Small Choir--BIG SOUND!

If a choir director is really blessed---I'm talking about a bucket of blessings dumped on him---everything comes together in just the right way.  Everything seems to slide into proper alignment and the music seems to flow from the choir like he has always dreamed it would.

Of course, it helps if the choir has worked their tails off for eight weeks on the music!

Such was the case with the SSBC Worship Choir this past Sunday morning.  Palm Sunday.  We presented the Easter musical "Jesus Saves!"  The spirit of God was palpable as the choir related the story of Easter in song and spoken word.

Our choir is small.  Sixteen members strong.  But they sounded twice as big Sunday!  What a blessing to stand in front of them, wave my arms around, and pretend I had anything to do with that musical moment that was a true "God Thing".

I can tell you that our choir's Mission Statement was in full evidence Sunday:  "To lead the congregation of Springfield Southern Baptist Church into a growing relationship with Jesus Christ by drawing them into an authentic worship experience, igniting passion for His purpose through musical excellence and lives that reflect the character of Christ."

I hope you enjoy this excerpt from the musical.

You know, I really am blessed.
