Rev. Dr. Dean Courtier 'Go! And Pour Out Your Worship' at Estuary Elim Online.

On this special recap episode, our host Rohini Drake is joined by Pastors Clayton Oliphint and Allison Jean to break down our most recent worship series, Who(se) We Are. They discuss themes and stories that emerged during the series, as well as some ideas that ended up on the cutting room floor. Don't miss this deeper dive into the core values we hold as a church!

I used NotebookLM and took my sermons from our Out of Context worship series and it created this 20+ minute review podcast. Hearing these two AI people discuss this series and what they "learned" from it is truly interesting. Let me know what you think.

Psalms were an integral part of OT worship, and some psalms end with doxologies (a praise formula) or prayers that might have served a concluding role in worship. For example, Psalm 106 ends with:  "Praise be to the Lord, the God of Israel, from everlasting to everlasting. Let all the people say, 'Amen!' Praise the Lord."

A new MP3 sermon from Grace Bible Church is now available on SermonAudio with the following details: Title: Physical Expression of Worship: Voice, Hands & Feet Subtitle: Worship Series Speaker: Scott Harris Broadcaster: Grace Bible Church Event: Sunday Service Date: 3/17/2024 Length: 53 min.

In this message of "The Four Faces of Worship" series, we explore the Ox Face of the cherubim, symbolizing humble service and great sacrifice. We are reminded of Jesus' ultimate sacrifice, the suffering servant who gave everything for our salvation. Philippians 2:5-9 encourages us to emulate Christ's humility and obedience, serving others as He served us. The sermon emphasizes the importance of working out our salvation in fear and trembling, not by trying to earn it, but by living out the faith and grace God has worked into our hearts by serving others. We are called to be a royal priesthood, actively involved in ministry, and to give generously as part of our worship. The message concludes with a call to respond to Jesus' sacrifice with quiet strength, faithful obedience, and humble faith, continuing the worship beyond the church service into our daily lives. God has Hope for you here. Join us: https://www.NewChurch.Love Please Help support more messages like these by texting the word “Give” to 832-400-5299.

Our new Deconstructing Religion worship series looks at what is at the root of who we are and what we believe. Over the years we were taught to believe certain things. In today's society, people are starting to turn away from what they have always been taught and told about religion. As a Christian community we are going to look at some of the things we have been taught and examine difficult passages in Holy Scripture and see what they really mean and really say to us.

In this episode of The Ferment, Adam and Matt Farrand talk about the transition from being a utility player and worship leader to the person in charge of worship administration. That's right…scheduling, auditioning, and even a spreadsheet or two. After fleshing out how the function of a trellis relates to both grapes and worship ministry, they walk us through some tangible steps in creating and maintaining a catalogue of songs for your church, the process of onboarding new team members and how to co-create a set list. Administration may be your favorite thing, but we're guessing it's not. So Matt is here to talk you through it! Matt Farrand is a veteran worship pastor and church communications strategist with 20 years of ministry experience. As a pastor's son in a rural church, Matt grew up running sound, fixing gear, making the bulletin, helping lead worship… whatever was needed to make Sundays happen. He was called to ministry at an early age, and has been leading weekly services for more than 20 years. Matt studied worship arts and youth ministry at North Central University in Minneapolis, MN., served Vineyard Church in Maryville, TN for 11 years and is currently the worship pastor at Vineyard Church of the Rockies. He and his wife Teri live in Colorado with their daughter Tatum and son Mac.   Socials:  Instagram @thefermentpodcast Twitter @fermentcast TikTok @vineyardworship

In the first episode of our Leading Better Worship series, Anabeth Morgan shares about her practice of seeking the Lord for His invitation in day-to-day life, how to balance between leading songs and facilitating ministry moments, and tailoring a set list to meet the needs of the room you're in. Anabeth and Adam also talk about the importance of leaders sharing their humanity, and how to incorporate and work in tandem with our personality, temperament and insecurities in leadership. Anabeth Morgan is a worship leader, songwriter and one of the staff pastors at the Mile High Vineyard neighborhood churches since 2011.  She has been an integral part of Vineyard Worship as a leader, artist and writer, serving at Vineyard churches in Houston, Columbus, and Kansas City. Anabeth is deeply passionate about God's presence and loves to lean into the Spirit of God in worship and prayer. Her ability to listen to the Holy Spirit, whether leading worship or groups of people, has given God the opportunity to do wonderful things in people's lives. She loves sharing her intimate faith in God with others, enjoys being hospitable, and is always sensitive to the people and environment around her.  Anabeth has appeared on many Vineyard albums such as Cultivation Generation: Servant Wide Awake and My Foundation; Vineyard National Conference: I Love Your Presence and Wonderful. In December 2017 she finished writing and recording her first studio album A Place Your Glory Dwells. Recently, she has had songs You Meet Me Here and Heaven's Work released through Vineyard Worship and has published other worship songs in collaboration with other songwriters. She was married to Kyle in 2003 and they have two amazing children, Jovie and Miles.   Socials:  Instagram @thefermentpodcast Twitter @fermentcast TikTok @vineyardworship

In the fourth episode of the Pastoring Worship series, Adam talks with worship pastor and spiritual director Justin Law. Justin shares about surrendering music and worship before being called back into it, how his interest in spiritual direction developed, and some practical tools he employs in caring for his worship team and intentionally developing them both relationally and musically. Justin and Adam trade some personal stories relating to spiritual direction growth, and Justin lays out what one might expect when engaging in spiritual direction.    Justin Law has a B.A. in Psychology from Hamline University and a Masters of Ministry from St. Stephen's University. He became worship pastor at River Heights Vineyard in Minnesota in 2001 and currently leads in the areas of worship arts, prayer, and spiritual formation/discipleship. He received his certification as a Spiritual Director in 2015.  In addition to writing and recording worship music, he leads a music collective called The Law Collective and performs as a solo singer/songwriter and as a member of indie rock band The River High. Justin gets excited when people connect with the love and presence of God, when Minnesota sports teams win, and when there's great coffee. He's grateful to his parents for investing in his life, planting the first Vineyard in Minnesota, and allowing him to get that KISS album at the age of four.     Show Notes:  The Ferment 12/16/18 Justin Law - Singer-Songwriter, Pastor, Spiritual Director https://bit.ly/36zh7F4   Socials:  Instagram @thefermentpodcast Twitter @fermentcast TikTok @vineyardworship
