Tonight I got the pleasure of mixing Kristian Stanfill and his band…..and it was a pleasure!  Above all of the talent that these guys oooz…they have huge hearts!

God has been doing cool things with our team at BB and I feel like he is bringing clarity to me in the process.  Tonight i had mentioned to Kristian I really resonated with what he said on this post.  Here was his prayer that just brought such clear words to desires in my heart.

God…
i want more.  i want as much of your presence and power as i can handle in my human frame.  turn our expectations upside down.  deliver us from what we think is a successful worship experience.  make us open and willing to follow You to uncharted places.  amen.

I’ve been involved in worship experiences all my life.  I’ve toured with Passion, mixed for 7|22 for years, and been at FOH mixing and producing for almost 7 years at NPM.  I have worked with some of the most talented people in the world and it has been such a blessing……but I want more.

Holy Spirit,
please come into our church.  i know You have called me here, to this place.  i need You to bring life.  i need You to bring clarity to our team.  i need You to do things that are only You.  You have gifted us so graciously with resources, talent, and excellence that other churches beg to have.  May we not raise those blessings subconsciously and miss You.  the hearts that sit in our seats need You.  You have called me to be excellent at what i do.  but i need You.  we need You.
