Well, I’m doing my best to continue writing my thoughts about worship styles and how I see them. In response, to my friend Charlie, I’m making sure to write about worship from a contemporary viewpoint today. I may take a break tomorrow and write about another on Monday. With all that being said… So my [...]

Intoxicated by Independence
Even as I’m sitting here writing this sentence, I can’t believe that I’m writing it. I love this idea and am slightly overwhelmed by it at the same time. As I was getting ready to sit down and really think about this idea, I was having an awesome conversation with a very good friend of [...]

Sometimes I Wonder…
I have decided today that the battle is not mine. What does that mean? I realize that God is prepping me for something big and I don’t know what it is. However, Satan surely knows what it is and has decided to see if he can wear me down with all these peripheral discussions, arguments [...]

Forward Progression
So, this year has already brought challenges in my life. I expected it to, because life always brings challenges. I didn’t think that I wouldn’t get through 10 days before things started to happen. Oh well, that’s life I guess. I think that God is getting me ready for something big…something I haven’t quite imagined [...]

Naked Worship
Okay, so the title was a BIT much, but at least you looked at it. I was reading about my friend David and ran across the passage in 2 Samuel 6 when David was dancing before the Lord as they brought the Ark back to Jerusalem. This struck me in a couple different ways. The [...]

“Worship God…”
That is such a loaded statement. It doesn’t seem like it would be to hard to follow, but we seem to have a hard time doing in consistently. I wonder why that is. As Christians, our desire should be to worship God for everything that he has done. But so many other things get in [...]
