What is a Blog, and why would a worship band use one?

So, Liberty is starting a worship blog. How can something with the word "blog" in it be used to glorify God?

First, if you do not know what a blog is or how they work you should take 3 minutes to watch this clip, "Blogs in Plain English" by commoncraft. Click on the play symbol to watch:



Because we are limited in the time we can meet to practice on Sunday mornings, Dan and Joel decided to use this blog to communicate with you. This blog also has features to let us interact as a group. If we decided to use it as such we can have many of the elements of a weekly meeting (except playing and singing together) at the time that is most convenient to you. Some uses could be:

  • Letting you know the worship set a few days before church so you can prepare ahead of time
  • Posting an online copy of our schedule (in case you lose it, or need it while away from your paper copy)
  • Posting new songs we would like to introduce to the congregation for you to listen to for free
  • Communicating with each other (phone numbers, email or posting comments on the blog)
  • Discussing our new ideas for the band or new songs we could do in worship at Liberty
  • Discussing the Bible and what it says about worship
  • Sending out prayer requests, encouraging one another, and getting to know each other better
  • And more...
We hope that you find this a useful tool as we strive as a group to glorify God and to lead others in musical worship with the gifts and talents He has given us.

People spend so much time on their computers on meaningless subjects. I think I have finally found something to check out that is really worth my time. Thank you for taking your time to create this site. Musical worship is such an important part of what we "get to do". We need to honor God by realizing how important it is and giving it the respect it is due.
