hey. i’ve been reading your blog for a while now and i just gotten to commenting (this is gonna be a long one, hope you have the time
your blog has been a great help. our church, Quest Community Fellowship, is actually an international strategic partner with NPCC. and cris (the keyboard guy) plays for us. he’s our band leader 
i do service programming, and most of the stuff we’re doing is actually a lot like yours, except for some minor tweaks to make it relevant to our “culture.” i’ve been to a couple of sundays@NP in Alpharetta and its really inspired us to be better and more relevant.
we do sermons that you guys already did in the past, and so we got a lot of your resources for ideas.
one of my biggest challenges is putting different elements in the service, (for one because volunteering is not big here and we have to “strongly” encourage people to help out so we’re manpower-challenged)…
by elements, i mean: opening song, opening video, drama, closing songs, closing videos, etc… we try our best to be as creative as possible (we have a creative team), but wearing more than 2 “hats” has its disadvantages, like not being able to think clearly & creatively
is there a link somewhere where i can take a look at the different elements of your previous services? esp opening and closing songs… it would really help a lot. we’re about to do PERMISSION TO SPEAK, then JUDGEMENT CALL.
sorry this is too long. next time will be shorter (promise) [cross my finger] God bless you & your family bro.

Hiya, sorry if this seems rushed, but its late at night and ive had this topic burning inside of me for sooo long, so, right to it…
do you think it is ethically right to pay for worship?
im not talking about paying the musicians or the speaker, which are issues in themselves, but im talking about copyright. Obviously you dont need to play copyrighted music to create effective worship, but for practical purposes this is often the case. My problem is, as an outsider, I see CCLI as charging my church, and almost every other, to worship.
Shouldn’t bands creating popular worship music take out a creative commons licence, meaning we can play their songs in our church free of charge?
It just doesnt seem fair, the way it is right now. My background, uh, I’m 19, a new worship leader at a small church called hillside in Auckland, New Zealand.
Any opinions, information, details, ANYTHING is appreciated, I just want to know more about what I’m talking about.
Keen to hear from you,
Cam
