Tech Resource: Worship Band In Hand

Review – Worship Band In Hand – Musicians in a High Tech Box

I am not a ‘worship techie’ as much as some people, but I do like to look at technologies to arm the small church and small group gatherings, because this is where I do most of my worship leading time and where I like to target our worship resources.  I recently got the opportunity to review Worship Band in Hand, another iPhone/iPad/iPod Touch app technology for worship leaders to use.

As the name implies, Worship Band in Hand is really geared to augmenting missing pieces of your band with individual parts.  It does so by providing a simple interface, which is really just a multi-track volume control, for every track on the recordings.  Since the source for the recordings are the record labels themselves, you essentially get the entire label recording (minus lead vocals) broken down into individual parts and individually controllable.

In 4 Sentences, John Wesley Teaches Us How To Sing In Church

“Above all sing spiritually. Have an eye to God in every word you sing. Aim at pleasing him more than yourself, or any other creature. In order to do this attend strictly to the sense of what you sing, and see that your heart is not carried away with the sound, but offered to God continually; so shall your singing be such as the Lord will approve here, and reward you when he comes in the clouds of heaven.” [Read more...]

Rejoicing by Abby Sutton (Review by TWC Member)

Abby is Director of Worship Programming at Westover Church in Greenbsoro, NC.  She’s also a good friend.  I’ve known Abby for several years, so I’ve come to know her heart for the Lord, and I can testify she is truly a worshiper of Jesus, the risen Christ.

Her love and passion for the Lord is clearly evident in her worshipful album, Rejoicing.  After many months of recording with several people from the local NC Triad community, she released Rejoicing in November 2009.  Although not all songs are intended for congregational use, every song is a reflection of Abby pouring out her heart before the Lord.  The love and passion behind her voice clearly reveal the worship lifestyle she lives.
