Leading Worship

“If leading worship is just about bringing a group of people into a room so we can get goosebumps and sing songs together, there’s not much value in that. But if leading worship is a means to an end, that we leave this place as a different kind of people, as part of a new humanity that God wants to create – the people that are caring for the widows and orphans, that aren’t bound by the systems of this world but becoming free, becoming fully engaged in our world – then that matters.”

Michael Gungor

228/601 COLLIDE

Sunday night, our church hosted an event know as 228/601 Collide. It was basically a gathering of youth thru college age students from the South Mississippi region. Hence the "228" and "601" area codes being represented. Over 275 students were in attendance with 15 youth groups taking part in shaking our region!

If you missed out (or if you're too old to attend like me) here is a link to the stream from that night. Be ready for your world to be rocked! COLLIDE

The next 228/601 Collide will be held on October 30th at Northwood Church Gulfport campus. If you need more info, check out the Collide facebook page!

Songwriting

So since I last blogged, I have written 3 more songs! I'm really excited. It's like once God poured out the anointing for the first song, it comes easily now. What a blessing! I think the most amazing part is that God is giving me songs that are specifically for our church. I'll post lyrics later, but the three new songs are "Listen (Psalm 95)", "The Chamber" (which started as a spontaneous song that came out of our Wednesday prayer meeting), and the third one is untitled. Still working on a name for that one. :)

Thanks for being so encouraging and believing in me! God is doing great things in South Mississippi, and I'm so excited to be a part of it.
