WMC-0113 – How to handle crisis and how they affect your services
Music comes natural to a lot of us, however public speaking can be a very different thing. It’s one thing to get up and sing a song, sit at the piano or strum a guitar, but for some of us speaking can be a challenge. For some, it’s saying too much, for others it’s not saying enough.

Worship Prescriptions
What are the few things we are prescribed when it comes to worship? I know there are a lot of things we think we are supposed to do, but most of them aren’t actual prescriptions.

Most of what we are wrapped up in, are things that aren’t prescribed. And...

I’ve been a fan of Perry Noble and what they’re doing down there at New Spring for quite some time.
