Granted, the people we might have watched on TV, Sunday night, March 7th, weren’t volunteers, there’s a lesson we can learn – Appreciation.
You don’t have to watch any awards show for long to recognize two things: first, people like being appreciated, second people need an opportunity to thank people who have helped them succeed.
When working [...]

You may have seen my post yesterday about echoes, and in that post I mentioned that those two articles were written by Evan Kepner of No Treble. Well, I had to do a separate post about this site, because it’s worth your time. It would be a great resource to pass on to the bass [...]

There’s a good chance, that if you’ve been involved in music much for the last few years, you’ve probably gotten some sort of catalog from Disc Makers. I know I’ve gotten a ton of them, and they’re always fun to look at. While they do want to sell you on their services, the also do [...]

More and more worship leaders I know are getting into recording. Even if it’s just for recording practice cd’s or rough arrangements, or rough ideas of new songs, home/office recording is growing hugely. And while we can say that we just want to rough out an idea for a song, the perectionist in us still [...]

This weekend was the first weekend or preparing for Easter. We taught Jeremy Riddle’s song, “Christ is Risen” today. We also had a great weekend for music. I was able to step aside from most of the leading this weekend and mostly focus on the band and playing. It was actually quite enjoyable!
Here was our set this weekend:
Brian was a roommate of mine in college, and he also played in a group with Kevin for a while. We did this song in choir back in the day, and it just happen to fit perfectly with the sermon this weekend, so we did it.

This weekend we had the privilege of having some of the youth band play with us. It was really cool on a couple of levels. First, it’s always cool to to have the youth playing with us so the congregation could experience and get to know what the youth do on a weekly basis. It was also cool because our Youth Worship Intern was playing with us. Kyle played with me at my last church, and it was cool to get to lead worship with him again.

Great weekend! Just loved it! So did our congregation! We had the choir join us this week for a couple of worship tunes and then the choir sang “Total Praise.” It’s an oldie, but not to our church. Since we’ve never had a choir around here, there are a lot of “classics” that our church has never heard, and that’s one of them.
We also had a smaller band this week, on purpose. It’s a group I’m working on taking in a different direction than our other groups. I’m wanting it to be a piano driven group with a jazz &/or Gospel feel to it. It’s a new venture for us, but I’m excited about it. If you have any experience with this and you would like to offer me some pointers, that would be awesome, I could use the help!
Here was our Set:
It was great to have the choir join us, the band was fun. Just an overall great weekend! For more weekend reviews, check out Sunday Setlists on The Worship Community.
