Wow
Awesome article. What amazes me is how God led me to this article. I am going through a trial right now and while I was responding to prayer the Lord gave me Habakkuk 3:17-19. I love this scripture. No matter what is going on around us the name of the Lord is to be praised. I then typed in Habakkuk 3:17-19 and clicked "images" on Google. Low and behold on page 2, third row down on the right is Debbie Barnett with Habakkuk 3:17-19 below her name. It has been six years since I last saw Debbie. We used to go to church together. As a matter of Fact, Debbie was on my mind the other day- God is a Great and Mighty God- He deserves all our praise. I love you Debbie- God reminded me of the angel I gave you at New Horizons Christian Church. The bonds that were created and the praises we sang to our God will always be fresh in my mind- and the way you got down on the bongos during "Blessed be the name of our Lord" is always a reminder in my heart when I hear that song on the radio. Praise God for how far he has brought each of us. Keep serving the Lord- He's coming soon sister!¢¾

Performing
I struggle with this all the time. I really enjoy performing and that is probably a major reason why I am involved with worship music. I pray for the right motivation, but in the "heat" of playing, it is really hard to get my ego out of the way. I do feel like I can transcend myself often when playing and maybe those are times when my ego is out of the way.

80dBA?!?
There's absolutely no way we could run our worship at 80dBA in our contemporary services. We'd lose half our people in a month. It's a young, contemporary, energetic church, and we target about 90-92dBA for full-out music from the band, with brief peaks up to 95-97 at times. 80dBA is probably about right for our "blended" semi-traditional service, but to say that 80dBA would work for an energetic contemporary service is just plain silly. Stage volume from the snare drum alone would be in that range, I think.

Thanks, Ross
Ross, this is a great insight that I find very challenging. I believe that one weakness in the modern praise and worship movement is an over emphasis of God's immanence at the expense of His transcendence. Thank you for so eloquently expressing this. Your leadership has been a real inspiration to me. Thanks again for your transparency and honesty.

Hear hear!
Absolutely right! In the end, what will bring people to Christ is not noise, lights and shouts, but the Presence, Power and Love of God. As Tommy Tenney said in his book "The God Chasers" - "People are not hungry for church, they are hungry for God". We can give them all the lights, exitement etc that we think they want, but if they don't meet with the living God who can heal them, comfort them, and change their lives, we are wasting their time. It's our job to lead people into God's presence, not, as you say, be cheerleaders.

Prayer In The New Testamnet
Great reminder that the life we live should emulate Jesus and the praise of His name in many different ways and styles. If one looks at the New Testament use of the word prayer, it is used as a general term for adoration, bowing, singing, etc. I would take this to mean that there are various ways of expression of our worship and prayer than just kneeling and bowing. Thanks for the great article!
