The Harp and the Bowl

I'm a week away from attending the Lift Worship Leader Conference being hosted by Passion City Church in Atlanta.  That's the church plant by the Passion folk: Louie Giglio, Chris Tomlin, Matt Redman and the like.

I'm stoked!  And for good reason. 

Several years back I was part of a small songwriting conference put on at Northpoint Church (Louie's former church) that included Tomlin and Redman and others.  It was fabulous and inspiring.  Also, it was at this conference that Matt Redman's Facedown album was recorded.  It was an honor to be part of that amazing project - in my opinion, hands down Matt's best yet. 

I say yet, because at Lift, Matt will be recording another live album! I am hoping it will surpass the high water mark of Facedown.  They just sent the registrants a few of Matt's newest songs to listen to so we can get familiar with them ahead of the conference, and though I'm morally obliged not to share them with you, I'll just say that it's going to be close!

It's been quite a few years since I attended a WL conference, and I'm looking forward to whole experience.  There is nothing quite like worshiping with a whole bunch of worship leaders!  Plus I have the honor of attending with my dear sweet beautiful wife. 

I am expecting great things, so be sure to check back here for my post-event report.
