RECAP: Staci Frenes was our guest worship leader and artist this past Sunday. Its safe to say that Sunridge loves Staci! Her songwriting and singing are known quantities to me over the years but I also learned how adept she is at leading people into worship. Since I was preaching, it was a treat to be led in worship be Staci and our Worship Band.

To watch the sermon or download the sermon notes, go here. You might find it interesting that I had people sign up for twitter during my sermon. Check it out.

I am going to post on Tuesday a special video blog interviewing Staci. Her new CD Meteor is outstanding! I will give you some behind the scenes about it.

How was your worship weekend? What did God speak to you about?

Recap: It was nice to be back in the saddle after a weekend off the previous Sunday. I love this team! We had to deal with rehearsal being canceled due to a brush fire near our building that caused us to be evacuated and the holiday weekend. The powerhouse nature of our music team, video, lighting and audio people allowed our services to come off relatively smoothly given our challenges. We even had to strike the stage and it was done within 25 minutes! Did I say I love this team already?

Our set included a response songs to Britt’s message “May the Words of My Mouth” which was a good change. I “officiated” the communion time and did better the second service. Don’t we all do better second service?

Set List:

• All To You – Lincoln Brewster
• Because of Your Love – Paul Baloche
• Beautiful the Blood – Steve Fee
• Came to My Rescue – United Hillsongs
• May the Words of My Mouth – Tim Hughes

How was your worship weekend? I sure would love to hear from you and any thoughts about our worship service shown on the above video.

Recap: I was in Las Vegas so I hope some of my Sunridge peeps will speak up about what went down. But, my daughter helped lead with Bob and Brent and the video is pretty good! I missed my Sunridge fix, but had a great time at Central Christian in Henderson, NV. At Central they also did Hossana, by the way, and their worship leader Ariel reminded me of my daughter.

How many of you filled up swear jars in prep for Britt’s message this week?

Thanks to Bob for taking lead! And, way to go Brent. Good to see you vocally lead.

Setlist:

• O Praise Him – David Crowder
• Here Is Our King – David Crowder
• Hosanna – Brooke Frasier
• Blessed Be The Name – Matt Redman

How was your worship weekend. Please share what you think of our video, too.

RECAP: This weekend at the Sunridge we continued our “Give Love Away” theme.  Again, the song “God of this City” seemed to stir things up.  The idea of reaching the city seemed refreshing to the things we usually sing in worship services at our church.  In our services we reminded people that God is good…all the time.  No matter where our stock portfolio hits or how we might feel, God is good.  It may sound simple, but really being reminded of this powerful truth part of why coming to worship services week after week is important.

SETLIST: Of course, the “You Are Good” tune as done by Lincoln Brewster led us into the idea of God’s goodness.  We sandwiched it around our welcome and greeting time.  Here are the songs from this week.

• Your Grace Is Enough – Matt Maher
• You Are Good – Israel Houghton
• Because of Your Love – Brenton Brown, Paul Baloche
• Majesty – Martin Smith, Stuart Garrard
• God of This City – Aaron Boyd, Richard Bleakley, Ian Jordan, Andrew McCann, Peter Kernaghan, Peter Comfort

How was your worship weekend?  What song hit you?
