So...I'm in a band with some buds...We call ourselves Untitled Revelation...It's fun so far...We just started together a month or so ago...At school (Spring Arbor University) we have this chapel service every semester called Talents for Christ and anyone can sign up to play and show the school their talent God has given them or whatever...So I signed our band up for it and we were told that we could do it a few days later and such...Our band hasn't played a "real" show yet, except for at an open mic night where we only played one song, the same song we played here at chapel...Needless to say, I was a little freaked out, before we went on...Not because of the large crowd we played for...Because of all the types of people we were playing for...There just happen to be a large group of seniors from high school and parents visiting, and I knew that this would show what the school is about a little...And there are people at school who really don't like this type of music, which is normal...If you are wondering why this seems like a big deal, just listen to us in this video...Needless to say, I had a blast and went nuts...Even when I lost my strap at the beginning...And I also realized that worship to God can be in many forms (guitar swinging, screaming, headbanging, etc...)...As long as the heart is in the right place...And when people cheered at the end I realized that more people enjoyed it than I thought would...I'll be darn... :)
The video is too big to put on here...So check it out at either

Fun Stuff!
I believe one of the ways God finally reached my heart was through the music of non-traditional Christian bands.
There is a saying: The way to a man's heart is through his stomach. I think this also applies for music- it's just a different kind of appetite.
Wow! That was enthusiastic applause at the end. I hope you'll have a great ministry together.
