Swag Jackpot For Worship Leaders

My friends over at Proclaim have got something pretty massive going on.

For starters, they’ve got a pretty dope church presentation software that is about to be a game changer when it comes to how churches utilize and integrate media in their services. To learn more about the Proclaim system and watch a video on how it works, visit their website at www.ProclaimOnline.com.

But here’s the kicker… to roll out the new Proclaim Church Presentation software, they have partnered with a virtual who’s who of over 30 of today’s top worship resource companies and assembled a giveaway to end all giveaways in the form of The Great Worship Resource Giveaway!

Some of Proclaim’s partners for The Great Worship Resource Giveaway include Worship Leader Magazine, Integrity MusicMedia Procast, Christian Musician Summit, Musicademy, PraiseVocals, Interactive Worship Live and many, many more!

Over the next couple months, over 100 prizes will be given away totaling over $25,000! This includes worship videos, CDs, gift cards, worship event passes and technical training, a year’s worth of professional audio & video podcasting, subscriptions to the top worship planning site, membership to top worship media sites, a new church website and even a guitar! THAT, ladies and gentlemen, is the SWAG JACKPOT for your church’s worship team!

Touch your neighbor and say, “Gangsta!”

Worship leader? Music director? Church musician? Church media tech? Choir member? Worship team singer?  This is for you!

The Great Worship Resource Giveaway begins today and runs through April 12. There are several different ways you can enter to win, some one-time and some daily.  For more info on Proclaim, The Great Worship Resource Giveaway and how to get your hand in the SWAG JACKPOT, go to their website at www.ProclaimOnline.com!

Winter Snow

Winter Snow by Audrey Assad has quickly become one of my favorite songs.  The melody is so intimate and the lyric paints a beautiful picture of a Savior whose very entrance into the earth wasn’t forceful, regal or grand, but rather graceful… blanketing… covering.

Could’ve come like a mighty storm
with all the strength of a hurricane
You could’ve come like a forrest fire
with the power of heaven in your flame
But you came like a winter snow
quiet and soft and slow
Falling from the sky in the night
to the earth below
Could’ve swept in like a tidal wave
or an ocean to ravish our hearts
You could have come through like a roaring flood
to wipe away the things we’ve scarred
No, your voice wasn’t in a bush burning
No, your voice wasn’t in a rushing wind
It was still, it was small, it was hidden

Winter Snow is available on Chris Tomlin’s excellent Christmas album, Glory In The Highest: Christmas Songs Of Worship.

The Big Christmas Music Giveaway (Updated w/ Winners!)

It’s the most wonderful time of the year!

It’s Christmastime and I’m excited to be partnering with Integrity Music to give away FIVE 3-CD Christmas Music Gift packs, each consisting of the following:

  1. Israel & New Breed “A Timeless Christmas” (my personal favorite Christmas album)
  2. Worship & Adore: A Christmas Offering” (featuring Kari Jobe, Paul Baloche, Lincoln Brewster, Vicky Beeching and many more)
  3. “A Brooklyn Tabernacle Christmas” (brand new 2010 release)

BAM! That’s A LOT of great music just in time for your holiday enjoyment and musical merriment!

Since it was originally released in 2006, Israel & New Breed’s “A Timeless Christmas” has been at the top of my list of favorite Christmas albums.  It’s lively, festive, worshipful and an all-around musical tour-de-force unlike anything else I’ve heard. In fact, it has the distinction of being the ONLY Christmas album that I actually listen to throughout the entire year.  It’s that good.  Here’s just a little taste of “A Timeless Christmas”, with one of my favorite tracks… “Hark! (featuring Matthew West)”

All The Poor & Powerless

I just got hipped to Sons & Daughters by my boy Brewster. Their song “All The Poor & Powerless” is stunning. Word has it their performance of “All The Poor & Powerless” was one of the many highlights of last week’s Story 2010 Conference in Chicago, hosted by visionary Ben Arment.

Sons & Daughters - All The Poor & Powerless
All the poor and powerless, and all the lost and lonely
And all the theives will come confess, and know that You are holy
And all the hearts that are content, and all that feel unworthy
And all who hurt with nothing left, will know that You are holy

Here’s a dope video with a different, more stripped-down version of the song, sans the rhythm track and choir. Amazing.

You can download “All The Poor & Powerless” for free here, and follow Sons & Daughters on Twitter here.
