Abbeville Spring Festival 2014

We were so grateful to be able to play at the Abbeville Spring Festival on Thursday night.  It is always a special endeavor to play outside the walls of a church building and engage some new folks. Concentrating was a little difficult as I smelled the alligator-on-a-stick stand a little ways from us and heard the screams of those on …

“Holy” // Storytellers

We led the song “Holy” on Sunday from the “Stand Firm” project.  This was the second song we worked on composing as a group and has been one of our church’s favorites to sing. The song is based off of 1 Peter 1:13-2:3. The Scripture 1:13 Therefore, preparing your minds for action, and being sober-minded, set your hope fully on …

“Living Hope” // Storytellers

It has been so encouraging to hear the feedback from folks concerning the “Stand Firm” album we released on Sunday.  We actually sold out of the first batch, that was a shocker!  No worries, we do have some additional copies available now and you can also get your copy on iTunes. The first song on the project is called “Living

1 Peter Recap

What a fantastic day to celebrate as a church!  To finish up the 1 Peter series, we read through the entire book as a church and worshiped at every turn. We did all 13 tracks from the “Stand Firm” album as Jeff read through the passages.  We have introduced these songs along the way, but doing it completely through this

Sometimes You Carry the Vision and Sometimes the Vision Carries You

I had this crazy idea to write a worship album from 1 Peter.  It was going to be difficult to complete it in the timeframe, but the lofty goal was exciting to the crew.  When I first mentioned the idea, they were all in and we got to work feverishly on it. We decided that we would introduce the songs

1 Peter Worship Album

I’m excited to share with you a new project for North Side Worship.  We are writing an album based upon 1 Peter.

Our church is going through a study of 1 Peter.  It is entitled “Stand Firm.”  We started it last Sunday, and if calculations are correct, we will be finishing the end of January 2014.  The book is all about standing firm as believers during difficult times.  It’s a pretty timely message these days.

Since we would be spending so much time in this book, we wanted to cement these biblical truths in the ears of our church.  Ever since we started focusing on discipling people through worship, we have been amazed at how people are growing through this ministry.

Our band got together and studied 1 Peter one day intensively.  We studied and we studied.  After really understanding it as a book, we then broke it down into about 12 songs that we wanted to write.  That day we started on some of them.  We have a goal of about 4 songs a month.  We have 4 complete, and we are in the process of the next 4 as we speak.  We hope to finish all the songs by the beginning of October.

Knowing Jesus Live Release

468353_10151372503765877_2063395594_o

I got to watch the “Knowing Jesus” DVD with our band and tech team tonight at the house. It was a great time watching these people worship along to these biblical truths. 16 months ago we met in our house to begin writing these songs, and here we sat together as a family celebrating what God has done among us.

I am blown away at how well this came together. God blessed us with some special people on our team and outside our team to put together an incredible double disc CD and DVD. It sings the Bible. You can feel the passion in the room. It’s very special.

We will have each available on Sunday for $15. Get both for $25. Get some for a friend. Share the gospel in a unique way.

Tonight, I am truly humbled that these wonderful worship leaders let me lead with them.

Here’s a sneak peek from the video – hope you enjoy:

Live Recording – Knowing Jesus

knowing jesus (33)

We have some exciting news to share with you today!

1. We are almost out of tickets for Knowing Jesus this weekend.  There are a few left for Saturday.  Friday is completely gone.  Now, these are free tickets.  So, we anticipate some tickets being out and not being used.  We will have overflow, and there is a chance that we will have extra seats – even on Friday.  The best bet is to get there.  We will open doors at 6:30.  If you do not have a ticket, we will give you a holding ticket.  If there are seats in the auditorium at 6:55, you come on in.  We are overwhelmed at the response.  We shouldn’t be surprised.  Jesus would attract a standing room only crowd back then, no reason He wouldn’t do it now.  Even if it is super packed, let’s rejoice in the fact and get cozy to the people next to you!

2. We are making a live recording from this weekend!  We have been making preparations for this for a while but held back the news of it.  God has placed some wonderful friends in our lives that are helping record a live DVD and CD from this weekend’s service.
