I wanted to say thank you to Jack Osteen and Joel Klampart for dreaming into being the Forge conference and braving into being a resource for worship leaders in New England. It was an honor to be a part of the conference, and to serve alongside of some fantastic guys. Thank you also for making it a priority to do a session on family worship, and bring home the practice of worship for those of us who lead corporately. I pray God stirred in the hearts of men and women a blazing passion to reclaim this forgotten practice.
Teaching on family worship there was a gift. Equally as rewarding was leading hymns like “Blessed Assurance”, “Nothing but the Blood” and “Come Thou Fount” on the boardwalk of Ocean Grove, NJ, as people walked by and watched us profess “this is my story, this is my song”. I will cherish that memory…
I look forward to being a part of this conference next year, and I am praying that God moves mightily in New England through his church and the leaders I met at Forge. May God glorify himself…
