Viva True Northa
April 15, 2009
Getting good ideas when putting a service together can be a lot of work. Still other times, we’re subject to divine intervention. I’m convinced that this is one of those times.
Such was the case with our “Real World Ecclesiastes” series at True North. A 4 week look at a king who had it all and still found that life was meaningless.
This was my favorite series this year second only to “I Love the 80’s” in January.
Nick Zarzana painted an amazing mural that was hung in the lobby and auctioned off for $750 at the end of the series (all profits going to Love146). I’ll be sure to post pictures of that as well.
The music was a huge WIN. In week 2 we covered Coldplay’s “Lost!” and “Viva La Vida” in week 4.
At Elevate (our Sunday eve service) I commissioned Rob Merkle, our SPD to play a makeshift timpani we had created (a kick drum gaff taped to a keyboard stand).
I could not have predicted what happened next…
Please forgive the audio / video quality. The purpose of filming this was to be utilized as “game tape” and was not intended to be broadcast or published in any way.
