Happy New Year, Etc.
Posted on January 6th, 2006 in Cool Stuff, Family, Old-General, Podcasts & Updates by Fred McKinnon
Hey Ya’ll -
phew – I’ll have to make this one quick … so much happening – but have to take off for a wedding!
Let’s see – HAPPY NEW YEAR, now that we’re nearly 1 full week into 2006. We spent most of New Year’s Eve in the EMERGENCY ROOM at St. Joseph’s in Savannah, GA with our 3-year old, Will … it’s a long story, but suffice it to say … he fell off a cow (yes, a real cow) and busted his forehead open on the side of a big hayride trailer. He’s a tough rodeo boy, for sure.
The CD master for “Worship Under The Stars” is officially IN REPLICATION at DiscMakers … CD’s should be released the week of Jan. 24 – stay tuned!
[more info at worshipunderthestars.com | preorder the CD and/or DVD]
I’m headed out in a few minutes to McRae, GA … my hometown, to play piano in my buddy’s wedding – Chuck Hutcheson … a great friend, great musician, and great man of God. Chuck is one of my “friends” on MySpace – check out his page!
I just launched a new podcast today called the “E-Business Online Podcast & Journal” – crazy as it sounds, I’ll continue doing the “Highest Praise Worship Podcast” – leading worship, sharing ministry and music, etc. Then, I’ll change hats and do this “E-Business” blog and podcast to share insights and commentary on some of the things I’ve learned in doing business online, including a few things lately that have proven QUITE LUCRATIVE,, thankfully! (thanks to God, who ultimately provides all things, right!?)
Wish I could say more … I’m really disappointed that Georgia lost to West Virginia this week. Thrilled that Texas beat USC, although I wish it would’ve been by more than one touchdown, ’cause everybody knows that one of the Texas touchdowns shouldn’t have counted, much as I hate to admit it. And Robert Pooley … before you leave “ha-ha” comments about Georgia losing on this blog, just remember FSU lost, too, bro! We’ll drown our sorrows in prayer and fasting in a few weeks together in Pensacola.
More to come – press in, and get close to God.
For the Kingdom,
Fred

Why would I make bad comments about Georgia losing? I like Mark Richt… and also its not like the “SEC” is real football anyway.
Looking forward to hanging out soon!
Hey Fred…
Long time, no talk! Hope all is well with you, the clan, the “cow” boy (who you took to the ER), the recording project, and, of course, your desire to lead others into life-transforming encounters with the Lord in worship!
My four key passion points for all involved in the music ministry at my church this year are:
D – DELIGHT! We CHOOSE to DELIGHT in the Lord!
I – INSPIRE! We CHOOSE to ISPIRE others to do the same!
N – NURUTRE! We CHOOSE to NURTURE our relationship with God and with each other.
E – ENCOUNTER! We CHOOSE to ENCOUNTER the powerful presence of the Lord in our worship.
Stay well!
Blessings,
Dan McGowan
