  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

    What does worship really means

    I shared part of this in a similar thread "What is worship anyway?" The word "worship" in John 4:23 is actually "proskuneo" which is to adorn, fall down and kiss the feet of. The word "worship" in Romans 12:1 is actually "latreia" which is service rendered to God. We often mix up two...

    Stop facebook live ??

    As the OP said, there's no issue with the radio broadcast. I was just offering a different perspective - because I've seen it all over: the fear of lost "tithes and offerings" driving decisions. I agree, we NEED to keep meeting together, physically, but it's REALLY nice to offer the option...

    Stop facebook live ??

    I don't think many folks will argue the benefit of streaming. I think that OP has a deeper issue to contend with: a heart matter. It sounds like the person on the board/council is worried that "If they don't come to church we won't get their money". I've seen it many times... fear of revenue...

    For churches with contemporary style services is there a greater need for keyboardists or guitarists

    Lol that's a matter of opinion and direction of the song and music director. I have had bassists play the lead parts of songs before ( intros or interludes and such) and it sounds amazings and adds so much depth. Not on every song, but some. You were talking about being easy to play, not...

    Great video on the versatility of keyboardists who KNOW their tools.

    For churches with contemporary style services is there a greater need for keyboardists or guitarists

    If you are only playing the root, then yes, super easy, super boring. Same with lead - if you are only playing the melody, easy and boring. I just don't think bass is the easiest to learn. Honestly, rhythm guitar is the easiest. Learn about 6 to 8 chord shapes, slap a capo on and Bob's your...

    Musician? What is your opinion on tampering with basic diatonic chords?

    Not sure why I'm just now seeing this. I'm not a theory master, but I do understand it. It sounds like your worship leader plays the guitar and wants everyone to play what he's playing lol! I love the iii and vii dim where they are, but most guitar chord sheets have the I/iii and vii dim 7th...

    For churches with contemporary style services is there a greater need for keyboardists or guitarists

    A keyboardist who knows how to work a motif/nord3/kronos with synths and a midi controller is WAY more versatile (to the overall presence of music) than a guitarist with a Helix. The reason is the modern keyboard can swell mutliple sounds in and out, add drum pads, clicks, or ANYTHING - most of...

    I dont know what to do with this bunch !

    I agree with Tolworth John... clearly define what you WILL do, or ask the "Board" for a list of prioritized tasks and do those. I'll be honest with you though, while reading through your post I kept thinking "Does God still want him there? Is his season over there and is it time to move to...

    Is your praise team, aka worship team, comprised of MUSIC ONLY people, oblivious to everyone else?

    Oh, I'm well aware that's ministry, and I'm not complaining. I was offering a differing perspective to someone who's seemingly not understanding of what those of us IN ministry go through, what we are keeping tabs of, where we are going, where our focus is trying to remain, and all the while...

    What's Wrong with Modern Christian Music?

    Yeah, Slothman, totally agree.. Talk about harsh judgment. God can talk through anyone, through any medium. Stop saying what you "like" or "favor" is the only good thing out there and by all means STOP acting like it's what God wants. How about we are all uniquely created, therefore we can...

    The word "worship" in John 4:23 is actually "proskuneo" which is to adorn, fall down and kiss the feet of. The word "worship" in Romans 12:1 is actually "latreia" which is service rendered to God. You see, you are mixing up two completely different meanings here. Yes, worship should come from...

    What will Modern Worship V2.0 look like?

    My opinion, though not popular, is based off of almost 25 years of church Music Ministry service, 12+ of that as a "Worship Pastor". It is 100% a heart issue, and it starts from the top. Worship leaders these days don't always Pastor their team, they manage, administer, and "lead" their team...

    What will Modern Worship V2.0 look like?

    About 15 years ago when I decided it was time to learn how to do what I felt God calling me to "Leading Worship", I discovered Paul's ability to teach. In fact his website was (and is) Home Page | Leadworship it's all in the name. I bought all of his books, his dvds and learned from him where...
