I haven't looked on here in forever so sorry to bring up an old post, but the dove is not on the stick, lol I didn't mean it to be anyway. And thanks for the great suggestion! I will look for it. I think we may have read it once, or I have anyway. Squeekers- still a good thread, still felt...

I can't post the songs I write, because I don't write "songs" like what people think fo now a days. I'm a band and orchestra composer and arranger, so it's hard to post that.

I graduated from college at 19, got married at 19, had written band pieces that were performed and on their way to publishing before I graduated high school...so on my wedding night (great time for this, let me tell you) I wonder if the reason I'm always in such a hurry to do things, is because...

Just read your other thread, op. Husbands are, overwhelmingly supposed to love their wives, but women submitting to her husband wasn't as popular. We've known this for some time, so I'm not understanding why the question was brought up, but- yes to both unless it would be harmful (in the sense...

I'm going on a diet (for real this time!). I noticed that clothes aren't fitting as well as before, but then again... I'm 5'7" as well. I was in a size 6 and can still fit but... it's tighter. Learning how to cook caused it. I personally don't mind and neither does hubby, but I've actually...

illinoismommy I agree. I'm kind of a believer in um... compassion. I'm not going to tell someone they are right when it's obviously wrong and I might say something, but with the way some people treat others on here... well, let's just say pride hasn't died quite yet

Because I wasn't made to be alone. I was made to be someones, and that someone was Jimbo :)

LOL, I don't blame you. There are two things I get flustered on... someone messing with music or messing with my husband! He means well, I think the reason he doesn't like focusing on the music is because he wants more people to pay attention to the sermon, which, who can blame him? I love...

I'm in a C.S. Lewis group that my pastor leads, and he made a simple comment on not choosing a church based on liking the music or not. He said it wasn't about the tune, but the words inside the tune. So I asked if he thought every worship song had to have words. He said yes, and they had to...

This is kind of a funny story... a couple years ago we were playing a song and the afore mentioned elder asked me if I like the key of Eb Major, because it's "hard" and that was "what the song was in". The song was in a sharp key, not anywhere related to Eb. I wasn't going to tell him, but...

Sometimes I don't tell my husband what's on my mind-even if it's important- because I know if I said whatever it was it would come out completely wrong, and either leave us both confused or lead to a fight because of the confusion. They usually get to him sooner or later, but I like to make...

I like your "observations'. Your list seems alright. :) Everybody's different. I don't think the childhood thing is that important, mainly because I figure God can bring people to a good disposition no matter what the circumstances. I guess I can't talk though, my parents are pretty awesome...

We had an elder take over the music ministry and basically kick everyone but him (a guitar player) and the pianist. The singers we had, and me on the woodwinds, weren't invited to "worship team meetings", and week after week, he would slowly give us the boot by saying "we don't need a flute in...

I just posted this in the creative arts forum, but I don't know how often people check that out so I thought I would post here too. I was wondering if I could get some thoughts. I believe that instrumental solos, piano solos, small ensembles, are a great way to worship God. I also believe that...

We'd been dating 5 years before getting married, so it was always us together, but hearing my name as Mrs. Hubby's name is so weird. Mrs. is a teacher name, not for me! It's been 7 months, and sometimes I'll still get a call for myself, and say I'm not there because that's my mother in laws name!
