Today was one of those Sunday’s when it was great to gather with the people of God encouraging and being encouraged by others. Brad filled in for Pastor Mark today and God used him to stir our hearts and seek God’ forgiveness by nailing (literally) our confessed sins to the cross. Congregation participation revealed hearts responding to God. No new songs, no ambitious arrangements, just hearts and voices focused on the Lord. The planned acapella ending on To God Be the Glory allowed the congregation to sing out; the unplanned acapella ending on the last verse on In Christ Alone let the passion of the service overflow to the end. Here are the songs we sang:

have you heard tommy walker's "To God be the glory" version? He puts some really interesting chords in the chorus. I love the version he does on his "Breakthrough" album.
