The Word | Steve Schallert
Steve Schallert is Kickstarting a worship album, and you should check it out. He led worship for my Discipleship Training School when I was first in YWAM, so I can tell you from experience that he facilitates some uniquely personal and justice-minded worship. In his own words...
"'SONGS OF SORROW / SONGS OF HOPE' is my attempt to reaffirm the place of lamentation within the world of congregational worship music. My prayer is that these songs, songs written all over the world in all kind of circumstances, will be both a comfort and a challenge to communities of faith. A comfort and affirmation for all of us who mourn and struggle and weep and doubt and a challenge for us all to love deeper and wider and more recklessly. These are songs of tension and weakness, songs of compassion and praise and protest… and I invite you to join me as I seek to bring them to life."
For those who couldn't make it to YWAM, Kona Ministry Night last night and to all our friends around the world, here is a (iPhone) recording of the evenings session. Was such a blast to join this community in protest/worship and proclaim the reality of a new world breaking into the shell of the old. Thanks for everyone who helped make it a special night!
Note the first three songs are all from my upcoming worship/protest full length record titled "Songs of Sorrow / Songs of Hope" due out this fall. Little sneak peak at what is to come. I'll be launching the Kickstarter and pre-orders for the project within the next two weeks. So keep your eyes peeled and join me if you find it a valuable contribution to the world.
PEACE TO YOU ALL FRIENDS!
Recorded LIVE @ YWAM, Kona - March 17th
Thanks to the 300+ folks who came out for an epic night of worship/protest.
