Are we doing Church right?

Are we doing Church right? What do I mean by this you may ask, let me explain my thoughts. I have two points. First one being why do we have to have our church buildings in darkness full of coloured lighting during commencement  of a service. The band comes on and strikes the first chord and the worship leader begins. We are fed that we have to have this use click tracks in order to worship God in this way. I have my concerns about this, is there a need for this or are we just following a trend because it's the cool thing to do. Is it real worship or a show? Dont get me wrong there are times and places for the coloured lights ect in a concert but is this nescearry for our Church services? Worship isn't music in itself it's just a part, as a worship leader some of the most precious times is a simple guitar and singer leading worship can be more  powerful than all the lights click tracks ect. Here is my point shouldn't our focus be on God not the stuff that we are...

A need for Biblical Praise & Worship in the Church.

I write this because I see a decline in good solid Worship and praise songs. As a Worship leader and singer songwriter, I dont always sing or teach the worship team the most popular song making it's way around churches. I check the lyrics and lay it up with the Scripture. So many times alot of the songs we sing are woolly with no depth. I myself with my song writer always try  to write the truth of Gods Word. This comes with spending time in God's word and prayer, I am giving you my a reader a challenge check out the songs you are singing in your church, then if there are things not adding up. Write a fresh biblical worship song. I believe there  is something special when we sing scripture its powerful. Recently I wrote a song based on Psalm 86 it's not a typical bless me song but speaks of despair and the joy hope, the reality of living in the world.  I am releasing a new album this song will feature on it. Lyrics below Psalm 86 Listen to me Oh Lord For I am poo...

Not About Us   The Album The Story behind the Songs For this short blog I have decided to give a short story of why I wrote the songs and how they where written. Track 1 "Cry Out" Cry Out was written on 17th March 2013 I was spending time in worship, and began to pray I felt I was crying out to God, I thought of the church but also persecuted Christians and began to write the song, It was written in a matter of mins. So in short the song is really a prayer. I know many have been blessed by the song and it was also aired on Television. I pray as you listen you make a prayer unto the Lord and put others first before ourselves. I have included the lyrics and a video link of the song. Cry Out Can You Hear Me calling out to you Can You see me I'm Falling on my knees I am longing for more and more of you I need you I need your touch right now (chorus) I cry out freedom for your people I cry out send your power today I cry out freedom for your people I cry out set...
