Worship : 27 September 2009

« Back to blog

Come and join in with Sunday Setlists over at FredMckinnon.com, and see how churches around the world have been worshipping this week. This morning's message was on gifts (ministry and spiritual) and the one gift that every Christian has - the ministry gift of reconciliation. Taken from 2 Corinthians 5:17 onwards, it was a really good spin on the usual way of preaching the great commission. Music Sunday AM 1. No Reason To Hide (Crocker, Houston / Hillsong) 2. I Walk By Faith (Chris Falson) 3. Hosanna (Fraser / Hillsong) 4. He Is Lord (Fielding / Hillsong) ...then following tithes, offerings, news... 5. Your Love Is My Song (Murgida / Awesome Church) ...and to close the service... 6. free-worship - including Fire Fall Down, but over the chords to No Reason To Hide, and He Is Lord... Rachael led worship today, and vocally led all the songs apart from No Reason To Hide, which I did. At the end of the service we had a very sweet ministry and free-worship time, and our pastor asked Rach to lead us in free-worship. Rachael is not quite 18, and only relatively new to leading the worship as opposed to leading songs, but she did a truly great job of the free-worship as well as the opening music set, and is excited to take away some great lessons on what she needs to do to keep growing into her gifting. She's contemplating studying overseas next year, which would be great for her but a loss for the church while she's away (especially with Diane and I heading to N.Ireland early next year too). Sunday PM Confession : Diane and I took the afternoon / evening off, even though the teaching on the Day of Atonement Feast (Yom Kippur) and how that relates to Christian life would have been great. With me working long days in the studio recording our worship album, and with planning needing to be done to emigrate too, we've decided that the weeks I have a studio session on Saturday, we'll not do the night service. After all, we'll end up with a video copy anyway since Diane will edit it for TV. Finally, an update on our album recording. Yesterday's session was Your Love Is My Song, which was also the first song we've done where the writer didn't sing lead vocals. There'll be a few more of those coming up in the next 2 months, and we're still on track for a pre-Christmas release. I hope. Still a lot to be done, not just with the recording, but the administration side of it all too. I'm taking it all one day at a time. And still really enjoying the job of producer. Still, time will tell if I'm actually any good at it or whether I just enjoy it. ;) Note for Facebook readers : remember if I post a video or song, you'll need to actually click through to my blog to see or listen. You know you want to.
