Weekend Review 11-0102-08 2008-11-02 10:40:19 This was a fantastic weekend. It was the first weekend where we had a volunteer worship leader and a volunteer band leader working together with almost no help from me. And it went very well! First of all, the worship leader has a tremendous voice that works way better with a lot of the songs [...] Read more:Weekend
Worship Ministry Catalyst Podcast - Episode 16 - The Church Choir 2008-10-27 17:44:05 In this week’s episode, David & Kevin talk about ChurchChoir
s. We’ve both been doing a lot of thinking about church choirs, and are trying to determine whether they are relevant for our churches and our communities. It’s a touchy topic because choir has long been an establishment in many churches, and it often involves [...] Read more:Catalyst

Weekend Review - 10-2526-08 2008-10-27 16:32:54 This weekend was surprisingly easy. There were a couple of things that made it so. The first was that we were only doing 3 songs, so we only had to work them up in the same amount of time that we have to work out four songs on most weekends, so that was good. I [...] Read more:Weekend
Weekend Review - 10-1819-08 2008-10-19 10:26:14 This weekend we had one of our newer drummers playing with us. This was his third time playing with us over all. He’s really working hard at what he’s doing and I can tell that he’s really driven to do the very best he can. I find that I have to evaluate the weekend in [...] Read more:Weekend

I missed last weekend due to a staff retreat, and to be honest I’d much rather review it than this most recent weekend. Last weekend was the final weekend in our Church 1.0 series. It was a great weekend, from beginning to end. To start it off, we had the fullest band I’ve had since [...] Read more:Weekend
Weekend Review 09-2728-08 2008-09-28 10:36:39 We had another great weekend this week. This was communion weekend, so that was fun to work in as well. One creative element we did this week was a reading that I found over on nailscars.com. It was called “Will you Serve me in Love?” It worked perfect for what we were talking about this [...] Read more:Weekend
The Leadership Challenge 2008-09-22 04:01:47 I came across this quote in a book I’m reading, The LeadershipChallenge
by Kouzes, Posner.
In some ways, leaders live their lives backward. They see pictures in their minds eye of what the results will look like even before they’ve started their project, much as an architect draws a blueprint or an engineer builds a [...]

Anatomy of a good song chart - pt. 1 2008-09-09 00:04:43 I don’t know about you, but I’ve found myself in this situation more than once. You’re getting your charts ready for rehearsal, and as you’re doing so you come across a chart that you know is weak. But, because you’re running out of time, you just go ahead and shove it into the copier. Not [...]
Weekend Review 09-0607-08 2008-09-07 10:37:37 This weekend is kind of our get back into gear weekend. We’ve been doing some low key stuff for the summer, but now that everyone’s going back to school and their routines are getting formed for the year, we’re starting to ramp things back up. Our band was almost full this weekend. I’m doing my [...] Read more:Weekend

Weekend Review 08-0910-08 2008-08-10 14:52:22 This weekend was another good weekend. We had a new drummer this weekend - which was great. It’s great to have someone else who’s willing and excited to play. He’s got a big learning curve to pick up a bunch of new songs as he first gets going, but I’m sure he will do great.
We [...] Read more:Weekend
Random Thoughts #2 2008-08-04 11:40:55 I wanted to write some more about routine. I talked about it last week, and got some interesting feedback on that post. I wanted to talk about it on a very practical level. It’s another way that routine could be a bad thing. Remember last week I said there are some situations in life where [...] Read more:Random

Weekend Review - 08-0203-08 2008-08-03 16:22:07 This weekend, we are without a drummer. At first I thought it was going to be rough and awkward, but it actually turned out quite well. This was our set:

Weekend Review 07-2627-08 2008-08-03 16:17:28 Yeah, I know this is very late, but at least I’m doing it. We’ve actually already done our review of the weekend on Tuesday morning in our worship planning meeting, I’ve just not had time to be able to write it down here yet.
I put in a couple of retro songs this weekend. One of [...] Read more:Weekend

Next week, I have an interview scheduled [...]

Routine 2008-07-23 23:41:00 Routine is an enemy. It’s a ghost. It will sneak in unnoticed and steal away what was once creative and turn it into a tradition. Routine is something to be avoided at all costs. Routine is not creative. Routine is a pattern, at best done because it worked, at worst because it’s habit.
I’m talking about [...] Read more:Routine
