Scientists aren't certain about why we shed tears when we are emotional, but we can look to responses that others have when they see someone's tears as a possible reason why we evolved to have them. Strong emotions, tears, and vulnerability are important parts of singing.
In this episode we begin to look at the pros and cons of vulnerability for the singer/performer and for the audience. Lisa advises us, preach from your scars, not from your wounds.
Lisa Horst Clark is the Lead Pastor at Bellevue First Congregational Church, Bellevue, WA
