Weekend that was

Don't know about you but I had a great weekend. Started off Friday with another date night with Tammy and the other couples from our small group then got to sleep in on Saturday for the first time in well over a month which was very nice and very much needed. Got up and went with Tammy to Winchester then took off on over to Union City for a little stint on the radio. I did the noon to 3 Saturday afternoon show for the first time in a while and it was fun. I really enjoy going over there and helping out, now I won't lie I like doing the Friday night stuff the best because its more my style of music but the weekday and Saturday thing is still fun plus it is a more organized thing with everything already planned out for you.

Learned a good lesson on Saturday afternoon early evening, never take Taylor, a friend of hers, and Tyson shopping at the same time. She don't like the stores he likes and vice versa so that makes for a long shopping trip. Plus she had $10 but kept looking at stuff that was more than that, sometimes well more than that. Finally she found something so all was not lost.

What a day yesterday. Jeff once again brought it, and for the most part we on the worship team did as well. I think Jeff is getting more and more comfortable giving the messages, good job Jeff. Tammy invited her brother and his wife again and they came and a friend of ours from Columbus also came to join us yesterday, it was really cool having them there and I hope that they all come back again, soon, got that Aub, bring Roy next time too ok. Still not pleased with the little solo but our little surprise at the end with the false ending went real well. Let God Arise is one of those songs that get people fired up, there have been a few that do that, Mighty To Save, Days Of Elijah, Shout Unto God, and more. Got even more surprises next week if it will work, little hint-you'll be able to see what I'm talking about if you watch online or get a dvd of the service.
Song List:
Everlasting God - Chris Tomlin/Lincoln Brewster (This was a good opener)
From The Inside Out- Hillsong United (Better than last time but still struggled through the solo)
Oh The Wonderfull Cross - Micheal W. Smith
Shout To The Lord - Hillsong (Did anyone else notice how loud this one was?)
My Hope Is In You - Thrid Day
Let God Arise - Chris Tomlin (read above, got to rock out a little on this one which in my book is always a good thing, you know "worship at full volume")

Hey Derek - I loved the service yesterday. I wish I could duplicate your church down here in Columbus. Our church has a great worship team, but you guys really knock it out. I love it!. The enthusiam was wonderful. We are headed back to Muncie the end of October so I'll be back & I'll make sure to bring Roy with me too. Thank you for letting me visit again. Any more guitar solo's coming up? We would love to see you out front!!
