Welcome to the new Hope City worship team online resource library and blog. I’ve put this space together to make things a little easier for us as we move into the next stage of our development as a music ministry at Hope City.
Every Monday (sometimes Tuesday) I will be posting everything you need to know for the upcoming Sunday.
Each blog post will include:
- Sunday’s songs: Click the links to download songsheets and listen to sound references. You will find a poor, but hopefully adequate recording of my version of the song so you can have something realistic to practice with, as well as some other pro versions for more inspiration.
- Sunday’s musos: Who’s playing what that week.
- Weekly rambling: The things I want to say that week – thoughts, news, whatever.
- Weekly listening exercise: My weekly ramblings will provide more context and substance for this as time goes on, but one of the musical soft-skills I want to start emphasising is the importance of listening. So, each week, in addition to your personal practice time prepping for Sunday’s songs, I want you to take 10 minutes to critically listen to the music clip I post for the week and interact with the thoughts I convey there.
I hope you will enjoy this space and find it increasingly helpful as it grows. Feel free to make suggestions and please let me know if anything isn’t working properly. It’s still a bit rough, but I’ll fix it up as we go along.
Cheers
Trev
