Long Time No Post & New Videos

Sorry to have gone so long without posting.  Things have been crazy busy around here lately.  In about a week school will be out and I’ll have all the time in the world to post.  Until then, enjoy some new videos that Jerrad and I uploaded.

Wedding Etiquette

I am the Media Team chairperson at my church.  What that means is that I have to make sure there’s someone to run the sound system and the computer media at all the services and special events.  It’s really not as special as it sounds.  Occasionally (meaning once every 3-4 years), there will be a person from outside the church who plans to get married there.  They usually call us way in advance to schedule someone to run the sound for the wedding.  Well, I got a call on Thursday 5/8 for a wedding that will be on Saturday 5/24…Memorial Day weekend.  So not only is this short notice, it’s a holiday weekend.  Most all of my techs are out of town and I’ll probably get stuck having to do the wedding.  My question is:  According to the rules of etiquette, what is the proper amount of advance notice for securing a sound tech for your wedding?  Just curious.

Too lazy…

The Spirt of the Lord

I usually sing with the music minister at my church whenever we do Praise and Worship music during a service.  I’ll have to admit that sometimes my worship is somewhat fake.  I believe the words I’m singing, but sometimes I’m hindered by other things going on in my mind at the time.  But tonight…Oh tonight…things were much different.  We were singing one of my all time favorite songs, “Shout to the Lord” by Darlene Zschech.   I could feel God’s presence when I started to sing.  But as I got to the second verse, I began to shake and cry.  I almost couldn’t finish the words.  I closed my eyes, and raised my hands (something unusual in a Baptist church) and let the power of the Holy Spirit take over in my life.  I don’t remember the song.  I just remember God’s presence and power in me at that time.  It has been years since I felt that same overwhelming presence.  It was so awesome…so humbling…so moving. 

Father, I pray for your presence in my life daily.  I pray that I can feel you move in me like that more often.  And I pray that you awaken a revival in this church where people feel you and truly worship you.  You are so amazing Lord, and I thank you for all that you do in my life.
