Worship Leader Wednesday: The Totally Off-track Edition

30, Apr 2008

Hey everyone. I'm going to have to apologize, but due to the incredibly slammed week I had last week, I don't have part 2 of Jamey's interview in the can yet. We've chatted via email, and plan to have the second half up next week, so again, I apologize for the delay.
In order to not [...]

Blogger Small Group: James 1

29, Apr 2008

Here's my first entry for a new effort we're calling the Blogger Small Group. The general idea is that a group of blogger have decided to form our own online small group and study the Scripture together. Once a week, Kyle over at Running Like a Vagabond releases a Bible passage on Wednesday, and throughout [...]

Worship Confessional: April 27, 2008

28, Apr 2008

This will be a strange confessional, in that I don't have a lot of details for you. This was an extrememly busy week between organizing and hosting a worship retreat and organizing a ministry fair.
Rehearsal and sound check both went very well. We worked on some further refinement of our overall sound, and were pleased [...]

The Monday Minute: Your Weekend

28, Apr 2008

I had a whirlwind of a weekend. You know how you can schedule things weeks to months in advance, not realizing there will be a convergence? That's exactly what happened to me. Months ago I scheduled our yearly music retreat, and had to take this last weekend because of conference space availability. A few weeks [...]

My Bible Journey: Week of April 20, 2008

26, Apr 2008

Joshua 21 = I think sometimes we get the perception that ALL Levites were priests, but this is simply not true. It seems the vast majority of the Levites were people who lived "normal" lives, except their entire existence—their occupation you might say—was to benefit the direct work of God. While the other tribes [...]

Rewrite of a Famous Praise Song

25, Apr 2008

My son Jaden is learning to play I Could Sing of Your Love Forever on the guitar and Joely (my 5 year old) decided to hang out in Jaden’s room while he practiced.
And Joely sang along while Jaden played…
“Over the mountains and the sea
It’s time for Ovaltine for me…”

What's your concert going style?

24, Apr 2008

I was driving down the highway this morning, singing Crowder's The Glory of It All at the top of my lungs, when I recalled a couple of similar yet disparate occasions in my past.
The first event was just a few months ago when my wife and I went to the House of Blues to see [...]

Help me win a date with my wife

23, Apr 2008

No, my wife's not having a contest to make me earn the right to have dinner with her, we've been entered in a blog contest.

My wife recently entered us in an online contest called Love GenX Style hosted by Tricia Goyer, one of the (homeschooling) Christian authors that she likes to read. The winner of [...]

Worship Leader Wednesday #12

23, Apr 2008

This week's interview features the only person interviewed so far that I've actually met. Jamey and I met in college, and spent our first year in college as floor mates. Jamey was a music major like myself, so we had many, many classes together. I have not had any contact with Jamey since graduation until [...]

iLife: Submission

22, Apr 2008

Sorry for not posting this last week. With that head/chest thing I (still) had going on, I just didn't feel up to typing out anything of substance. So, here's last week iLife installment, and I'll do another later this week.
One of the most avoided and misunderstood disciplines in Scripture is that of Submission. Let's quickly [...]
