Each Friday I’ll share various servings and helpings of great content I’ve come across during the week. Gobble it up, put it in the crockpot of your mind and let it simmer, or put it on the back burner for a while. Here it is:
Convicting and Challenging:
- Mark Altrogge of The Blazing Center urges us not to worry about our “ministry” but to take care of the depth of our character.
- Sheila Gregoire of To Love, Honor, and Vacuum shares some thoughts on why modesty is not only important, but necessary.
- Sarah Mae from Like a Warm Cup of Coffee shares a video that discusses why more churches need to be youth-led instead of having youth programs.
Praying for Others
- Especially for worship leaders: Chris Vacher of Chris from Canada shares how he uses Twitter and the #WorshipSet hashtag used there to pray for other worship leaders.
- Ashley Pichea lets us know how to pray for our government leaders and our country.
For Worship Leaders
- Right in time with my thoughts on 6 ways to honor leaders in your life, Bob Kauflin of Worship Matters dissects how to handle submission between the worship leader and senior pastor.
- Fred McKinnon shares some good thoughts on why you need a worship/creative/planning team.
Lutherans Love to Sing
- This is an enjoyable post of words from Garrison Keillor from Kristen at Joyfully Thriving: “I do believe this: people, these Lutherans, who love to sing in four-part harmony are the sort of people you could call up when you’re in deep distress. If you’re dying, they’ll comfort you. If you’re lonely, they’ll talk to you. And if you’re hungry, they’ll give you tuna salad!”
