Sunday Setlist #19 – Worship Service Recaps
Posted on November 30th, 2008 in Church Life, Faith, Sunday Setlists, Worship Confessionals by Fred McKinnon
The purpose of “Sunday Setlists” is to collaborate with other worshipers worldwide, and to share a recap of our worship experiences. This blog is the hub, and in the links below you’ll find spokes … links to other blogs all over the world capturing the encounters they had in worship this week.
To participate:
1. Blog about your worship service. You don’t have to be the leader, pastor, or Worship Leader. If you don’t have a blog, you can just share your experiences in the comments below.
2. In your actual blog entry, mention the “Sunday Setlists” blog and link back to today’s post. The link you should use is below. An example? In your blog, you could say something like “I’m posting my worship recap along with other worship leaders at “Sunday Setlists” over at FredMcKinnon.Com” – and link to:

3. After sharing your recap (blog entry, worship confessional video, etc)., come back here and fill out the Mister Linky form below. Note: for “URL” – be sure to enter the actual URL address to your Sunday Setlist post, not your homepage. Homepage links will be deleted.

5. SPREAD THE WORD – try to get others involved, twitter it, facebook it, myspace it, blog it, email it, etc.
Here’s our “Sunday Setlist” recap for St. Simons Community Church, Sunday Nov 30, 2008:
(when possible, song titles are linked to iTunes store)
Walk-In Song:
“O Taste and See” by Brian and Jenn Johnson
Comment: this song has been off rotation for a while. A number of people just didn’t really care for it – it was a bit too “sing songy” for them, and they didn’t feel like people connected with it. I’ve really liked this song all along, and thought I’d bring it back during the Walk-In Time. The band enjoys it, and we song several people singing along.
First Song:
“Holy Is The Lord” – Chris Tomlin
Comment: an old familiar for us. We had an early rehearsal last week because of the Thanksgiving Holiday, and I was intentional about choosing an easier lineup with familiar material – both for our rehearsal sake, and to have a good, solid Sunday of familiar music.
Second Song:
“Amazing Grace/My Chains Are Gone”
Comment: I’d originally planned on doing the Hillsong version of this, which is big, fast, and comes with a full band arrangement. I had a smaller band today (which always seems to blend nicely) so during rehearsal last week, I changed this up on the spot and opted for the soft, piano-driven version. It was the right choice.
Interlude:
I continued playing the piano, and took about 3-4 minutes to share a scripture from Jeremiah about how we should trust in God, and not man. I took some time to lead/pastor the people, encourage them, and verbalize the anxiety and tension that we all see in our economy, political transition, and our lives. It was a comforting time, the Scripture re-affirmed our trust in God, and I used that to connect on a relational basis with our people, and transitioned directly into the next song.
Third Song:
“Blessed Be Your Name” (Matt/Beth Redman)
Comment: came right ouf of the interlude above, and sang through the Chorus slowly, with only piano. After singing through the Chorus twice, the drummer clicked it off, and the full band came in at the regular, upbeat tempo.
Sermon:
Final week 6 of 6 of our “Ignite” series, concluding the last of two weeks on Marriage. Great job, David.
Closing Song:
“How He Loves Us” (Kim Walker version)
As I contemplated a closer this week, I met with the Pastor to find out just how his sermon would be closing. When I heard that he was speaking on the 3 types of “love” I asked him if he might could work out the closing so that we acknowledged that even with the 3 types of “love” we are to give, we must accept God’s love for us. He did this, and “How He Loves Us” was a perfect closer.
I thought it was a great Sunday, personally. The guys in our Tech Dept. did a fantastic job, as always.
Your turn!

Fred,
Way to adjust for the situation. Just curious, what’s a “smaller band” for you?
It’s always cool to hear about Lead Pastors and Worship Pastors working together to plan cohesive worship.
Billy Chias last blog post..Distracted
Hey Billy,
It wasn’t so small, I guess – I sometimes have 1-2 extra vocalists, and an extra guitarist. Today we had:
Drums
Bass
E-Gtr
A-Gtr
Keys/Piano
4 vocals.
What made it “smaller” was that most of vocals were covered by musicians … I played keys (or piano) and sang, Shannon Lewis played acoustic and sang, Kimbo played Electric and sang .. so Lori was our only vocalist not on an instrument … so we only have 6 people on stage. It was clean and nice!

Sounds like a great service. I’m not familiar with “How He Loves Us” I’ll have to look into it. I’ve noticed few folks so far have started incorporating Christmas music into their worship? When do you normally begin doing that, or do you? I often find it a challenge to mix in Christmas music. I’m wondering how other people handle it.

Great set list, Fred!
Your smaller band is about the size of our usual one, with the exception that we sometimes have two acoustics and maybe a few extra vocalists (or not).

Just to let you guys know, my blog isn’t about Gandalf coming over the hill. It is about the Sunday Setlist. My twitter message is what you’re seeing, not my blog topic.

Our group is about the size of your “smaller” band, give or a take a few.

I love the song “How He loves” I really want to add this song into our mix but I’m a little unsure as to how people will take to the sloppy wet kiss part. What has been your experience with this? Do people seem to get it?

Steff, I agree with you about the sloppy wet kiss. That has also come up in conversation when talking about “How He Loves Us”.

Yeah, I’m not familiar with “O Taste and See” either; I’ll check it out.
Bobby Gilless last blog post..Benediction and Sending Scripture Readings For Advent Season
Ronnie and Steff -
We modified that verse. I changed the first line from “We are His portion” to “He is our portion”. Also, on the “sloppy wet kiss” line … we’ve done it both ways. We ultimately thought it was not connecting, so we changed it to “when heaven meets earth where no words can express”.
The older generation loves that change. The youth and younger generation loves the “sloppy wet kiss” line.
I saw benefit either way.
Some of the biggest, “macho” men in our church are blown away by that song, and it really breaks them. They’ve come to me and told me so!
For the Kingdom,
Fred McKinnon

Thanks Fred! Great idea on the lyric change. I think we’ll try that.
