Hey Guys, way to jump right in ... Mike, you were close, but I think David has a secret alert or something, he gets it within seconds of my hitting the publish button!
This week was rough for me. I woke up at 3:something and was exhausted by service time. First service was iffy on vocals. We rocked the house and shouted to heaven in the second. Our drummer kicked off at a blistering pace, and rather than try to slow it down, we ran with it. God is good.
Love the songs you picked this week, Fred! Mighty To Save, How Great Is Our God, How Great Thou Art... such powerful songs with lyrics that I hope all embrace in exalting God and trusting in Him! :)
I'm hoping to eventually introduce How Great Is Our God (w/the chorus from How Great Thou Art) to our early service group via the choir. Praying for the right time. :)
I'll just be honest and admit that leading worship is kind of tough for me right now. When people are participating I love it but we are in a rebuilding phase at our church and it is - honestly - hard some days. So the 9:00 service was harder for me but the 10:45 seemed a little more alive. I'd appreciate your prayers, I seem to be experiencing a struggle in ministry right now as we continue to walk through a tough time. I really need to hear from God so if you could pray for me I'd appreciate it.
Good set. Hearing a sex talk in church was the third high point of my day. Being in the video was the second high point of my day. And the high point of my day was **censored**!
? well, we always hope people will APPLY what they have learned in church in their own lives when they leave. Poor Brooke, and I thought she wasn't feeling well, today.
Jan, Praying for you - hang in there. I know you've got TONS going on right now, and hope everything comes through OK. Thanks for being vulnerable, and I got your email, will checkout the missions project!
Jim, They are styrofoam ... huge styrofoam letters we cut out - and they sit on a black pedestal stand we built ... concept came from Chris Moncus (www.chrismoncus.com) I believe, our Assoc. Tech Director ... maybe he can chime in over here and give more details and pics.
The series is 6-weeks, so they will be there a while. When the lights are on the letters, they almost glow, and the black pedestal fades away into the black backdrop, and it's almost as if they are suspended. They look even better on the camera.
Great recap. My favorite is seeing "AARRREEE VEEEEEE" and Jay running around the back. I'm gonna call AARRREEEE VEEEEE next time I need a sub drummer.
Fred, you make me wanna come to St. Simons. I'm so excited and encouraged by what I see happening there! Thanks so much for starting this setlist idea and giving us all a chance to share....You rock!!!!

That is a good set. We had people come to the altars before we got through with the second song today. I love watching God does work on hearts. The medley (I guess technically a medley if it's only 2 songs!?) from How Great Is Your Love to Your Love Oh Lord was really sweet coming back into the bridge of How Great instead of the chorus.

Hey Brad, Just left a comment over there, dude you skipped #2 and #3 above ... hahaha ... u linked to your homepage, and then your post didn't link back here at all (it was written in there, but wasn't a link) .. anyway, that will make the whole carnival thing work - so when people click your link, it will go to your Sunday Setlist post, not just your homepage ... .hope you can figure it out ... and thanks!

Sounds like a good morning. I like the video confessional. I might have to try that.
Love your auditorium! Thanks for sharing! We had a great weekend with drama as part of our worship as well as recognizing our veterans at the beginning of our service.
Great set! We had Surrender on the docket for our closer as well, but ended up having an incredible musician dropped in our lap who played a song we were hoping to use in our series (John Mayer's Waiting on the World to Change) as our response song. It was cool stuff! Enjoyed the video.
Posted. We had a great day! I've got 2 envelopes full of band and av team "interested" sign ups from yesterday. We made a call to action during the "commitment" time of our message yesterday. Hoping we'll be able to plug some new folks in the next few weeks!
Dude, your second set is like greatest hits for the church. Can't go wrong with those. I'm with Bobby, I've been checking out the different set lists on lunch breaks. Thanks Fred.
I love "How great is our God" & "How Great Thou art" together. Great set.

Rule #3 - you'd all be amazed how many "Sunday Setlist" links in the Mr. Linky get DELETED every week because folks won't follow this simple rule.
Why? Because people are visiting this "Sunday Setlist" and other posts for days, weeks, and even months later ... and if your link in the Mr. Linky is to your blog's homepage, the visitors will only find your homepage - your most recent blog posts, they won't see your "Sunday Setlist" post, and will be confused.
Please ... #3 ... it's not that hard, folks! OK - back to our regularly scheduled programming.
(we'd be over 50 sites in the Mr. Linky now if Mr. Linky wasn't deleting posts to homepages)
