11/18/09 -- SC Student Chapel

On November 18, 2009, SC hosted their annual student chapel. This year our theme was "SC Alive," and we focused on the many student gifts and talents here at the college! We had many students exercise their gifts -- Taylor Aldrich performed an interpretive dance, Audra Mann worshiped through paint, both SC worship teams led the community in worship and Aaron Duell, Molly Komlofske, Jessica Schaal, and Justin Williams all brought in a little bit of God's word!

BIM Week is just around the corner!!

If you haven't visited the website: www.sckans.edu/bim-week to register, please do so today!

Below is information about our Early Bird Workshop with Martin Rude and Friends!

The Crafting of Worship Music

Psalm 100 and 150 instructs everyone and everything to praise the God of creation, the God of covenant and the God of salvation in worship. What does the Lord require from those of us who lead this musical worship?

We will spend our time in three areas of focus: first, we will look at choosing the words in the songs that we author, second, the ways we use these songs in worship, and third, the power of sung theology in non-worship settings such as devotional, internet and radio settings.This time will be facilitated by various alumni involved with the writing and recording of the new Southwestern worship CD.

Martin Rude will help direct the discussion as we look into the theology of the songs and their role in worship and non-worship settings. Along with Martin, Steven Butler, Allison Reed, Rev. Mitch Todd and Travis Hastings will lead you down the path to creating a deeper worship experience with music.
