WatchWorking On Rhythms
Teaching slap and rhythm structure to one of my bass guitar students. Having him practice with me on drums helps him to hear the slap and pluck rhythms he’s looking for in the piece we’re working on now. This is a practice video I made for him.
Also, I’ve never had drum or bass lessons. Everything I know I learned by ear on my own. Don’t be to hard...

Whine Like A Toddler One More Time And I’ll Make...
Reading in Numbers tonight I started laughing out loud at God’s reaction to sin in the camp. When the Israelites complain about having to eat manna all the time, in chapter 11, and cry like babies to God for meat to eat – God says they’ll eat meat for a month. He says they will eat so much meat they will “have meat coming out of their nose” and they will “grow to hate it”. Then again in chapter...

I Think I’m In Love With Leviticus
I think I’m in love with Leviticus. Who knew such a bloody and ritualistic book could be so alive and beautiful. I read passages like chapter 16 which talks through all of the different things Aaron, as the High Priest, had to do in order to even enter into the Most Holy Place of the Lord. Even to go into the Meeting Tent there was such a list or rules he had to follow or would have died....

Leviticus: Worship=Sacrifice
Spending some time in the Old Testament book of Leviticus. Leviticus has much to do about worship and day-to-day living for the Israelite people following the Exodus from Egypt. It’s full of very specific rules and rituals concerning sacrifices of worship and offerings covering various types of sins. As I read I realize that worship and sacrifice are connected so much that they are the same....

My Christian Hipster Quotient is 63/120 Low CHQ.

You seem to like edginess in some measure but become uneasy when your idea of Christian...

I’ve been here before. A smoky room with the smell of wine and cheap perfume. I’m playing an acoustic set tonight at the Kirkley hotel in Lynchburg, Virginia. It’s a good venue. Well, it’s a bar, lounge, thing, place. There are good people here. I came tonight being booked at the last-minute. I threw together a list of songs, that I know and don’t know. For some reason I feel like this whole...

Children And Worship
Then children were brought to him that he might lay his hands on them and pray. The disciples rebuked the people, but Jesus said, “Let the little children come to me and do not hinder them, for to such belongs the kingdom of heaven.” And he laid his hands on them and went away. - Matthew 19:13-15 (ESV)
This morning I’ m getting ready to go lead worship for a group of young children. My friend...
