Re:Create 2009 Conference

We met with Randy Elrod about the 2009 Re:Create Conference yesterday. If you are not aware of this conference, it's a select group of worship leaders and worship directors from influential churches in the US and abroad.

WorshipTogether will be sponsoring a night of the conference with dinner and a surprise worship leader. We've done this the last 2 years and it is always a wonderful time of worship and encouragement.

If you want to be stretched as a leader and be on the cutting edge of the technology that can impact your ministry, you should check it out at http://seekersolutions.typepad.com/recreate/.

They cap the conference at around 125 so if you are interested, sign up soon.

Daniel Doss Band at NWLC

Life as an artist is not all glam and fun. If you've ever talked to bands that travel, you know what these folks go through to play a 25 minute set for us to enjoy.

Daniel Doss and his band were schedule to fly out of Nashville at 8 pm on Thursday. The flight was delayed several times and ended up leaving at 2:30 am on Friday, which put them in Austin at 4:30 am. Since the flight was late, the rental car company was closed when they arrived. So they had to grab a cab to the hotel.

After 4 hours of sleep, Daniel and Derek (guitar) had to be at radio station KPEZ at 9:30 am to sing a 4 song acoustic set for the station's webcast.

Then it was back to the hotel to collect the rest of the band and head to lunch.

The band had a sound check at 2:30 pm and led their worship set at 3:30. They packed up and jumped in a shuttle back to the airport for a 6:30 pm flight back to Nashville and then an hour drive home to Clarksville, TN.

The worship set was incredible and the guys did an amazing job considering the lack of rest.

So the next time you feel whinny about having to do an 8:30 am Sunday morning service, remember your brothers and sisters out on the road.

New Song Cafe LIVE with Rush Of Fools

We had a great New Song Cafe LIVE seminar with Rush Of Fools today here in Austin. They did an incredible job teaching and telling the story behind some of their songs including "Undo", "When Our Hearts Sing" and the brand new "Wonder Of The World".

Jimi and I also had the chance to introduce Chris Tomlin's new song, "Jesus Messiah" to the group as well. If you haven't heard it yet, head over to WorshipTogether.com and you'll find everything you need learn and lead the song.
