A dance you won’t soon forget

 
What excuse do you use for not being all you were created to be?

Just go here…trust me.

A date with my wife

Tonight is something I have been looking forward to for quite sometime now. My wife and I do things together, of course…even “date” things on a regular basis. BUt I rarely get a chance to do one of those “impressive,” all-inclusive, dinner-and-a-show, trying-to-leave-an-impression dates. You know what I mean; those dates before you were married, [...]

Communicate positive…not negative

Blogging is great…more-so for the connections you make than the contributions you make (speaking of me of course). I’ve been reading several blogs a day. Most of them from fellow worship leaders. One in particular says something that’s been on my mind a lot recently and I wanted you to read it. I think it [...]

Me Worship

This video is really funny, but sadly too true. How can we as worship leaders lead our congregation away from me-ism? Please post any comments or ideas you have tried in your church that seem to have helped fight the rampant me-ism.

Follow Me – part 3 of 3

Part 1 and Part 2 have taught us that we each have a specific God-designed role…a role that no one but us can fulfill. If we followed Jesus like we believed it was our one, eternal, irreplaceable role, how would it affect us? How would we approach life? How would we approach our role on [...]

Follow Me – part 2 of 3

Yesterday, I spoke of Fantasy Football and how each player performed their role so that the team could shine. In the same way, we, as the church, should work as a team to ensure that Jesus shines like he should. Today, I’ll expound upon some of those ideas as they relate to our teamwork as [...]

Follow Me – part 1 of 3

Fantasy Football is fun way to experience an otherwise unenjoyable sport…pro football. I say unenjoyable because, compared to college football, its just a job, like any other job and that becomes way too apparent way too often. College football is filled with pride for your school, enthusiasm, rivalry…and of course marching band, which is really [...]

New Life

I talked a few days ago about a Biblical Worldview…remember that? My Bible study this morning expounded upon those thoughts a little bit. I’ve been using, for the first time, a bible study help written by John MacArthur (2 Corinthians). He has many more out there and I was actually looking to buy the James study, [...]

Why me? Why not me?

In a few past church positions, music and worship was only “part” of my title. I’ve also had youth/student ministries under my leadership too. I saw one church once looking for a Minister of Music, youth, and education…don’t know how anyone can do that when all three are full time jobs – no matter the size [...]
