setlists

Yesterday's set was all about remembering God's unflinching faithfulness, and die-hard pursuit of us, even in our desire to run.  No matter where we go, or how fast we run, He is pursuing us, and outrunning us…We opened yesterday with a song I wrote a couple years ago out of Hosea called Let Us Return.After our call to worship we sang Your Grace is Enough, Stronger, How He Loves, How Deep the Father's Love for Us, and The Stand.Our offering song was one that my wife and I wrote back during Bob's sermon series on Hosea.  It's called Covenant Song and…

We had a choir Sunday yesterday, AND we're already at the end of January.  Hard to believe.We're continuing preparations for our "not really palm sunday" worship service - set for March 10, as Palm Sunday is in the midst of Alabama's spring break.We opened yesterday with I Am Free.After our call to worship we sang Hosanna, Everlasting God (with the Anthony Evans OH), Praise to the Lord the Almighty, and 10,000 Reasons.Our offering song was Waiting Here for You - just an fantastic tune.

Yesterday was a morning/worship set for considering our position/posture in worship - as Bob's been preaching through the first few verses of 1 Peter the past few weeks - I'm reminded of how without God acting is us first - we don't possess the ability to sing His praise… HE lifted us out, HE sets our feet, HE tunes our hearts, HE leads us…We opened yesterday with Arise and Sing - a new-ish song from Brenton Brown that also has the same intro as Journey's Faithfully.After our call to worship we sang You Lifted Me Out, Surrender, and Lead Me to…

We had a great morning of worship yesterday, and Bob is continuing his series on 1 Peter.We opened with All Who Are Thirsty.After our call to worship we sang Joyful (Brenton Brown), The Same Love, We Will Run, and How Deep the Father's Love for Us.Our offering song was A Mighty Fortress (Knockels).For Communion, Josh Vigneulle and I played instrumental versions of We Will Run and How He Loves.

Happy new year!  What a great morning of worship yesterday - so good to be back after a week's vacation.We opened yesterday with White Flag.After our call to worship we sang Not To Us, Come Ye Sinners, Search Me, and Be Thou My Vision.Our offering song was One Thing Remains.I mentioned during worship yesterday that New Year's Resolutions were at the forefront of my mind as I was putting together the worship set.  The streets are more crowded with joggers, Facebook is really quiet, people are not only showing up, but coming on time to church…. So many resolutions.  I've…

Well - it's Wednesday, and it also seems like most of the world isn't back at work yet, but here we are… moving rapidly towards Sunday.I was out of town last weekend - enjoying some time away with my bride at the "Happiest Place on Earth."Jenny Pruitt led worship for us - and opened with Beautiful One.After the call to worship they sang Amazing God, In Christ Alone, You Alone, and Blessed Be Your Name.We start choir back one week from today - Wednesday, January 9th from 6-7 in the choir room, as we begin preparations for our Easter Worship…

We've done a variation of the same Christmas Eve service since I've been here, which was Christmas 2003.  The Means family has blessed us every year by leading the service…We opened the 5:00 service with a time of carol singing for about 15 minutes prior. We officially opened our service with Because of Your Love.After our call to worship we sang Joy to the World, Hark the Herald Angels Sing, Here I am to Worship (first verse only), and Away in a Manger.Carlee then sang Welcome to Our World, with a simultaneous signing from Christy Scotch.Rob Bright then read the Christmas…

We had a great morning of worship yesterday for our 4th and final sunday of advent. We opened with Our God Saves.After our call to worship we sang Angels We Have Heard on High, Amazing God, Angels from the Realms of Glory (with a bit of Little River Band's Lady thrown in), Your Name, and How He Loves.Our offering song was a tune sung by Carlee Green called Light of the World.

I don't have our normal worship recap for yesterday - as it was our Christmas worship service that took the entire service time.  I'll post the videos here, this week for additional viewing.  So thankful for the three folks that stepped out and shared their stories.I will say this - one of my favorite songs from yesterday was from Tim Hughes's new worship album.  I don't think he intended it to be a Christmas song - but the lyrics are undeniable as one.  The title is God is Coming - and the chorus lyric is "Here You come, running to…

Yesterday was the 2nd Sunday of Advent - the Bethlehem candle on the traditional Advent Calendar…We opened yesterday with All Because of Jesus.After our call to worship we sang  Sing to the King, O Come All Ye Faithful, O Little Town of Bethlehem, and You Alone Can Rescue.I was struck by the last verse in O Little Town - "cast out our sin and enter in, be born in us today" and how well it fits with the opening line for You Alone Can Rescue - "who, Oh Lord, can save themselves, their own souls could heal…"For our offering song, Lauren…
