Song writing in worship

1. A man got in a ship wreck. His wife and him survived, but his child did not. He thought to himself about peace, and how God is in control. "It is well with my soul." This became a song that has lasted for decades, influencing people.
2.The role of a song writer is to write songs that express our love to God, amidst our real world experiences.
3. Songs also have theological purpose.
4. The songs we sing in church affect Tye way we think about God more than what we hear.
5. We write because we need to use the language of words in music to have conversations with God. 6. Songwriters also write for the community.
7. The encounters we have with God bring us closer to him.
8. Almost anything can inspire one to write a song.
9. There are many ways songwriters can use to capture that moment of inspiration.
10. Songwriting can be just plain hard work, called writers work.

Next years worship team encouragement

        Dear Future team. You should know that participation in this team will bring much more joy than you are expecting. You have been presented with an exciting opportunity to lead a complete student body in worshiping of the Lord. Not only do few students get the opportunity to join such a team, but also few students posses the talents that you do. Cooperation will be key. Be agreeable, and flexible. Be respectful. Practice and do your very best, and you will provide great music. Sincerely, Edward Vertin.

Quality worship leading

        There is very much to be done in order to be a quality worship leader. One must appear very genuine, and engaged in the music to start. This is important to draw in the congregation, to become moved by the Holy Spirit by the music. Being energetic is also very important as a worship leader to show excitement for the music of God. Being a quality worship leader can only be achieved with God's help.
     
        I watched Forgiven by David Crowder. This video showed David Crowder leading the passion conference. David seems to be a very engaged worship leader, appearing very genuine. David draws in the crowd with his body motions, and is very envolved in the music. The music was very intense in the video and the crowd seemed very much engaged. Overall, David was an effective worship leader for the passion conference.
