Sunday Reflections 11/7/10

Set List: Better is One Day Our God Saves Revelation Song It Is Well I Exalt Thee This Sunday was incredible on a lot of levels. One, it was just plain fun to be back playing/ leading in music with the crew. It had been almost a month since I last led, and I was certainly missing it. Another high was just the overall vibe in the room. THE PLACE WAS PACKED. There were 630 or so people...

SUNDAY REFLECTIONS 10.31.2010

Set List: Beautiful Jesus Mighty To Save Our God Jesus Paid It All It had been awhile since I had been on stage to lead the whole worship time by myself. So getting ready to lead, at the start, was getting pretty stressful and honestly pretty scary at moments. And that was really bothering my heart. I am stressing and worrying about leading our church in a time of worship to our God....

SET LIST HOSANNA OUR GOD SAVES REVELATION SONG TURN YOUR EYES EVERYTHING JESUS ALL FOR JESUS The highlights for me this particular week seemed endless. First, the service started with an incredible video to the song of Awake O’Sleeper. It just seemed to have an impact right off the hop. Then Jill led Hosanna which completely blessed me! By the time we sang Our God Saves which...

SUNDAY REFLECTIONS 10.10.10

Thanksgiving Sunday…I have to be honest and say when I initially chose the music, I did not realize it was Thanksgiving Sunday. When I did realize it, I thought I would change the set. I looked at it again and I felt a nudge from God telling me to leave it. I have so many things in my life that I am thankful for. I try to keep that spirit of thankfulness with me all the time. I cherish...

Sunday 10.3.10

Set List: Heart of Worship Sing Sing Sing You’ll Come Lead me to the Cross Our God A Beautiful Exchange Jesus Paid it All Last Sunday was just incredible, on so many levels. I don’t think I have put more time and effort into any one Sunday to date in my ministry. It’s not that this Sunday (as important as it may have been) was all that much more important than any...

Sunday Reflections 9.26.10

WOW.. So, this is SUPER late, but I figure better late than never. Honestly, this is the first chance I have had to really sit down and think about this service. So “today” was a big Sunday in the life of our church. 1. It marked the end of our summer series on the Sermon on the mount (which was an incredible series btw. Listen back on our website at www.kingsvalley.ca if you...

SUNDAY REFLECTIONS AND SNT 19.09.10

SET LIST Glory Hungry You’re Beautiful Beautiful Exchange What an awesome day! It was just like the “old days” when you’d go home after church, have lunch or a big Sunday dinner and come right back. I loved seeing the congregation respond so well to songs that are now in our regular rotation like You’re Beautiful. When folks know the tune well, they can...

SNT 09/19/10

We had our first SNT (Sunday Night Thing)…whatever you want to call it…worship night for the first time this year and I felt like we truly met with our God. It was one of those worship times where as the worship leader, I forgot I was even on the stage. I might as well have been in the crowd worshipping with everyone as one body, one offering of praise and love to the God that...

Set list Better is One Day Our God Give Us Clean Hands Jesus All for Jesus I know I keep saying it but I am so excited about this year at KVWC!! Sometimes in your life things just feel dark and it can be difficult to see the Spirit’s hand moving even though you know it is. But lately I have been seeing (in big and small ways) the fruits of my prayers. I feel like the Holy Spirit is...

Sunday Reflections 5.9.10

Set List: Our God You’re Beautiful Revelation Song The Stand Shout Unto God Sunday was a day of firsts. It was the first Sunday of the fall rotation for the worship leaders and musicians. I am really looking forward to the new format of mixing up the bands and leaders a bit in an effort to bring the best out of everyone while reaching toward developing a sound and style of worship...

SUNDAY REFLECTIONS 8.29.2010

Set: Jesus Paid It All Beautiful Jesus Mighty To Save The Stand Hallelujah (Our God Reigns) Preparing for the worship this week was a little more intense and stressful on my mind and my heart than other weeks. We had Dylan on drums and Jack on keys for the first time yesterday morning, and just in my own mind I found myself really stressed about how it would go and I wanted to make sure...

