Viva La Vida

March 10th, 2010

Our band took some time out of rehearsing our usual worship numbers to play at the CCK Leader’s Party. We did a full hour set featuring some classics from MJ, Maroon 5, Stevie Wonder, Jamiroquai and more…

Was a hugely fun yet stretching experience for us. Recommend it to any band if you get the oppotunity – the discipline of learning a load of function songs beat for beat, helped us raise the game a lot. Anyways here are some videos from the rehearsals and live performance. (I got promoted/demoted to percussion)

CCK Women’s Day

February 13th, 2010

Today was CCK Women’s Day, 400 women across Brighton gathered for a day of worship led by Jules Burt, teaching from Wendy Virgo and Livy Gibbs (married to Stuart, planting a church in Greenwich, London) and ministry time. The day was lead by Kate Virgo and her excellent team. The talks will be online soon, so keep tuned in for those…

If you’re a bloke, we’re having a CCK Men’s Weekend soon and I’m sure we’ll post up the talks for download. Will let ya know

Managed to sneak in for the worship as my band were playing. We were the only 5 males in the room… so I didn’t hang around for long(!)

Jules’ songlist was:
Psalm 95
Sing to the Lord (Lou Fellingham) E
Famous One (Chris Tomlin) E
A Father to the Fatherless (Paul Oakley) D
Majesty (Jack Hayford) D
All Authority – chorus (Desperation Band) D

The Conference :: DEFERRED

February 9th, 2010

Conference Deferred

After much thought, prayer and discussion, we’ve decided to hold-off running the CCK Worship School Conference for this year, with the intention of picking it up again in a couple of years.

Why?? We are experiencing a particular season of growth and transition at CCK, which requires a ton more focused attention and energy accross every aspect of CCK life, certainly including the worship department… so for this next season, we wanna give as much time as we can to building something outstanding here in Brighton. (More on this another day…)

Is this the end of Worship School? Absolutely, not!

  1. Blog. In the mean time, WS will primarily be a worship training blog from the WS team, Stuart Townend, Lou Fellingham, Phatfish, Joel Virgo and myself, plus some special guests now and then. Subscribe to the RSS feed for all the headlines, or follow us on…

  2. Twitter. WS is regularly tweeting short helpful insights for worship leaders, musicians and worshippers.

  3. Conference. We do anticipate hosting the WS Conference in the not too distant future. We’ll keep you posted as soon as we have more on this.

Well that’s the news from us. We shall keep you posted as things develop.

Gethsemane

February 4th, 2010

Just been listening to Stuart Townend’s song Gethsemane from CCK live album. It’s actually the first time I’ve heard this song since the album was out. Dang it’s good song. There’s a very moving intro – Stuart reading the account of Gethsemane over some amazing music – check it out (lyrics below)…

To see the King of heaven fall
In anguish to His knees,
The Light and Hope of all the world
Now overwhelmed with grief.
What nameless horrors must He see,
To cry out in the garden:
“Oh, take this cup away from me –
Yet not my will but Yours,
Yet not my will but Yours.”

To know each friend will fall away,
And heaven’s voice be still,
For hell to have its vengeful day
Upon Golgotha’s hill.
No words describe the Saviour’s plight -
To be by God forsaken
Till wrath and love are satisfied
And every sin is paid
And every sin is paid

What took Him to this wretched place,
What kept Him on this road?
His love for Adam’s curséd race,
For every broken soul.
No sin too slight to overlook,
No crime too great to carry,
All mingled in this poisoned cup –
And yet He drank it all,
The Saviour drank it all,
The Saviour drank it all.

You can buy the song for £0.79 on iTunes here
