I loved the way Robbie Hinton opened our 10:45 service yesterday - reminding us that we LONG for so much, and so often the harried nature of our summer vacations represent just that - trying to achieve shalom through the perfect vacation, and of course posting pictures online.  How is God trying to recapture your attention to stare at his gaze?We opened yesterday with Famous One.After our call to worship we sang Beautiful One, The Stand, Holy (by Matt Redman), and Fairest Lord Jesus.Our offering song was a tune that I just love from Brenton Brown called Adoration.GUYS!  Join us this…

It doesn't seem like June should be over - the year is flying by.  Our next big event for the Worship Ministry is our 11th annual Bullfrog Choir - coming up at the end of July on the 27th.  GREAT time for all men of the church to get involved in leading worship.  No former singing experience is necessary.  Guys - come and lead by singing (or croaking) whatever you sing or croak in the pew.  with over 100 guys singing at once, you'll blend right in, and be able to help model worshipping for your family.We opened last Sunday…

The Choir led in worship last Sunday.  I love choir Sundays.  Great group of people, great friends, great time of community and fellowship.  Also had a great guitar solo at the end of Blessed Be Your Name by one of my longest serving guitarist - Jack Swaim.  As Bob has quoted many times, from that great movie Chariots of Fire - "when I run I feel God's pleasure," when Jack plays his guitar, I sense God's pleasure.  Something amazingly humble happens when Jack cuts loose.  It's never too much, always fits, and always leads me closer to the throne.We opened last Sunday…
