Jazz Vespers at Calvin College provided a worship service that combined art, music, and prayer to offer a creative and contemporary service for worship. These services ended in an evening Psalm that was offered responsively.
A part of Calvin College's worship history was a weekly service known as Jazz Vespers: students gathered to walk through an ancient prayer service in a contemporary, creative, informal, improvisational, and multi-sensory way. A bold Kuyperian experiment, it combined music, poetry, art, scripture, prayer, and live jazz. A key piece of the time was the evening Psalm—a song of faith or doubt, praise or lament (or all of the above)—offered responsively: singing, speaking, singing, speaking.
