Worship Wednesday #7

29, Apr 2009

No guest contribution today, mostly for the reasons stated yesterday. However, I received a very gracious comment from Joel Limpic on my post about his visit to Lifechurch.tv. I had made mention of the fact that The Pilgrim Song was unavailable, but Joel has informed me that the video is now accessible.
I can't explain just [...]

Boy, I'm really off my game lately. No post since last Wednesday, and here I am over a day late with my confessional. To top it off, I'm pretty sure I won't be able to get a Worship Wednesday contribution up for tomorrow. I had jury duty yesterday, and my mind is still VERY foggy.
The [...]

Al Hilgendorf: What Worship Means to Me
This sounds a lot like the essays I wrote in grade school like “What Did You Do This Summer” or “I Will Not Throw Spit Wads At Mike Smothers” … oops, that last one wasn't an essay… anyway, worship has been defined by a whole google of people (you [...]

Ripe because of labor

21, Apr 2009

I started reading The Hole in our Gospel by Richard Stearns today. I'm slated to review the book for Thomas Nelson soon, but I couldn't let this go by.
A fantastic—yet sobering—thought is introduced in chapter one. Jesus talked about the field already ripe for harvest, and that there was simply a need for those willing [...]

I'm really not in the frame of mind to write up a post. I think I feel another blog funk coming on. Either way, I'm gonna make myself do it. So here are a few reflections from Sunday.
First of all, where was everybody? It might have been some of the lowest attendance I've seen in [...]

I found this whle Stumbling. I'm so impressed by not only this guy's talent, but his vision as well. Could you imagine finding ability like this in a church congregation and encouraging them to unleash themsleves to create thing for your church walls? Better yet, unleash them on your walls themselves?

So many people would dismiss [...]

Review: Song Manager

17, Apr 2009

If you want the full story of my impressions of Song Manger, you need to read this post first, then come back here.
So, as with the first part of my interview, let me emphasize that Song Manger is intended for use by smaller scale ministries that don't need some of the bells and whistles offered [...]

Guitarpraise

16, Apr 2009

Found a site today that's been around a while, but is somehow completely new to me.

Guitarpraise is a great resource blog for all of us worship guitarists out there. They mostly focus on lead guitar, but there also quite a bit to be had for bassists and we acoustic players. I really like the "Shape [...]

I care too much…

16, Apr 2009

I care too much…
about whether or not you're reading my blog.
about whether or not you're following me on twitter.
about my blog stats.
about my own opinions.
about whether or not my shirt makes me look fat on Sunday morning.
about whether or not the church thinks I can sing/play well.
about whether or not the church thinks I'm striking [...]

Joel Limpic

16, Apr 2009

Over the weekend, I "attended" church online at Lifechurch.tv. It wasn't my first visit, and it certainly won't be my last. It's no secret to most of us in the church-focused blogging community that Lifechurch is on the cutting edge of leveraging (pushing even) technology to spread the Gospel message.
For their Easter weekend presentation, they [...]
