12.30.07

Set List:

Let it Rise
That's Why We Praise Him
To the Ends of the Earth
Grace Flows Down
Go Light Your World
Hero (Ken Medema)
My Time on Earth (Billy Gillman)

Today was one of those red letter days for me. I got to preach today while Jon did a great job leading worship. I love it when Jon leads because he always comes up with just the right song for the message. Today he had 2. He put together a sequence for Hero and led me in. It was really well done. After I was done, Karen Manley did an amazing job on the song "My Time on Earth". It cemented the message. While I enjoyed preaching, and am grateful for the opportunity, I am ready to get back to what I do best.

Peace

Christmas Eve

Set list:
Oh Holy Night (Diane really did this one right)
What Child is This?
O Come All Ye Faithful
Away in a Manger
Angels We Have Heard On High
The Greatest Gift (a beautiful song by Michael Gleason)
Silent Night

This was one of the better Christmas Eve services I have been a part of. We used live drama elements, video and music. Joe did a great job with the children's teaching time (it was great for the adults too). I enjoyed getting to sing with Diane, and it was really cool to have Adam on piano.

Now I turn my attention to next week, where instead of singing, I will be preaching. I would covet your prayers as I prepare.

Peace

I'm Back

Merry Christmas. I am going to try this again. I have been extremely busy this Christmas season, but now I want to try and start blogging again. I will start by posting our set lists from the past Sunday. A worship leader that I respect does this and it is helpful. Plus it gives me something to plan for. I will also try to post about the Sunday as well. Wish me luck and give me grief if I fall behind.
