Venture had a great morning all around. Our Pastor was out of town and Lorenzo (Associate Staff) brought a hard to hear but need to hear message. I played a little electric guitar and managed not too poop my pants from nervousness.(keys are more comfy for me)
Rich we did “Our God” last week for the first time. Great song. This week we did “Your Love Never Fails” for the first time I think it just struck a chord with a lot of people. Powerful song.
Our set list was:
Marvelous Light – Charlie Hall
Holding Nothing Back – Tim Hughes
Your Love Never Fails – Chris Quilala
We Are Hungry
Empty Me
Both services the band was super tight. Downside our mix was terrible. (we don’t have any true sound people, mostly slider babysitters). We are still struggling with our overall sound since we opened up our ceiling and hung our speakers.
Set List for us Sunday:
Holding nothing Back – Tim Hughes
Hosanna – Starfield Version
Let Your Mercy Rain – Tomlin
Only You – Crowder
King Of Glory – Tomlin
Surrender – Lincoln Brewster
Venture Easter was great We finished our auditorium remodel (Mostly) got rid of the drop ceiling, opened it up alot, hung the speakers so the sound is a huge improvement.
We themed the message around “Abundant Life” Set up the message with the Tyrone Wells song “More” Our numbers were up, lot’s of great feedback, hoping our follow up is strong.
Set List:
Filled With Your Glory – Starfield
Our King – Tree 63
Lost in The Wonder –
Come and Listen – Crowder
More – Tyrone Wells
Mighty to Save – Hill Song
A friend of mine came up from Orange County to play guitar. He’s one of my favorite musicians and his back up harmonies make anyone sound better!
We have been doing a “Preparing for Easter” series. today was about feeling what Jesus felt and how he wept for people. We did the Brandon Heath song “Give Me Your Eyes” with some video imagery in the back ground (that I finished about 4a.m. Sunday Morning!) The song was a lot of fun and I think really resonated with people.
Venture Set List:
Filled With Your Glory – Starfield
All Because of Jesus – Fee
Just to Be With You – Paul Baloche
All the Way My Savior Leads Me – Tomlin
Give Me Your Eyes – Brandon Heath
This Is Our God – Tomlin
Well I guess it was “National Have Someone Else Lead Day”. I too had one of our worship team lead this morning I just sat back and played keys. I have had him sing a song or two in various sets but this time he led the whole service and did a great job. No one even asked why I wasn’t leading which was great.
Our Set List:
Happy Day – Tim Hughes
Marvelous Light – Charlie Hall
For Who You Are – Hill Song
Surrender – Jeremy Camp
Awesome is The Lord Most High – Tomlin
Reign in Us – Starfield
We are introducing Cannons thisa coming Sunday. Pretty exited about it great song!
This past week we were limited with no electric guitars,I had hoped to just go acoustic and a cajon box for something different, however we stayed with full drums bass and acoustic. It came off better than expected.
Set List:
Everything Glorious – David Crowder
Blessed Be Your Name – Redman
All Creatures – Crowder version
In Christ Alone
For Who You Are – Hill Song
Forever – Tomlin
Kind of rules out hosting one of those “Murder Mystery” parties at your house.
I remember the story…had no idea it was your house. I understand where you are coming from. Look no further than all the CSI style shows to reveal our appetite for murder so the news is just trying to keep up with entertainment television.
Self proclaimed fan of the Modern Warfare 1, picking up the new one tomorrow. The only question I have for you Rich is Are you on Xbox live and if so what is your gamer tag?
That being said I do not let my kids watch or play this game. My oldest is 11 years old.
My friend Ruben who is an epic guitarist came to play for us. Great message about forgiving others. Many comments from people saying the same thing “I felt like that message was just for me”.
Set List
Let God Arise – Tomlin
Glory To God Forever – Fee Band
All Because Of Jesus – Fee Band
Jesus Be Glorified – Todd Proctor
Let The Praises Ring – Lincoln Brewster
Surrender – Jeremy Camp
The reason I would like to in is because Red Heads never win anything! By percentages we are lower in population therefore making our odds of winning small. Those days are gone, we will rise up and take our place among the winners and we give God the glory as we worship Him with Paul Baloche’s new Cd
I was blessed to be able to take some of our worship team up to lead worship for a family camp Friday thru Monday. Great time with the family and friends and an awesome opportunity to worship with a bunch of of other families from all over the place.
We had 9 baptisms this past Sunday…4 or 5 more coming up too!
It must have been kick thru the bass drum head day. Ours was actually broke before the service started. we had to do a pretty serious tape job on it and play light. Just replaced it today. We were only acoustic this Past Sunday which sometimes lacks a bit of zeal, but there was good energy.

We are in the 3rd week of our “1 month to live” series. Coming off the heels of a great Men’s retreat where God had a big impact on some lives. We are having a baptism service on may 17th and possibly some the following week. God is moving in the Valley!
