Together

October 30, 2008

Community is a big word right now. Supposedly it’s the fresh new thing in churches as people long not to observe, but to participate; not to simply attend but to truly belong. We all know that this is in reality nothing new. It began long ago in Creation, when God the Father said “Let us make people in our image to be like ourselves.” (Genesis 1:26 NLT)

Culture of Crucial: Now Is Not Normal

October 29, 2008

What do Major League farm systems and worship ministries have in common? For both to be successful over an extended period of time they have to be future minded.

Creating a Culture of Crucial means putting people first. Of course we should always be aware of positions and roles that need to be fulfilled, but we should never see people as a set of skills. People are PEOPLE!

Thoughts From A Guy Who Runs Pro Presenter

October 23, 2008

 

I’ve been running ProPresenter for the better part of the last 7-8 months at Revolution. I figured I’d take a little time to share some thoughts on running it. I believe the grand total of my readers that run ProPresenter - or something similar - total to exactly “0″, so this post should help precisely nobody. Here we go!

Butterflies Walking?

October 21, 2008

 “For anyone who enters God’s rest also rests from his own work, just as God did from his. ~Hebrews 4:10 NIV

She responded: “That’s for after you die! I don’t want to die yet!”

Soon after encountering Christ for the first time as a young teenager, I eagerly began telling everyone who would listen about my newfound faith.  In one conversation as I tried to convince a friend of my brother that Jesus would make a huge positive difference in his life, he gently expressed his doubt about my words. As far as he was concerned, Jesus made no difference at all.

“How can you say that?” I cried in my shock.

Top Ten Rehearsal Tips

I define being prepared as making all of the necessary arrangements in advance that will help the rehearsal, and ultimately the worship service, run as smoothly as possible.  Being prepared shows that I respect the time commitment and effort that my team members give me week in and week out.  While it’s true that most who are reading this are ministry leaders, we also need to remember that we are servants.  
So leaders - serve your team members by respecting their time!
