This past January, music teacher Jon Seligman published an article about using music to help his school grieve the loss of a beloved teacher. Josh spoke with Jon about this experience and asked if he found Jesus' words to be true: 'Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted.'

The conversation includes a recording of the school choir singing the song 'Saturn' by Sleeping at Last.

Jon Seligman is an elementary school music teacher in Chula Vista, California. He holds a Bachelors in Music Composition and an MA in Teaching from Point Loma Nazarene University, California.

Josh Seligman is editor of Foreshadow.

I think this music teacher really loves his students and he makes for them a lot. It's a very nice and interesting interview. Not easy to talk about such heavy things, but, amazingly, a lot of people can listen to this story.
