Everyone Gets to Play
At this stage we called our gathering The Audience of One. The concept was taken from an idea where some musos got together, hired a truck and went into the desert to play only to The Audience of One. We loved the idea and wanted to be a part of something like that at some… Continue reading Rumours of Worship – 6 October 2007
Tonight was about Psalm 27 which Simon had felt we needed to worship around. We cried out to the Lord for justice and dancing on the injustice. Below are the ideas that people put onto the whiteboard during the evening’s worship. We ended up playing: Holy, holy, Did you feel, You will remain, How great… Continue reading Rumours of Worship – 14 August 2010
This evening seemed to us to be about freedom for our sons and daughters. Below are the ideas that people put onto the whiteboard during the evening’s worship. Songs from this night included: Holy Spirit come, Come now is the time, Set me on fire, Lord reign in me, Jesus you are love (Simon original… Continue reading Rumours of Worship – 10 July 2010
We were really impacted at the Intimacy in Worship Conference in Te Aroha in April of this year. We had a sense of the importance of worshiping over the nation and interceding on New Zealand’s behalf. Some of the songs we ended up doing were: Hosanna, Blessed be your name, Mercy saves me, Above all… Continue reading Rumours of Worship – 29 May 2010
The sense of the night was of the need to be planted by the streams of living water so that we would be unmovable and unshakable. Below are the ideas that people put onto the whiteboard during the evening’s worship. The songs of the night were: Refuge in you, History maker, Revelation song, Wide, Salvation… Continue reading Rumours of Worship – 2 October 2010
The evening seemed to be about God’s faithfulness to us as well as the shaking that is going on in the land. We had sense of God’s justice and mercy. It seemed to be about the younger generation standing (several of our young people played significant roles in this session). Towards the end of our… Continue reading Rumours of Worship – 18 December 2010
I woke up early on Christmas morning, after helping Father Christmas fill stockings, with an idea for a story. I had asked the Lord to lead me over this time and to speak, and we had watched the movie, “inception” a few days before, so I took the idea as possible inspiration – from God…… Continue reading A Christmas story
This is a rewrite of a song that Simon wrote in Waihi some time back. It was recorded at our November 2010 Rumours of Worship. It was a hard time of worship – it felt like we were fighting for a breakthrough for the nation. We had Simon’s dad and his wife Jenny join us… Continue reading Amazing Love
This is the same song that Simon recorded “live” directly into the mac (playing with a loop), except that we played with the vocals and pitch-shifted it downwards! Quite fun. We found it was quite hard for him to hear the pitch, so I think in the end we recorded it without the pitch-shifting and… Continue reading Be still and know – the effected vocal version
This is from our “Rumours of worship” time in August 2010. It’s a song that Simon felt we should sing after “How great is our God” and before “Dwell” – both not original – so we are not putting them on the site (yet). The “Psalm” that Simon and Cheryl did was a bit later… Continue reading Praise Awaits
