Monday Morning Recap for Sunday – June 28, 2015

We had quite the different feel and configuration for our worship service yesterday.  We dove right in with a prayer and praise litany, as Bob led our church through a prayer time, re-reflecting on his sermon points from last Sunday.  Always good to change it up - and so thankful for my great teams of musicians for their flexibility and talent!So, having said that - we broke dramatically from our normal liturgy of worship... but the songs we did included Jesus Only Jesus, Lord I Need You, Search Me, Lay it Down, And Can It Be (set to Clocks by Coldplay),…
