New Song #4 and #5


You Deserve by Hillsong

We introduced this song last Sunday and I’m really excited about this one.  We sing this song because it is about what Christ did on the cross and that He deserves all the honor, glory, and praise for that.  God has saved us, not by anything we have done, but by His grace.  For that reason we should live our lives for Him.  If you have crossed that line of salvation than you know the feeling in the bridge of this song that says, “I can’t image a life without you, cuz it’s all for You”.  Let’s get behind the lyrics of this tune and sing it out.

Your Love Never Fails by Jesus Culture (Chris McClarney)

Nothing can separate us from the love of the Father.  That is an amazing concept to think about in a world that uses the word love very flippantly.  This song tells us that God stays the same through the ages and His love never fails.  That is why Jesus came for us to give us life in Him.  So no matter what you may be going through in your life God is there and will work all things for your good even when it seems there is no way that could happen.  Just remain in Him and go after Him with all your heart.

New Song #2 and #3

Anthem by Casey Darnell

Recently I was at a conference and the speaker said it is our job to bring up the next generation, to disciple them to be the church of the future.  No matter what age you are if you are 80 or 8 and you are in the kingdom it is your job to foster that next generation.  So this song is a prayer for God to raise up a generation for His glory of His salvation.  I pray that the words of this song be the “Anthem” for Fellowship Church in the days to come.  We have the greatest message known to man, “that our God is greater, our God is stronger”.  May His heartbeat be our heartbeat to proclaim His glory and raise up a generation for Him. 

Arms Open Wide-Hillsong and Brett Younker

Don’t confuse this song with that song from the early 2000’s “Arms Wide Open”.  This is a prayer for our lives to be about Jesus and nothing else.  When we sing this let’s ask God to make the lyrics of this song true in our lives. “Take my hands and make them clean, keep my heart in purity, that I may walk in all you have for me”.  The ending of the song is a cry back to God declaring that we will surrender our lives to Him and that He would have His way in our lives.  Let’s proclaim that our lives would be a reflection of Jesus and that we will stand “Arms Open Wide” for He will do in our lives

New Song 1 Our God

Our God is greater, our God is stronger, God you are higher than any other.  We serve a God that is like no other, and we should sing this and proclaim it everywhere we go.  This song is sort of our “theme song” as we proceed into the fall and on. We have already played this numerous times and have had great response in singing this song.  I love the bridge of this song that simply states Romans 8:31, “If God is for us, than who can ever be against us”.  We have said as a staff and leadership that if God isn’t leading us there then we don’t want to go.  “If our God is for us than who could ever stop us and if our God is with us than what could stand against”.  Let’s sing this and proclaim it in the days and months to come.  Let us know how this song has resonated with you.

Thanks
Mickey

Sing a New Song

As you have probably noticed we have been doing a lot of new songs lately and you are probably wondering why and I wish they would sing songs that I know. So here is an explanation why we are singing so many new songs. Well the main reason is Psalm 96 tells us to sing a new song and to praise His name and I believe God is constantly growing and changing us and giving us new songs to sing. And when I say sing I mean SING and SING LOUD to proclaim His name great. So over the last 2 months we have introduced around 10 new songs that we are going to be singing in the coming season. Over the next few days I’m going to be posting why we are singing them and what they will mean to us in the coming weeks as we continue to learn these songs and sing them out to the creator of the universe.

Here is a list of the songs and check back for a little more on each of these:

1. Anthem-Casey Darnell
2. Your Love Never Fails-Jesus Culture
3. Our God-Chris Tomlin
4. Hallelujah (The Anthem)-Planetshakers
5. Desert Song-Hillsong
6. Arms Open Wide-Hillsong
7. Yours Is The Victory-Newspring
8. You Deserve-Hillsong
9. Kingdom Come-Elevation Worship
10. Give Me Faith-Elevation Worship

Thanks

Awesome Sunday and a great message to go along with what we are singing about.  Don't miss the next two weeks.  Josh is getting married Saturday and my good friend Brian Wilson will be playing the drums for us.  Always a pleasure to get to hang out with him and he loves coffee so when you see him get him some coffee.  Then the following Sunday we are going to do a little acoustic jam.  Hope to see you guys there. 

Thanks

Toasted

A small company in Vermont has produced a toaster that burns the image of Jesus Christ onto every slice of your daily bread. Just when you thought you had "seen it all". The americanizing of religion continues to pour out more confusion. I will take mine with strawberry jam. Enjoy your daily bread.

New and Improved T-Shirts

T-shirt Front
I'm really excited to announce that we have a new t shirt design and they should be here soon.  We are going to take pre-orders on these shirts and they will be priced at $12.00 each.  We have partnered with Render Apparel from Nashville, TN.  The great thing about partnering with them is each t-shirt that we sell a portion of proceeds goes to help an organization that helps other people who cannot help themselves. 

Pre orering is easy all you have to do is use our paypal system located on this page to the right, or you can email the church office with sizes and quanity, but shirts will not be held until they have been purchased.  If you are using paypal please specify in the "add special instructions to seller" the sizes and quanities you would like to purchase. 

New T-shirt design back
The shirts should be here in roughly 10 days.  So I hope everyone can get and help spread the word and support Fellowship Church.

How He Loves-John Mark McMillan
Yours Is The Victory-Newspring
Arms Open Wide-Hillsong (Brett Younker Arrangement)

Thanks for a great Sunday.  I'm really excited where God is leading Fellowship Church through this 40 Days study if you have not signed up for a small group you need to do it right now right HERE.  The next 6 weeks could transform your life in ways you could have never imagined.

Also thank you to all who came last Wednesday night for our Night of Worship, it was an incredible evening of worship and fellowship.  For those who have been asking if we will do it again the answer is YES.  For when the answer is WE DON'T KNOW.  Hope that helps.  But it was a great evening and it was really encouraging to see everyone promoting and praising the evening on Facebook and Twitter.

This Sunday don't forget to bring your friends or family members who don't attend church on a regular basis.  Our goal for this Sunday is 400.  Get them to church, get them in a 40 days small group and let God take over.  It's that simple.  Remember if someone says no they are not rejecting you they are rejecting Jesus.  Go for it.
