sooo, this is another post submitted as a part of the craziness over on fred’s blog…it’s a weekly hot spot for worship leaders to blog about what all happened in their weekend services…go check it out!!!
i was back for week five in the LIVE services of lima community church…i did however had saturday night off, and only lead the two sunday services…
this week we started off with a short “jam session” if you will…then we rolled into our video announcements and our meet and greet time…and we were off…
1. everyone (praises)…by ross parsley
2. everlasting God…by lincoln brewster
then there was a short video our tech staff put together…it was a reading of revelation four…the words came across the screen as they were read…i switched over and played keys through the reading…
3. revelation song…by gateway worship
in both of the sunday services we had a ministry time at this point…and then we took up the offering…
4. i’m letting go…by francesca battistelli
then we had our message given by the lead pastor, dan huckins…and at the end of his message he introduced a new staff member…he finished up by answering questions that people in the service had text messaged in…
5. everyone (praises) REPRISE…
this weekend was a little odd for me…it’s not so simple coming in on sunday morning, when i wasn’t there the night before…there is another person leading worship and though we try to lay the songs out and not completely confuse the band…there are still subtle differences that can create confusion…there were also a couple of late additions to the service that i needed to figure out…in the end it all came together just fine…
the first service is normally a little more reserved…NOT this week…they were up on their feet and clapping during the jam session…which was slightly squelched when we went into the video announcements…the second service was the more reserved service this week…but only for the first 10 minutes or so…it was somewhat of a curveball, maybe more like a change-up…
i did introduce “revelation song” this weekend(i told you i would)…WOW…i have to say that the video really set up the song…i had them fade to black…turn off side screens…and have the scripture roll across our BIG center screen…i asked for a black screen with white letters…and the tech staff came through big time…i had several people tell me that it was a very powerful video…though it was VERY SIMPLE!!! the people responded well in both services…i can see this song becoming a church favorite very quickly…
sooo there you have it…
sunday setlists…LIVE…take five…

I love it when we debut a song and it’s a hit from the start. That’s great that it went well for you guys.
