Incredible album. We have been doing several songs from it, and one of the ways we learn parts here and there is by watching these videos. They are pedagogical as well as worshipful! Are they gradually being released to YouTube? Specifically, we are beginning to learn "We Hunger and Thirst," and hope there is a video to be released. It helps the guitarist, for example, to see fingerings and positions. OK, let me be truthful - it helps ME to see such things! Our church and my family are both indebted to SG Worship. Thank you for helping to shape our worship. Barry Joslin Louisville, KY Bob/SGM,

]]> Comment on Can Christian Musicians Play Secular Music for God’s Glory? by Jim http://www.worshipmatters.com/2008/01/18/can-christian-musicians-play-secular-music-for-gods-glory/comment-page-1/#comment-41490 Jim Mon, 06 Feb 2012 19:17:47 +0000 http://www.worshipmatters.com/2008/01/can-christian-musicians-play-secular-music-for-gods-glory/#comment-41490 I'm not a worship leader, but feel this is a group that I would like to present my question to. I am a 56 year old christian man. I rededicated my life to Christ @ the age of 37. I've been a guitar player since the age of 4. I learned to play lead guitar by spending hour everyday as a teen setting in front of the turntable with my Santana albums. I played in classic rock bands for years. At the age of 26, I left the band scene when my first child was born. I wanted to spend time with my boys, not playing in the bars on the weekend. As I said, I rededicated my life to Christ @ 37. Now my boys are grown, and I have the desire to be playing Classic Rock in a band again. Some friends lost the guitar player in their band, so I told them I'd set in a while to help them cover the gigs they already had booked. They asked me to stay on full time, but I'm struggling with playing in bars and clubs like VFW and American Legions. I don't drink or smoke and I'm faithful to my wife. I just love to perform classic rock to a local audience. My question is: As a good christian man, is it sinful for me to perform in these venues? Inside I feel that our entertainment in these venues draws people into these establishments and the bar scene lifestyle. This is really pulling my heart in 2 direction. I love the Lord with all my heart, and I love playing classic rock to a live audience. These are the only type of venues around our small town to perform in. I hope someone out there can give me direction and hopefully some scripture to support it. God will come first, no matter what decision I have to make. God Bless you all, and I hope to hear something soon. I've told the band I'll need to leave by the end of the month, because of my conviction to Christ. Thank you in advance for all of your advise and direction. I’m not a worship leader, but feel this is a group that I would like to present my question to. I am a 56 year old christian man.

Over the years I haven't found that pages sag on the non-ring side, unless you have too may songs for a notebook. We print off songs each Sunday, and keep a smaller folder of songs for more spontaneous use. Susan, thanks for your encouragement.

A bit of a strange question, though. Do you store all your lead sheets in ringbinders? Do the pages tend to sag on the non-ring side? (I've been given the monumental task of organising the shambles which is our church's music.) Hi Bob,
