Psalm 150 (The Message)

Hallelujah!
Praise God in his holy house of worship, praise him under the open skies; Praise him for his acts of power, Praise him for his magnificent greatness; Praise with a blast on the trumpet, praise by strumming soft strings; Praise him with castanets and dance, praise him with banjo and flute; Praise him with cymbals and a big bass drum, praise him with fiddles and mandolin. Let every living, breathing creature praise God!
Hallelujah!

Goodbye Pastor Olds


The Nashville community lost a great minister and leader early this morning with the passing of Pastor Howard Olds. I worked closely with Pastor Olds on his "Faith Break" television spots. I produced these spots for the last couple of years and found Pastor Olds to be a kind and generous person who was concerned with the welfare of his church and community. Despite numerous battles with cancer Pastor Olds never lost his spirit. He will be missed. Please pray for his family, friends and congregation at Brentwood UMC. Pastor Olds had recently retired due to the serious condition of his cancer.

God Bless you Pastor Olds, may you finally rest in the arms of the savior, free from pain and worry. You have touched many souls and the time has come for your reward.

A Quick Update

We had a great service Sunday morning at New Beginnings, Kyle Netherton and his son joined us playing Trumpet and our good friend Susan Christians added her flute to the music. It was a joyful noise and none of us wanted it to end!!! Pastor Dan Shapley brought a great message on "Grace" to us all and I think we all left feeling filled and lifted up. It was just a wonderful way to start the week.



I've got a couple of pictures to share. These are from a recent show we did for the good folks at West Nashville Southern Methodist Church as part of their "Homecoming" celebration. We were a little rusty that day and were missing Mark Mills (our big toe) but it was fun to get out and sing the glory of God.



We start recording the new CD on August 16th then we will be back on the road trying to get out and play for all the folks that we had to put on hold during Mark's cancer surgery and recovery. It's going to be a busy fall in X-alt Land and I can't wait!!!!



See you all soon
