Words of Encouragement
Dec 1, 2009 Devotions and Thoughts
When I was in college I was part of a ministry leadership team for a student ministry group. Each week we had a memory verse that we had to memorize and recite at our weekly meeting. These scriptures, ingrained in my head, have been helpful in different situations to offer comfort and encouragement.
Here is one I recited often over the past two weeks through our move to a new house.
“Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus”
~ Philippians 4:6-7

Requested Songs- College UM ARMY
May 25, 2009 Worship Planning
Last week I had the awesome privilege of leading worship for 170 people at College UM ARMY. Before heading to camp I had sent out a request for people to send me the songs they wanted to use during the week. Although I got very few beforehand, I got several requests in the request box during the week. Here are most of the songs that were requested during the week.
Better is One Day
Walk By Faith
Enough
If We Are The Body
Light The Fire
Open The Eyes Of MY Heart Lord
Forever
Alabaster Jar
Shout Unto God
Come Thou Fount
Prince of Peace (You Are Holy)
True Love
Don’t Feed the Bears
If We Are The Body
You Said
Sing to the King
Word of God Speak
Shout to the Lord
Beautiful Scandalous Night
I really enjoyed having the request box there because it gave me place for feedback and to see what songs they connect with.
Do you just choose the songs you are going to do, or do you have some way to get feedback in your services or camps?
