The heart of God loves a persevering worshipper who, though overwhelmed by many troubles, is overwhelmed even more by the beauty of God.

In heaven we will sing free of all the shame, sickness and sorrow that we encounter in the here and now.

The church has been under-fathered and over-mothered.

I love the intensity of the Psalms. No-one ever sounds bored about God or about life in the Psalms.

Christian worship must contain both the cross and the crown. Sing of majesty, and sing of mercy.

One of the most encouraging things is to see that so many of these young musicians and worship leaders are really concerned with doing a good job representing the truth of Jesus in their songs, and not just concerned with creative and musical progression.

I think it's so important that the church displays what it can look like to be "one." Our society can be so fragmented, and there's an opportunity for the worshipping church to give some leadership into that area.
