This morning’s worship music was awesome! Ethan Daum and friends, the ANC choir, and the congregation all filled me with joy.

Here’s the full music lineup:

Ethan Daum Band played…
Comfort (Deb Talan)
Getting into You (Relient k)
Cherry Trees (Deb Talan)
Doubting Thomas (Nickel Creek)

Then the choir sang the The Lord’s Prayer (Albert Hay Malotte), and the congregation all sang Psalm 62 – Only in God (John Michael Talbot) together.

By the time I opened the Word, then, I was moved, excited, inspired, filled with peace and happiness. Definitely the way to open a worship service!

Then after the message and closing prayer, the congregation all sang Here I Am Lord (Dan Shutte), followed by the high school choir singing People Get Ready (Curtis Mayfield and the Impressions).

Then the Ethan Daum band closed out with…
My Own Two Hands (Ben Harper & Jack Johnson)
Times (Tenth Avenue North)
Till Kingdom Come (Coldplay)

AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME! (And I have been wanting to use Coldplay in a worship setting for years! THANKS Ethan!!)

I’m so happy, I’m even enjoying this chilly fall Sunday afternoon. Really!
