Thad,

They did a fine job singing that song. I clicked on the Praise Break video and enjoyed watching your church shout.

I love watching the director!

Big mouths? I don't understand how you watch someone shout and not hear them shout? :ursofunny

Man...that tambourine player is really getting with it!

That was what I thought while watching that video. I would imagine if not under the annointing your hand would really smart after playing for that period of time.

Too much cut hair for me. And on the platform? Oh my!

AWESOME! That is the kind of music I grew up with! :largehalo

What are you talking about? Most likely new converts! ;)

Doesn't matter.

You prefer men with long hair?

Brother,

Newman probably was right that they were new converts. Any church that has a burden for souls will have many people in the congregation that look the same way.

I don't prefer men.

Seriously, I love to see new converts up front. It's super cool.

Thad, I know this doesn't apply to you because I have seen your choir, I have seen their passion, and I have witnessed your reasonable expectations and anti-tyranical leadership.

I have heard folks (well...leadership) in the church and in the office as well call certain things "theirs"...my this and my that, and really it makes me rather nauseous. There is no vision and mission among the workers if the leader is a narcissisist who believes that people are only stepping stones to help them achieve noteriety, praise and whatever else.

Especially in the church, nothing is me or mine, it is the Lords, and not subject to be lorded over. My praise singers, my choir, my sound men, my ushers, my sunday school teachers, my ministers, my saints, my church...


...glory to God.

What!!!!

Why is it that the fellas up front are rarely there for more than a couple of months or so...could it be that no one is able to maintain that level of emotional intensity...that is sooo cool, so they end up learning how to be either on the moon emotionally or in the cellar...with no in between.

I pulled this out of the "How to kill a new convert manual."

:D

Any church that doesn't legislate ridiculous extra-biblical rules of men would have even more of the same...


:tease

Maybe they are still there....they just look different by a 50 pounds or so :ursofunny

Carpenter- Little bit fussy today, huh? .... If someone posted from this board had been singing in the choir; they would have introduced this film as "my choir."

Just as someone says "my school," or "my church." They aren't claiming ownership; merely membership. :cool:

I agree with your statement and that is why I respect the leadership @ Life Tabernacle so much. They don't preach standards instead they let the Lord deal with the individual. Furthermore, they don't discriminate against those congregants with different levels of personal convictions. It's a very nice mix of people to worship with on Sundays.

Not fussy here. Maybe this is one of those psychological triggers that people keep telling me about. :D

Please read that I did not put Thad in the same category as others in leadership who actually believe that people do not matter, people are only the means by which I can accomplish what I set out to do...and most of the time so that I can receive the noteriety (notice I didn't say glory)...or the narcissistic belief that I am do everything so that I can give Glory to the Lord and not as a collective body.

There are people like this all over the place with saints stuck to the bottom of their shoe like a piece of gum.

Again, I am not being fussy or bitter, this is just the way things are sometimes...it is the same in business, sporting teams, etc. It is not exclusive to the church...but it happens there where the standard and expectation should be a little higher.

HA! Thad invited me to sing there...that should at least tell you something!

:D

ThAd dO yOU hAvE mE On iGNoRe???????



:shockamoo :shockamoo :shockamoo :smack

Thad, I enjoyed your choir, but where do you get Scripture for telling the congregation to scream? :)

Hey thats alright!:thumbsup

Cool church Thad, Wish I was there!:thumbsup

Excellent question!

are you serious Newman ?? I need to know what church you grew up in:thumbsup I had no idea you was into gospel music

you are not serious

where ? on the song "ride on king Jesus " ??

tell me where I can can then probably explain

thanks COOP. we could use an extra Bass Player!
you ought to come out. we have more choirs then we know what to do with and not enough musicians! and man do we have fun playing and practicing! :thumbsup

Where is the church, California?

Yep- the church life out here is good

don't pay no mind to what you hear about the church politics- Calif. could not live if they didnt have a good rukus going on we don't pay them any mind:ursofunny

:eek:

Same church many years ago... different times and choir directors. I think one generally remembers and loves the songs of their youth. :largehalo

I'm just ribbin ya Thad. Someone was shouting during the song somewhere near the end to scream. I don't know who it was who was saying it. Keep up the good work!

i erased that post thinking i got the wrong song

Loved it Thad! Awesome! :bliss

ummm i dont recall that but perhaps. i know we often say "let us shout unto the LOrd with a voice of Triumph" - could have been a concert setting
