Easter Sunday Setlist


I don't know about you, but I really had a great time over the Easter weekend break. Our church joined with others in the Churches Together Walk of Witness through Wisbech, my local town. I did my multi-media thing and took photos and video of the event, posting it on the church blog and YouTube. It even made the local papers! It was also a great time of family and friends - very busy, but very good!

Of course the highlight was Easter Sunday. As we were reminded at chruch - without Jesus rising ffrom the dead, Christianity would be a pointless waste of time! The resurrection of Christ is of central importance to the entirity of what Christianity is. Jesus is alive! If he was not, we would not be able to hear his voice / sense his promptings and direction in our lives today, we would have no hope of life after death - of heaven and God's promises fulfilled, we would loose our sense of purpose and destiny of our lives on this earth - without the resurrection and the promise of eternal life, why bother?

Anyway, I was leading worship on Easter Sunday. I wanted to start at the cross, but then move swiftly on to celebrating Jesus' resurrection. Here is my setlist that includes some cracking Easter songs (excuse the egg-celent pun!)

Setlist:

Jesus Christ I Think Upon Your Sacrifice (Once Again) - Matt Redman - E
Resurrection Hymn (See What A Morning) - Stuart Townend & Keith Getty D
All The Earth Will Sing Your Praises - Paul Baloche - F
You're Alive, You're Alive - unsure of the author - F (capo5 - C)
Saviour of the World - Matt McChlery, Anna mith, Dave Nurney - G Audio here
All Heaven Declares - Noel & Tricia Richards - G
In Christ Alone - Stuart Townend, Keith Getty - Ab (Capo1 D)

Snot and Tears

Image
I have just realised that I only began blogging about my journey with cancer since the diagnosis. There was a period of time while I was waiting for the diagnosis where God did some pretty amazing things and in a way prepared me to cope with what was to come. So I think I will tell you about it here - just so you can see the whole picture, including the snot and tears!

Are You a F.A.T Leader?

Image
It was some years ago now that I listened to a sermon that has firmly placed itself within my mind and has grown to become one of the cornerstones to my attitude and lifestyle of leadership. In the sermon, the preacher was referring to how we should approach living our Christian lives, but it applies itself equally well to leadership. The acronym F.A.T. was used to highlight 3 key points: F - Faithful Faithfulness can manifest itself in many different ways. Are we faithful to our church and its leaders? Do we contradict any gossip we may hear going on? Do we faithfully attend church functions even when we don't feel like doing so sometimes? Are we faithful to the people we lead? Do we turn up to band practise on time / turn up to help set up the room before a meeting? Do we model the behaviour, dedication and commitment we would like to see in others? Most importantly, are we faithful to God? Do we have a secret lifestyle or habit that contradicts our Christian faith? Will

Worship Setlist for the New Year

As we enter into a New Year it is an obvious and natural position to ask God what he has in store for the coming year for you personally, and for your church. When selecting a setlist of worship songs for my church, whether it is for a special New Year's eve service where we welcome the New Year in together, or if it is just the first Sunday of the New Year when the whole church is gathering together, I think it is important to ask God if there is a specific song he has in mind for the coming season for your church. This song could be along the obvious lines of 'New Year = New Season' with a sense that we are moving into something new with God, we are progressing in our relationship with Him and becoming more like Him as we grow together in Christ. However, this is not necessarily the case. This year, for 2016 I believe God is moving my church through a transition. A time of pruning has begun and in the coming months we will need to navigate this change and challenge
