So today weirded me out because Nathan didn’t let Kellie and I sit together to take notes for each other. Nathan, as Darrell said this morning, sometimes it is good for people to feel our wrath!

Anyway, so to start off this morning, our Chaplain Darrell Harris played the following video (one of my favorite tunes) to set up our morning worship service. If you watch the whole thing you’ll see what was so interesting about it, especially since we saw it at 8:30 in the morning. Hint: Underoath is a hardcore band.

These are few quotes from today’s class:

“Throughout history, Christians have wanted music to move to.” -Lester Ruth

“Its refreshing to see a worship service where the pastors are completely unconcerned with the reaction of the congregation.” -Matt Sigler

“The worship that we do matters not, only the worship that Christ gives to God the Father matters. Our Job is to get caught up in that.”

Worship is the ongoing song and dance of Jesus Christ.

Worship renewal often times has nothing to do with music but with scripture and prayer. There are fewer fights this way. - Lester Ruth

When you are a church under persecution, there can be no denominations. When you are the a church of the empire, you can. -Lester Ruth

I feel like maybe in the church, we do this to each other way too often.

So my friend Irene just hipped me to a new band called Passion Pit. Killin’ stuff! No it’s not lagging!

My wife just showed me the brand new Regina Spektor video. Killin’!

Of coarse he can!

Here are two films by Benjamin Reece. I post too many videos. I hate when I try to comment on them.

Comment: I think I do love people.

This is a quick excerpt of the Forefront playing “Siren’s Eye,” a composition by Rich Van Voorst, that was performed at a benefit concert last Monday. This is also posted in the videos section on the media page.
