“How Great Thou Art” is such a wonderful portrayal of the gospel story. It captures this lovely balance between informative, poetic verses and the soaring, soulful chorus sung in response to that good news. This is definitely one worth memorizing.

“When the Answer is No” Good Friday Sermon 2022
A few weeks back I had the honor of giving a mini sermon during our Good Friday service.

Now, asContinue reading “Sonnet: The Quiet Morning Hours Call for Prayer”

Help! The worship team is playing an Instrumental… What do I do?
We’ve all been there. We’re about 2/3rds of the way through the medium paced song. The verses were nice, the chorus was nice, but then BAM! The band is now playing an instrumental (most likely its just the chorus chords with instruments playing the melody instead of the voices singing). It sounds great, but whatContinue reading “Help!
