New Guest Series!

Then I will hold my head high, above my enemies who surround me. At his sanctuary I will offer sacrifices with shouts of joy, singing and praising the Lord with music. Psalm 27:6

If you were to do a quick “topical” search of the Bible for the words “singing” or “music” you might be amazed at the amount of times they are specifically mentioned as vital elements of worshiping God. Singing praises to God isn’t something that churches do because it’s “tradition.” Rather, it’s a way for us to communicate with God, much like prayer.

Each week at church we get the privilege of worshipping with incredible music led by a talented ensemble of musicians and singers. This group of people doesn’t just get together on Sunday morning and pick a group of random songs for the week. There is so much that goes into the Worship Team including hours of research to figure out which songs will be added to the current song list, lengthy rehearsals during the week for both the band and the singers, an entire team of technical people who run the lights, sound, web cameras, lyrics on the screens, and so much more. It truly takes a team to make the worship experience come alive on the weekends. So, why would these people put so much time and energy into making music for us? That’s what we’re going to find out. What makes these people “tick?” What are they passionate about? What is so important about the connection between music and our relationship with God? 

In the next couple weeks, we’re going to hear from four members of the CATB Worship Arts Team. We hope that it will give you a greater insight into the musical experience at CATB as well as your own relationship with musical worship. In the meantime, find a Christian radio station, turn up the volume and sing your heart out to God!
