      Saturday, June 09, 2007Bored-but there was the Hillsong Worship Workshop!
Yeah. That's right, I'm bored. Funny, don't you think? I mean, my exams are over yet I'm sprawled over the couch hardly doing anything useful.
 Ok, it's not that true. Sprawling over the couch, I mean. I have done some useful things. For example, spring cleaning my room (it's not actually done yet, but I'm getting there. Yes, I do have a lot of things pushed aside in there), go shopping for my Graduation Ball, etc.
 
 So, "Why are you bored?" you may ask. Well, It's because my most of my friends have just finished their exams last week (Wednesday) so I kind of have to wait for them finish before I can go out and celebrate with them. The fun and partying starts on Monday!!
 
 Well, ok. I did attend a Hillsong Worship Workshop today. I was awesome. But the downfall of it was that there didn't seem to be enough time. Overall, I did learn some tips. There was the vocals, piano, guitar, bass/drums and production. I joined the Piano/Keyboard Workshop.
 
 From session one (where everyone was together), here's what I learnt:
 
 Our Gifts
 
 Everyone is gifted. Everything we have is a gift from God. BUT you must be open for corrections.God has given us gifts for a reason
 James 1:17
 1 Corinthians 4:7
 1 Corinthians 7:7
 
 God wants us to rise to significance
 He wants us to make an impact in the world. Gos has given each of us a unigue gift so we must use it in a way to honor God. The greatest Gift is nothing without love
 Your charater is more important than your gifting.1 Corinthians 13:1-3
 Our gift is used for the Church, to advance the Kingdom of God.
 1 Peter 4:10Ephesians 4:11
 Our gift is a stewardship
 Our gift was given to us so that we may develop them. We have to put in the time and practise out gift, put value in that practise. PURPOSEFUL practise makes perfect.Matthew 25
 Your gift is to be valued
 Honor your gift, so don't hide it. Our gift is to be enjoyed
 Enjoy what you do.Psalm 100:2
 John 10:10
 Our gift needs to be brought to the alter.
 The alter is a place of surrendering ourselves to GodHebrews 13:10
 
 And the piano/keyboard workshop: Be mindful of the culture. Communicate something that's not of the world, wait for your time to come in to creep into that time crack where a person can be ministered. The message needs to be peculiar to capture people's attention. You don't have to be too sophisticated. Don't double the melodyDon't be too bouncy-it'll sound disjointed and messyDon't be set in chord shapes-split the chords up to create a smoother soundDon't be too chordy. Use 1(bass), 3(major or minor), 7(minor 7th or dominant 7th).Add colour-use the add9 or add2. This adds breath and enlargens the sound. Use your creativity and your ears to listen to what other people are playing.
