The truth hurts but it is not a sin..... I have always been fascinated by how jesus said what he had to say directly. He never seemed to worry about the other person feelings, he just said what he h…

Different worship styles

Rap doesn't work well in a regular sunday church service setting, unless all the memebers are 25 and under :-)

Worship: Are You Fit To Sing?

Vocal health is about mind and body as well as voice.

Singing praise and worship, whether on a team or in the choir, involves your whole body and mind as well as your voice. If you are unwell or your mind is on other matters, this can reflect in your vocal performance.

Whatever your vocal style or reportoire, you should take an holistic approach to your practising and peformance.

I found some great tips on the… Continue

Worship: Are You Really Prepared for Ministry?

Does this blog hit home or have i got it wrong? Leave your thoughts and comments below



The thought of 'ministry' can be very scary. If you spend too long thinking about it; the responsiblity, the committment, the realisation that 'this is beyond my human power', all the emotions that come with it can be overwhelming.



The idea that God would choose you, alone can be difficult to digest.



But you pull yourself together enough to acknowleged that 'it is… Continue

Worship: Are You Cracking Under The Pressure?

I have been a practising Christian now for nearly 20 years and most of my formative years was in spent in a Pentecostal church trying to find my feet, both in Christ and in church.

And mostly if you could hum a note back you could join the choir. The natural progression from the choir… Continue

Hi Dionne, thanks for your friend request - accepted.

I could probably do with some vocal training. It's great what you do.

If you like flamboyant, catchy music then please check out my site: www.chrismedway.com featuring my new CD "All Aboard the Heaven Express". I'm doing a special thing at the moment where if you order a CD before Easter then I'll enclose a KitKat Bunny in the package. Irresistable!!

Dionne - great work raising the money for Haiti.
Sounds like the Lord has been using your voice and willing heart for his purposes! I always wished I could sing, but I guess that's something you are born with or not.
I hope one day to hear you sing!
God bless,
David
