Comment on Finally, an update! by Beth Almquist

This post brings back memories! My father was the pastor and my mother the organist, so my brothers and I were often recipients of “the look” from the choir loft, otherwise known as the hairy eyeball. And now, as God would have it, I am married to a pastor and I am pianist for our congregation. My sons are old enough to sit by themselves now, but definitely not too old for my own version of the hairy eyeball!

They lost their original domain name when the renewal of it was late and someone else scooped it up.(That was 2 or 3 yrs ago). Fortunately they found a new home. They are an excellent hymn resource, I like that they use Noteworthy Composer also.

I used this all the time when writing my curriculum for children’s church. I often put a link to songs, info, etc. on the take home sheet, as there were frequently songs that wouldn’t be familiar to all the folks who are used to CCM.

Comment on Called to Worship: preparing our hearts, in 3 parts by pmershon

Rick,
I appreciate the good words here. I’m trying to provide words of encouragement to the daily worshipper and provide resources and examples to worship leaders. This all stems from how I’ve tried to prepare my congregations over the years.

Thanks again!

Comment on 6 Physical Factors That Can Impact Your Worship Service by Rick Jensen

Ahh, that’s great!! I sometimes wonder what some of our churches would do if people walked in one morning to find old couches and chairs and things stripped bare…. but that’s the subversive side of me I think

Warren’s admonitions obviously have experience and a measure of truth in them but I had to laugh as I thought about our little inner-city church that meets in a warehouse with couches and chairs from the Goodwill for seating. While I’m very distracted by the lack of spatial beauty (never mind the temperature control!), the others who attend off the streets, from “half-way houses” and the “‘hood” don’t seem to care. They do respond to the embracing love, acceptance and honesty that they encounter there. I’ve had to learn that worship is a matter of the heart. . . and my will. . . not my surroundings. It has been a hard, but valuable lesson.

Thank you so much for reading. Benj is an old college friend and a great thinker. Great to see you highlight Sojourn Music as well…their Advent album is amazing!
