Recap: This week was the beginning of a new era for Sunridge Community Church. Britt Sipe, our Interim Pastor brought it home with a message about change: Change Happens. The room was electric and once again I heard our people sing out, shout out and participate. God is about to do something very special during this season of transition. We are so fortunate to have a leader like Britt take us through this time.

Today I had a friend and fellow worship leader from Orange, CA sit in with us and co-lead the worship music. Chad Markley for his day job owns a consulting business in the technology field. It was a treat to have a friend of mine come in and our church was blessed by his leadership. Thanks Chad!

Another element of interest this week was a bumper video for the sermon with a series of pictures of Mel Gram’s life from birth to today.

Set List: This week was about change and the hope was that our songs would reflect the words we needed to sing to God during this season.

• Everybody Praise the Lord – Lincoln Brewster
• Glory to God Forever – Fee Band
• You Never Let Go – Matt Redman
• Jesus Messiah – Chris Tomlin
• Everlasting God – Brenton Brown

Worship Recap:

This morning we had Britt Sipe teach as Greg was gone celebrating his anniversary. (Congrats to him and Robin!). Britt talked about penguins…or, you are just gonna have to listen to the podcast.

My daughter helped lead this morning with me, taking lead on the last part of the worship set and rousing us to celebrate our King with “Sing to the King”.  Emilie loves leading worship and it is awesome to see your child grow into leadership in anything, but especially in ministry!

Set List:

We introduced a new song by Lincoln Brewster, “Let Your Glory Shine” which really grooved. Again, Sunridge is so blessed to have a worship team like we do!

• Let Your Glory Shine – Lincoln Brewster
• Salvation is Here – Hillsong United
• O Worship The King – Kristian Stanfill Chris Tomlin
  
• Sing to the King – Billy Foote/Candy Pearon
• You Are My King – Billy Foote

Worship Recap: Daylight Savings Time and women’s retreat gave us an opportunity this weekend to address what it would be like for 60 or so families to get ready with only dad at home and the rest of us up early. We decided to put coffee and donuts in the services and to give a 10 minute late start. The 10 minutes were really an extended time of greeting and the countdown clock helped. By the time we started singing, people were actually ready. It worked, as far as I am concerned. We made a typically low Sunday feel more energetic and fun. Kudos to Greg and our hospitality and planning teams.

Worship Set List:

• Every Day – Hillsong United
• Let God Arise – Chris Tomlin
• How Beautiful the Blood – Steve Fee
• Glorious – Steve Fee

Worship Recap: Greg is still preaching on The Sermon On The Mount, challenging us to be more like Jesus in mercy, thoughtfulness and  and to be bold in our prayers. Our music time was complimented with partaking in communion.

One funny thing, my keyboard had an intermittent failure during the first hour. Apparently, a battery is in need of replacement which caused the issue. I fixed it with a setting change between services, thankfully.

Worship Set List: This week we introduced another song from Steve Fee, “How Beautiful the Blood”

• Awesome Is The Lord Most High – Tomlin
• Glorious One – Fee
• Amazing Grace (My Chains) – Tomlin
• Black and Blue is My Heart – Kirkpatrick
• How Beautiful the Blood – Fee

How was your worship weekend?

RECAP: This was our third installment of “Change”–Greg brought it home with a challenge about what audience we really are hoping to please: Jesus, or the crowd. My voice was nearly gone due to laryngitis this Sunday, but Ben co-led and did great as did our whole band. I have to say that Mike is the best worship band leader I have ever worked with, including myself. He loves the guys and gals and inspires us with his dedication and passion for worship.

SET LIST: Ben co-led worship with me, taking the lead on “Not To Us” and “Audience of One.” Not just because I enjoy being led by Ben or Bob or other worship leaders, I really think he–in a good way–out shined me. I needed support due to vocal problems, but Ben took it further really helping lead this morning. Thanks Ben!

• Hosanna – Paul Baloche
• Not To Us – Chris Tomlin
• Cry Out Your Name – Jeff & Karol Moore
• The Greatest Gift – Rich Kirkpatrick
• Audience of One – Big Daddy Weave

Recap: This week we started a series of sermons called “Bounce: Life after impact.” Job’s life was examined in light of what times our church and community lives in today. I am looking forward to how this series plays itself out and how God in general is going to use the hard economic times to shape all of us.

Set List: We focused the set of music on putting our source in the right place. “Be my source, me my light, Jesus.”

• Let It Rise – Holland Davis
• Awesome Is The Lord Most High – Cary Pierce, Chris Tomlin, Jesse Reeves, Jon Abel
• A Thousand Hallelujahs – Mark Roach
• You Pray For Me – Rich Kirkpatrick
• Be The Centre – Michael Frye

Recap: Sunday at Sunridge was yet another week in our Give Love Away series.  The connection between loving God and others was explained.  Is loving God enough?  One highlight Sunday was a report from the Nepal missions team.  The team planted churches last year as well as this year.  Over 100 people came to Christ since then with people hearing the name of “Jesus” for the first time.

Set List: Our songs this weekend were meant to encourage our congregation to act in love.  Here are the tunes.

• Today is the Day – Lincoln Brewster
• All to You – Lincoln Brewster, Reid McNulty
