What’s in a Name?

September 22, 2010 by Joey Hughes Leave a Comment

Proverbs 22 verse 1 says “A good name is more desirable than great riches; to be esteemed is better than silver or gold.”

I’ve often wondered what people think when they hear my name.

What does it mean to have a “Good Name?” Does it mean everyone likes you? Does it mean you’ve always been good?

Another question that comes to mind is, if the passage states that a good name is “more desirable,” does that mean that there will be times when we will be faced with the choice between riches and a good name?

What do people think when they hear your name? Do you have a good name? What does it mean to you to have a good name?

Let’s talk… Tell me what you think!

What Do You See?

September 21, 2010 by Joey Hughes Leave a Comment

2 Kings 6 verses 15 thru 17 tells us the account of the time when Elisha and his servant found themselves in a rather sticky situation.
The servant asks the question that I feel many of us have asked or may be asking right now: “What do we do now?”
Elisha answers by saying “Don’t worry. The ones who are with us are greater that the ones who are against us.”
The servant replies saying “But sir, its only you and me! There no one here with us!”
Elisha prays that the Father would open his eyes and he then sees the HEAVENLY army that is gathered there to do battle for them.
What do YOU see today?
Do you see your enemies? Do you see circumstances that are too great for you to walk through?
Or can you see the army of God that is encamped around you just waiting to hear your voice commanding them to move into battle?
I encourage you today to allow God to open your eyes to His mighty power and abundant provision for your life!

How do you schedule rehearsals?

September 20, 2010 by Joey Hughes Leave a Comment

Looking for some feedback here…

I’m thinking of changing our weekly rehearsal schedule for the worship teams at our church. We presently have a front line vocals rehearsal, a band rehearsal, and a separate choir rehearsal each week.

Those of you who are worship leaders, music directors, etc., what is your weekly rehearsal schedule? Have you made schedule changes recently? Why did you make these changes? How did your people/ teams respond to these changes? How have these changes benefited or not benefited your ministry?

Leave your comments please…
