My takeaway from the sermon this morning is that the worship of fools is focusing on what I like in worship instead of asking what pleases God in worship and doing that.
The music went smoothly this morning with our normal excellent congregational response. The team played an sang well; Brad is doing an outstanding job of improving our platform mix (a trouble spot for us).
I’m still mastering the foot pedal on my iPad, so I had to quickly back up on Speak, O Lord as I accidentally double-clicked and went from page 1 (verse 1) to page 3 (verse 3). I’m not sure anyone noticed. I also spent some extra practice time at home on Spirit to get consistent with the foot pedal page turning while I am pattern-picking the song, and the extra work paid off. It sure is nice not to be shuffling paper on my music stand and to have the larger text! More thoughts on using the iPad are here: iPad in Worship.
