Solo No One Can Hear It

Monday, June 8th, 2009
This morning was awesome.  xjbk-00007I don't know if anyone else thought so.  But I sure did.  As a worship leader it gets really easy to get caught up in the "job".  But this morning something happened during the worship set that shook me out of that and made me connect in a way that I haven't in a while.  Justin, our lead guitar player, kicked into a wicked solo.  Now, I know he does… Read More

The Party

Monday, December 10th, 2007
We had a Christmas party last night. It was called the mysteriously ugly Christmas. Everyone came in ugly Sweaters. The person with the ugliest sweater won a prize. I won, you can see why. I have to say I really enjoyed it. It was a great time of just getting to know people and hear a little bit of their stories. I think that is the most important part of who we are as a christian community. Relationships. Or at least it should be. Without the building of relationships, the church would die because it wouldn't grow. If you're not growing then you're not healthy. You can't be. Healthy things grow. I think that we are on the right track in our… Read More

Oops, I did it again!!

Monday, November 19th, 2007
I've gotten quite used to screwing things up. It seems to be common place with me. Yesterday I totally screwed up one of the worship songs that we did. I played an extra beat on my guitar while the rest of the band was still on track. So I was a full beat behind the music, and I was singing a full beat behind the music. Because of that, the entire congregation was singing the song… Read More

What a Geek

Tuesday, November 13th, 2007
I love my church. Not because we're cool, cause we're not. Believe me. But becasuse we're real. We don't stand up there and try to be perfect, or try to give the illusion that we are. No, on sunday mornings I am anything but cool man. I'm a geek. I say things and do things that afterward I go home and think to myself, "I'm such a loser". But for some reason, it works.… Read More

RUIN

Saturday, November 3rd, 2007
Have you ever had the feeling that your whole life has come down one single moment. That you were made for one thing. I have. I feel like I'm living in that moment right now. Like my whole life, everything that has happened to me, all of my experiences, have brought me to this place where I stand right now. I feel like I was born for the specific purpose of being apart… Read More

TXC IDOL

Monday, April 23rd, 2007
Well today I got back from Mexico. I arrived at 3:00 in the morning and got home by 5:00. BRUTAL!!!! What really makes it all interesting is that I had to lead worship at church only two hours after we got home. It was interesting because I could not remember, for the life of me, what songs I had picked. I really had no clue what musicians were coming to play, and it had… Read More
