Great new song!
Here is a video clip of a great new song. The words are great and the music is quite simple (though you can easily make it more complicated if you have more accomplished musicians) and the whole song has a great groove. The sheet music is available here. Hope you like the song!

Starting Church with a Sermon...my story
So,
This past sunday i decided to reverse the order in which we regularly 'worship with'
So, we started with hello's and then some announcements and then BAM! Can you please turn with to....
and so the sermon began....
I went for approximately 25min and i found a few insights:
1. People were more attentive and actually said to me afterwards that they were not so 'sleepy' LOL....what does that tell you, it is a hard life waking up to get to church by 11am for many....
But on a serious note, i found that most people were really quite 'ready' for the message. People seemed to be a little taken back by the fact that we had 'begun the message' already. In fact! Some people had not even arrived (actually several had not arrived, and this is even after we started 5 minutes late and had 5 min for announcemnets).
2. It was difficult to transition into 'worship', my message was about being filled with the Holy Spirit and so there was opportunity for a good transition as we began worship, but it didnt happen as smooth as i would have liked. We talked about this and it seemed that this could have been vercome if we had someone begin to play the keys towards the end of the message to provide some space to then enter into worship instead of BAM! straight into it! I think it worked well to finish on a mode of singing and worship and this was a positive.
3. People really didnt care or freak out, i mean sure, it was different, but the people didnt revolt and think we had 'lost the plot'
4. The benefit to starting first is that it may keep people on their toes and MAYBE, i said maybe turn up a little earlier.....or maybe not. I think it will help us not to get stuck in a rut, especially when it comes to the 'flavour' of our service.
Overall, a great experience....and i will do it agian in the near future, i do think it really helps if the sermon can be on something that 'fits' with starting first eg On worship, On tithing, On apathy in worship Etc.
I will leave it there for now....
Peace people (who ever is still reading)