Set: True Love Agnus Dei Lead me to the cross Hosanna Well, in a nutshell, I thought Sunday was amazing. Everything from the music to the sermon seemed to flow seamlessly. Not that a “smooth” service is the ultimate goal, but it sure is nice when it happens. The band was especially amped and excited to be leading Sunday, which was a nice shift from the last time we played,...

Set list Hosanna (Hillsong United version) Desert Song I Exalt Thee Hungry There were a ton of highlights to this service for me this week. I just can’t seem to get enough of Brooke Fraser’s music lately so I included Hosanna and Desert Song. Desert Song is still somewhat new to the church but I think it’s a keeper. I especially love declaring that bridge. “All of my...

Set List: Everlasting God (B) Beautiful Jesus (C) How He Loves (C) Amazing Grace (C) Give me Jesus (C) Every so often, as a worship leader I find myself in a battle. There is a part of me on a given morning that truly is wanting to glorify God, and to be used by Him for His kingdom come on earth. The other part of me often chases “camp high” experiences. Let me explain:...

Serving each other through worship songs

God wants us to speak to each other through psalms, hymns and worship songs when we gather as the church (Eph. 5:19). This morning as we led in worship, this seemed to be happening. The most important thing a human being can do is to validate our Creator… The One who saves us. Father God, we will live to validate you and your glory with each other and in our world. This morning rocked because...

SUNDAY REFLECTIONS 8.01.10

Our God Saves Holy Is the Lord Our God We Fall Down Starting the morning off with a declaration saying OUR GOD SAVES just connected my heart with our God who is waiting for us to dive in and enter into a devoted and surrendering time of worship with Him. It’s so easy to sing or say words like “our God saves” and not really mean what we’re saying. But I felt this...

What makes great worship? (Part 1) A Worship...

This past week I met with a friend who is going to be joining our ministry efforts here at Kings Valley as a sound man. We discussed grand scale issues like vision and direction, and talked about the nitty gritty of sound and worship experiences. Near the end of our conversation my friend asked me “who are you modelling your worship experiences after?” “What bands and groups,...

United

God has been doing incredible things throughout our church as a whole. I have the awesome opportunity to lead the church in worship on Sunday mornings, as well as through the week with our middle school and high school youth group. Last fall we started having live worship every single week…and after a few months the kids were opening up in a way that could only be God flowing through the...

Set list: Beautiful One Hosanna (Paul Baloche) I Adore You Lead Me To the Cross Mighty to Save Before I talk specifically about this past Sunday, I have to say I am repeatedly overwhelmed at the opportunity I’ve been given at Kings Valley to sing and worship with such incredibly talented musicians and singers. I love worshipping through music!! Seriously, what a privilege! And...

Calling all Photographers!

Do you have an interest in photography? Do you come to Kings Valley on Sundays? GREAT! We think that there are more ways to worship our God than just through music… We believe that God has given us many different mediums and art forms to worship Him, and we would like to broaden our weekly worship horizon. If you are a photographer, we would love for you to bring your camera to our...

Thoughts on Sunday: 7.18.10

Agnus Dei (C/D) Did you feel the mountains tremble? (D) Came to my rescue (C) How He loves (C) I have decided to follow Jesus (C) Yesterday was one of the first times I had led worship in a couple of months. It felt great to be back, and I thoroughly enjoyed the fact that it was just “a regular Sunday in July.” I found that in spite of the fact that many of us (myself...

Album Review: The Medicine by John Mark McMillan

This is more of a promotion than a review. Just needed to put on everyone’s radar the album “The Medicine” by John Mark McMillan. The Medicine is a must own, and a start to finish incredible album. I honestly haven’t listened to much else in about a month. My biggest beef with most mainstream “Christian” music, and modern worship music, is that lyrically,...
