Last weekend I got to go on a very interesting and experiential weekend up in Seattle with a few other church planters.
While up there we were lead in worship by Brenton Brown who wrote such songs as Hallelujah (your love is amazing), Everlasting God, Lord Reign in me, Hosanna (praise is rising), and pretty much every other song we sing in and around Renovatus. The coolest part was that he seemed so oblivious to the fact that the rest of us were there worshiping with him. He was just joyfully singing to God.
We also had the chance to hear D-Mill (others call him Donald Miller, but I just call him D-Mill ’cause we’re pretty close like that) speak a few times. D-Mill had a lot of great things to say, but the best was probably when he would say things like “A few weeks ago when my friend Tony and I were talking over a couple pints of…umm…coffee…” it was a generally mainstream and potentially traditional crowd there listening to him but they all thought it was pretty funny.
I’d tell you more about the weekend but you’re probably not interested. It was powerful and weird, motivating and exhausting, boring and exciting all at once.
