I am actually pretty happy about this. I wondered if I would make it this far. I am happy to say I did.

He is a man who loves guitar, and watching him play it totally shows. He is one of those people who you can just tell gives it his all when he plays. Besides that, he is also a great pastor.<br /><br />The reason I am posting this blog, though, is not just to tell you a little about my friend, but to beat him to the punch. He often posts YouTubes of some great music. To me, the song Voodoo Child is like a pinnacle of guitar playing. It has been done by the likes of Buddy Guy, Jimi Hendrix, and Stevie Ray Vaughn. I wanted to post the links of this song before Mark did. I am posting them in order of my favorites. <br /><br /><a style="left: 0px ! important; top: 15px ! important;" title="Click here to block this object with Adblock Plus" class="abp-objtab-008538881091022643 visible ontop" href="http://www.youtube.com/v/1GSpbuFSr2o&hl=en&fs=1"></a><object height="344" width="425"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/1GSpbuFSr2o&hl=en&fs=1"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/1GSpbuFSr2o&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" height="344" width="425"></embed></object><br /><br /><a style="left: 0px ! important; top: 15px ! important;" title="Click here to block this object with Adblock Plus" class="abp-objtab-008538881091022643 visible ontop" href="http://www.youtube.com/v/RXDRQQ_5Ahw&hl=en&fs=1"></a><object height="344" width="425"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/RXDRQQ_5Ahw&hl=en&fs=1"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/RXDRQQ_5Ahw&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" height="344" width="425"></embed></object><br /><br /><a style="left: 0px ! important; top: 0px ! important;" title="Click here to block this object with Adblock Plus" class="abp-objtab-008538881091022643 visible ontop" href="http://www.youtube.com/v/lKzMJrQ3uqk&hl=en&fs=1"></a><object height="344" width="425"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/lKzMJrQ3uqk&hl=en&fs=1"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/lKzMJrQ3uqk&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" height="344" width="425"></embed></object>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01916229680074514072noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7703159211585595187.post-23077397362180603292008-11-10T07:25:00.004-05:002008-11-26T07:24:36.135-05:00A Worship PostMy friend Jeremy posted this a while back. I really have been thinking about it lately. I hear the comment, "it's just worship," a lot as though worship is some routine habit like anything else. I don't claim to be an expert on worship, but I think this video can say all I want to for the moment.<br /><br /><a style="left: 0px ! important; top: 0px ! important;" title="Click here to block this object with Adblock Plus" class="abp-objtab-008538881091022643 visible ontop" href="http://www.youtube.com/v/IpVsF4W8V2Y&hl=en&fs=1"></a><a style="left: 0px ! important; top: 0px ! important;" title="Click here to block this object with Adblock Plus" class="abp-objtab-008538881091022643 visible ontop" href="http://www.youtube.com/v/IpVsF4W8V2Y&hl=en&fs=1"></a><object height="344" width="425"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/IpVsF4W8V2Y&hl=en&fs=1"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/IpVsF4W8V2Y&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" height="344" width="425"></embed></object>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01916229680074514072noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7703159211585595187.post-51939296390286088042008-06-22T16:07:00.001-04:002010-05-29T11:24:21.852-04:00Heaven Bound<object height="344" width="425"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/0ClRxHBtI6Y&hl=en"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/0ClRxHBtI6Y&hl=en" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" height="344" width="425"></embed></object>Andreahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07661583602799129279noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7703159211585595187.post-73411929120021837962008-01-12T12:07:00.001-05:002010-05-29T11:40:31.636-04:00PodcastingFor Christmas I got a Microsoft Zune. It is a really neat thing. I can take it everywhere and even listen to it in my car. Like everyone who gets a new gadget, you want to know all of the ins and outs of what it can do. <br /><br />Enter Podcasting. I have found some really good podcasts that I am enjoying. Some are sermon audio, and some are teaching. Some are news and some are entertainment. <br /><br />If you are a total geek like me you really want to go to the next level. Since I am the webmaster at our church I thought I would use it as a pilot for podcasting. So, without further ado, here is the Lord of the Harvest <a href="http://www.lhcf.net/main/index2.php?option=com_podcast&feed=RSS2.0&no_html=1">Podcast</a><br /><div style="position: absolute; width: 28px; height: 28px; z-index: 1000; display: none;"> </div><br /><img src="chrome://piclens/content/launch.png" style="position: absolute; width: 35px; height: 29px; z-index: 1000; display: none;" alt="" />Andreahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07661583602799129279noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7703159211585595187.post-43622149612049072542007-09-18T13:23:00.001-04:002010-05-29T11:40:49.743-04:00Another Thing I Want To Be Able To DoI want to play this song like this.<br /><p><br /><object height="350" width="425"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/pEyEu-hS0fA"><param name="wmode" value="transparent"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/pEyEu-hS0fA" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" height="350" width="425"></embed></object></p>Andreahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07661583602799129279noreply@blogger.com2
