings the song "There Was Jesus", so I told him it was Zach Williams and Dolly Parton. The other boy looked at me funny and remarked "I didn't know Dolly Parton sang any Christian songs." I told him that yes, she had quite a few, and had him look them up on my Spotify and add them to the queue so we could listen to them.
He was listening to "There Was Jesus" and nodding, saying, "There she is.", and then we put on For King and Country's song "God Only Knows". It started playing and he said "Hey, I know this song! We've done this song, and then his eyes got really wide when he heard Dolly's voice and he said "I didn't know she sang this!" I said, "There's at least one more you have to hear. It's one of my dad's favorite songs. I'm going to turn it up so you can hear the words," and I had him look up "He's Alive". We do lots of music education on road trips :).
