Monday Morning Recap for Sunday – August 13, 2017

Yesterday was pretty cool - we introduced Don Sellers - our new Director of Mercy for OMPC, and the current Sr Pastor of South Park Baptist.  Don's congregation was also kind enough to join us for worship - and we were certainly honored by their presence. We opened yesterday with Glorious Day - a new tune from Passion, and a new tune to OMPC. After the call to worship we sang This is Amazing Grace, My Jesus I Love Thee, O Come to the Altar, and What a Beautiful Name. Our offering song was Good Good Father, and our communion tune was My Beloved - sung by…

Sunday was our 14th annual Bullfrog Choir - an opportunity for the men of OMPC to come, bring their sons and help lead our congregation in worship.  I think we had a record crowd, and the sound was just amazing.  A huge thanks to all that stepped out and up in order to lead well!  Already looking forward to next year! We opened with Arise After our call to worship we sang I Am Free, Crown Him With Many Crowns, Lord I Need You, and 10,000 Reasons Our offering song was a guys quartet singing Awakening from Passion.

Great to be back at OMPC after taking some vacation last week!  We continued this week with our BlueBook series and the week's theme was "becoming."  Our worship set was filled with texts that turned our gaze to Christ, fixing our eyes on Him. We opened yesterday with Glorious Day - a new tune from the Passion folks over in Atlanta. After our call to worship we sang Beautiful One, Waiting Here For You, May the Mind of Christ My Savior, and Savior King. Our offering song was What a Beautiful Name. MEN! Join us this Sunday for our 14th Annual Bullfrog Choir.  No singing…

Monday Morning Recap for Sunday – July 9, 2017

Micah McElveen from Vapor Ministries preached yesterday at OMPC.  Great guy with a tremendous passion for the impoverished, and a great vision for reaching the ends of the earth.  We continued our BlueBook themes this week with "Letting Go."  The illustration I used as we intro'd the "song of the week" was that of letting go those things that we cling to so tightly.  Much like a two-year-old, grasping and obsessing over whatever toy they're playing with, until a parents walks into the room - where the kid drops the toy, throws his arms in the air in surrender... letting…

Monday Morning Recap for Sunday – June 25, 2017

We're halfway through our Blue Book series. If you haven't joined us, it's never too late to grab a copy and join OMPC in walking through this devotional.  Yesterday's sermon was on "Naked" and so our worship set was based around Psalm 30 (joy comes in the morning - God pursues us, and brings us out of shame). We opened with a new tune for OMPC called Glorious Day from the Passion folks over in the ATL. After our call to worship we sang You Lifted Me Out, Jesus, Jesus Paid it All, and What a Beautiful Name (Hillsong). Our offering song was Jesus I…

Monday Morning Recap for Sunday – June 11, 2017

Yesterday's service gave us the opportunity to be reminded of the sustaining, life-giving breath of God.  Our time in worship reflected on the importance of His breath empowering every part of our being, and reminded us of our desperation for His very breath to always be moving, working, and breathing within us. We opened yesterday with All Because of Jesus. After our call to worship we sang Hosanna, Breathe on Me Breath of God, Breathe, and O Come to the Altar. Our offering song was Great Are You Lord (from All Sons and Daughters), and our communion tune was Breathe In Me, from Michael W Smith.

Monday Morning Recap for Sunday – June 4, 2017

It was great to be back at OMPC yesterday after a Sunday away on vacation.  We continued in our Blue Book series with "Following and Being Led." Our worship set was designed around the theme of whole-hearted devotion, sacrifice and surrender.  For me, a key verse for surrender is always found in the 3rd verse of O Worship the King - "Frail children of dust, and feeble as frail, in You do we trust, nor find you to fail..." I'm always forgetting that I am that frail child of dust - my trust is too often in what I'm able…

Ok ok... so it's Thursday.  But if you're checking a blog on Memorial Day to find out song names, you're doing holidays wrong... I was out on Sunday and Jeff Sauceda led worship.  Always does a fantastic job! They opened with Psalm 100. After the call to worship they sang You Lifted Me Out, White Flag, Lord I Need You, and Take My Life (the Passion version). The offering song was Come As You Are, and the communion tune was Jesus Messiah.
