what are you listening to right now. what’s on your ipod? what’s the last song you heard? what music is speaking to you right now? what tune has been playing in your head all day?
let’s hear it.

ten days of christmas surveys

last year i was real lame at keeping my promise to upload a new christmas song for each day of advent…totally inconsistent, and pretty inconsiderate in my choices, as well…not thinking of you, the reader.
in order to make up for that, i’m going to take ten christmas music surveys. one every day from now [...]

memorial day monday music

i always thought this song was a beautiful, tragic tribute to all those who have lost their lives in combat, although this song is specifically about vietnam. today’s selection is goodnight saigon by billy joel. don’t forget the reason why you get to take the day off and grill out and get slosh [...]

wednesday worship

happy wednesday, everybody. (it seems that there are only five of you, and four out of five of you stay updated through a feed reader…see here if you wonder what in the world i’m talking about…) a new feature of wednesday worship posts will be the previous sunday’s set list. on sunday, [...]

wednesday worship

this is a special gift to my peeps. they played this song at buckhead church on easter, and it was an unbelievable experience. the guy who wrote it is called john mark mcmillan. he’s got a raw beauty in his music that is really warm, and he’s a rockstar of a lyricist. [...]

sunday night after church…overwhelmed

anyway, just as i was about to log on, ella started crying. so gretchen goes in there for a minute [...]

wednesday worship

as i’m going through the list of songs this church knows the other day, gretchen says, “you haven’t done ‘hear our praises’ yet, have you?” well, the first thought that entered my head (being honest, now) was not “ooh! great idea! why didn’t i think of that?!”
not that i don’t like the [...]

monday music

like last week’s “wednesday worship,” this may or may not be a weekly occurrence on my blog, but there’s a song i’ve had in my head since it came up in shuffle mode on my ipod on thursday afternoon. it’s by a band called the koo. you have never heard of them, unless [...]

interesting

what do you think?

sunday night after church

here goes…
1. church was very fun today. my friend joe noonen was the guest preacher, the music was loud, the spirit’s presence in the place was off the hook. i look forward to some more days like that.
2. uncle bill (he’s not really my uncle, but he’s an awesome dude.) painted [...]
