I feel really excited about the September issue of worshipnotes. We've got the songwriting winnner (not picked yet,) an interview, a review, Tom's got a good article. Plus, I've got a cool idea for our October issue.

I also have this idea for wn. Originally, it was an idea that I plan on using here at home. I want to create a 5-7 week series of "mini-lessons" on worship. like Why We Worship or something like that. Each lesson would about 3-5 minutes long w/ an accompanying powerpoint template. For my particular church, they're cool with clapping in worship, but they don't really know anything about kneeling or shouting or other Biblical commands about worship. If I did it, and it worked, I think it would be cool to make it available as a free download on worshipnotes. Even in today's hip society, I think a lot of church bodies really don't have any idea what the Bible says about worship.

As worship leaders, I think we bear a responsibility to teach our people about worship. But, if you're not a gifted teacher, it's hard to come up w/ creative ways to do that. Maybe this worship "curriculum" might be a help for worship leaders out there?

Love to know what you all think...
