Heard or Understood?

Many, many years ago, in another life, I had the opportunity to spend several years in a band playing the club circuit throughout South East Asia. As you would expect, there were often language barriers, which particularly bothered one of the guys. He would ask a shop owner a question in English and then, once it was established that the shop owner did not actually speak English, he would become quite irritated. [ 525 more words ]

One of those days

You ever have one of those days? You know what I'm talking about - the ones that just don't seem to be going your way. The days when things just seem to be falling apart; around you, within you, despite your best efforts, or maybe even because of you. It feels like I've been having 'one of those days' a lot lately.

The look of worship

It is said that while Michelangelo was painting the ceiling of the Sistine chapel, he read the Old Testament several times over so that his paintings would accurately reflect the words of Scripture and not rely on the current day church tradition or politics. At the end of the manuscript for ‘Messiah’, George Frideric Handel wrote the letters “SDG” – Soli Del Gloria, “ [ 505 more words ]

6 Ways to Practice More Effectively

Most of the time when I want to write about something, for this website or a sermon for example, I’ll spend time on the internet seeing what’s out there and interesting. I’m not looking to plagiarize! I just recognize that there are some great and profound thoughts out there and I want to be knowledgeable when I communicate my own thoughts. [ 700 more words ]

Drums and Bass – The backbone of the band!

Hello everyone! This week I want to talk about drums and bass and the relationship they have within the mix. Without question the drums and bass are the backbone of music and that level of importance should directly translate to how much time and effort we as sound engineers put into their mix! The three main components we want to pay the most attention to in this… [ 654 more words ]

Communicate for Engagement

Congregational engagement is something we all pray for. Worship leaders love those moments when the church is singing out strong, hands are held high and the love for Jesus makes the air thick! One the other hand, if you've ever wondered why your congregation doesn't respond this way, it may be simply because you haven't asked. It's always important to remember the 'leader' part of the title of 'Worship Leader'. [ 383 more words ]

How will you respond?

Being a musician is an amazing gift and there are few experiences comparable to playing in a band with other musicians. When you have a group of people who share a common musical goal and who all take their roles in that goal seriously, amazing things happen. It's an incredible feeling when you are playing in a band that is tight and locked in and focused.

Sound operators ARE part of the band!

First off I'd like to say that here at Main Street Church we have grown so much in the last year in both the worship and sound departments. Worship at this church has never sounded better and that’s from a combination of yours and the worship team’s growth. As you know, we have more than one sound person on our team and everyone mixes slightly different, which is fine but my goal is to get us to the place that no one in the congregation can tell that there are different sound people week to week.

6 ways to be a better keyboard player

It’s a strange thing for many worship team members – that moment they make the transition from classical/traditional piano player to keyboard player. The instrument looks the same, plays the same but the sounds and the role are very different! Some people transition very well and some struggle. One thing is true though, we are all looking for ways to be better at our instrument. [ 845 more words ]
