One thing that was always so frustrating to me in youth ministry was figuring out how to help these kids that I loved so much understand and experience the presence of God. I really truly believe that knowing God is life-changing and empowering for that change. I so often recognized a need for that power in "my kids" but couldn't quite figure out how to lead them into an empowering relationship with the Lord. So, when I read this article it was helpful in a way. I know its technically about worship leading, but I think its for any of us who long to help others experience the goodness of the Lord in the same way we have....and long to continue to experience it for ourselves!
So, here's the article. Its at www.worshipmatters.com under July 6th. The guy who writes it lives nearby and is a guy who Jamie really counts as a role-model. I think we both love Bob because he is enthusiastically in love with the Lord and uncompromising in his commitment to the Bible and good theology especially in congregational worship... and he is uniquely humble among Christian worship leaders - or even Christian leaders in general.
