Songs of Worship in Ukraine

A colleague of ours with Artists in Christian Testimony Intl is a music ministry educator in Ukraine. As the Russian attacks were imminent, our colleague sent a post to A.C.T. Intl artists in 47 countries encouraging us to begin infusing oft-sung Ukrainian songs of worship in our local congregational assemblies. Three of the selections are original compositions by musical worship leaders in Ukraine, perhaps not known Stateside. YouTube links and link to the full story can be provided.

What We Want for Christmas

12/10/2020

Vikki recoils at her kids’ Christmas list in her holiday show, “True Gifts: Stories of Birth & Renewal” But KIT’s wish list makes her smile... and pray.

It is not the easiest question to answer: “What do you want for Christmas?”
A response seems so selfish. So greedy. It is the seed that spawned Black Friday, Cyber Monday and broke January. That question in 2020 brings to mind other thoughts. With another predicted wave of business closures and restrictions because of the pandemic, the theme song of this shopping season maybe a mashup of “Brother, Can You Spare a Dime?” answered by “I Got Plenty of Nothin’.

Despite her shy off-stage persona, to Marissa Brown, leading congregants through musical worship is a natural as breathing.

The phrase "born-again Christian" is redundant.

One cannot be Christian unless born again, as Jesus explained and was quoted in the scripture of John.

The "born again" in His reference is rebirth of a man's natural spirit to rebel against God. That is, to disobey God, to rely on self, to think of self first. These are the basic elements of life collectively tagged "sin" -- Jesus says this human spirit, the spirit of sin -- must be "reborn" to submit to God's will and guidance. This is done, first, by recognizing and acknowledging the life of Christ as revealed in Scriptures, then by living according to His teachings. In its simplest expression, this is what it means to be born again. To renew a spirit to follow God's lead.

But what of those people who were born with such a spirit. The spirit to follow God and not sin that seems intrinsic from birth. Are there such people? Especially in our age?

When speaking of worship leaders we often restrict the phrase to an individual who plays an instrument or two, organizes the music, runs the rehearsal, plans the Order of Service, perhaps conducts the congregational sing-a-along, and perhaps solos on numerous songs.

We learned along ago that a leader of worship is more than this, may or may not have musical gifts, and recognizes that worshipping God is not confined to a timed-music presentation during a Service of Worship. Worship is a way of life.

Michelle Perez-Campbell is a leader of worship.

Cami Myers is part of Kingdom Impact Theater Ministries, the Next Generation, though she’s been with us awhile.

Maybe you've seen her greeting people at shows at our hospitality table, or sitting in singing with the ladies’ worship ensemble, Chos3n. She’s also behind the scenes (or out front) photographing our performances, such as those she did for “Freedom Song” promotions.

All of those activities she began as a high school intern. She’s now preparing for her senior year of college, studying psychology and creative writing, wondering how to use them in the "adulting" world to come.
