We are so thrilled to share with you that we’re bringing Refuge back in 2013. Our first Refuge, back in October 2011 was an incredible time of refreshment and encouragement. Our fall dates for Refuge 2012 just weren’t working out so after much prayer we decided to plan ahead and move Refuge to early Spring.

Confusing Worship Lyric Disorder
June 25, 2012 by 34 Comments
We’ve all been there – the room is still, the lights are dimmed, and the Worship Leader has pulled out the “just-the-voices” card. The atmosphere is electric and everyone is feeling it – but you have one problem: you don’t have the slightest clue what that last line of the song was supposed to mean.

Self-Serving Leadership: The Platform is Not Your Throne
June 22, 2012 by 16 Comments
Thanks to Joel Klampert for sharing these thoughts with TWC today.
I recently watched a worship experience video with Brian Doerksen called Level Ground. What I loved about the video was not the music actually. It was that the entire service/event had the band and leaders on the floor with the congregants. The stage was empty. No body was raised higher than another and everybody was pointed towards the same place.
There was only one person that was lifted up that day. Only one being who could claim the glory. That person was God alone. Brian says in his lyrics “none of us are worthy on our own.”

8 Things Not To Do Before Worship
June 15, 2012 by 22 Comments
So I was thinking through a few things the past couple of weeks and with a few Sunday morning mishaps along the way, I thought I would share 8 things not to do before worship.
Tongue in cheek of course!
Most of these are taken from actual experience… or failures.
