Not good. We need to remember that these are real people.

She's not a bad singer, it's just not a good style (imo).

Exactly!


She IS talented! Thiis same woman who is being ridiculed also wrote the lyrics to the song, "Didnt I Walk On The Water". IMO....It is a BEAUTIFUL song!!




Didn't I Walk On The Water


As I kneel in the darkness in the middle of the night,
I'm praying for assurance everything's gonna be alright.
Lord I see another battle out in front of me
and I'm afraid I won't be able and I'll go down in defeat.

And He said, I walked on the water and I calmed the raging sea.
I spoke to the wind, it hushed and I gave you peace.
Didn't I run to your rescue didn't I hear you when you called,
I walked right beside you just so you wouldn't fall.
Didn't I leave all of Heaven just to die for your sin.
I searched until I found you and I'd do it all again.

He said, do you remember where I brought you from.
Just take a look behind you at how far you've come.
And everytime you asked me, didn't I deliver you,
so why would you be thinking that I wouldn't see you through.

And He said, I walked on the water and I calmed the raging sea.
I spoke to the wind, it hushed and I gave you peace.
Didn't I run to your rescue didn't I hear you when you called,
I walked right beside you just so you wouldn't fall.
Didn't I leave all of Heaven just to die for your sin.
I searched until I found you and I'd do it all again.

Now she's talking to her father in a house that was once a home.
She said my bills are coming due Lord and six days is not that long.
She hears a voice so still and low, it says I've moved like that before
and I'll do this little thing and I'll give you so much more

And He said, I walked on the water and I calmed the raging sea.
I spoke to the wind, it hushed and I gave you peace.
Didn't I run to your rescue didn't I hear you when you called,
I walked right beside you just so you wouldn't fall.
Didn't I leave all of Heaven just to die for your sin.
I searched until I found you and I'd do it all again.

But I don't think she is. From the appearance on Youtube, and the numerous videos of her doing basically the same thing, she seems to be fairly well marketing it, not humiliated by it.

If someone posted it on facebook to say - look how horrible this is! - that would be humiliating for her.

Are people saying she's horrible? It seems like people are laughing at all the carrying on that goes with the singing. And from my experience in that culture, people like her are proud of that. If someone laughs, it's just another feather in their cap.

Earlier in this thread, someone mentioned that videos of her were passed around quite some time ago, and it appears she's still at it. Doesn't seem like she's effected by the giggles.

But maybe you're right. Maybe she should log on and tell us what she thinks!

For the record, though (that's always a funny statement....like someone reading this is keeping a record of what I say), I'm not laughing, mocking, giggling, or making fun of her. I just don't like it. I think this kind of buffoonery contributes to the driving away of people who need the grace of Jesus Christ.

I don't personally care for that type of church myself, but yes, it did seem to me that the purpose for people posting the video was to say how awful it was. Not just the worship, but the singing, too.

It's all in the perception, I guess.
