Song List and Comments by Hugh Osgood

Hugh Osgood visits The King's Church, Wisbech
On Sunday 15th September 2013, Hugh Osgood visited our church in Wisbech. It was a fantastic time of fellowship, friendship and ministry. He gave great encouragement to the church as well as to me personally.

I was leading the sung element of our worship that day and had no idea which songs to select as I had no idea what Hugh was going to be preaching about. So I prayed about it and as usual, God stepped in and it was brilliant!

Hugh even made some comments and a joke about the songs chosen before he started preaching (watch the first 2 minutes of the video here to see for yourself). He was complimentary about how there was a good balance of old and new songs, as well as the sensitivity with which they were lead.

So what did we sing? Check out the list . . .

The List

  • Build Your Kingdom Here - Rend Collective Experiment
  • 10,000 Reasons (Bless The Lord) - Matt Redman
  • Amazed (You Dance Over Me) - Jarred Anderson

  • Still - Hillsong
  • Cornerstone - Hillsong

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

Image
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
