		<link>http://www.singforjoy.org</link>
		<description>Sing For Joy expresses, through sacred choral music and thoughtful commentary, the biblical themes that are the basis of Christian worship for each week in the church year. This half-hour program prepares listeners for worship, reinforces their worship experience and, for many listeners, is their primary form of worship during the week. The musical performances "do the talking," while the concise commentary illustrates the meaning of the texts.</description>
