Real Worship

I spent an afternoon with local producer Danny, “Dee-Tech” Conran this week.  At the end of our session, we had come up with this song idea.  It’s a first-draft, demo recording.

It would be good to get some feedback about the song.  Have a listen & leave a comment!

“Walk With Me” – Mike Ellis & Dee-Tech

We recorded this song ourselves; Ali wrote it & Adrian put together a video to acompany it:

It’s one of around 8 songs that we recorded at the Academy (hopefully some more will be ready soon).  Let me know what you think…

For some reason, this kept churning over on the inside of me; the more I thought about it, the more I began to think that God’s plan, His heart, His desire has always been for relationship.  Not only that, but the characteristics, the hallmarks, the very essence of the relationship we’ve been called into with Father Son & Holy Spirit is supposed to infuse & to permeate our relationships with each other.  In John 17:22 Jesus Himself prayed to Father asking, “…that they may be one as we are one”.

In my reading, I was drawn to books that spoke on the subject; books like, “Authentic Relationships” (Wayne & Clay Jacobsen), “Loving Our Kids On Purpose” (Danny Silk) & “Becoming A True Spiritual Community” (Larry Crabb).

Last Sunday in Exeter I got to share some of what God’s been saying to me about it.  Rather than posting the usual style “Sunday Set List”, I thought I’d put up a recording of what I said…
