"I Recommend Jesus" Lyrics

Well, I recommend Jesus
(I recommend Jesus)
For all your needs
(For all your needs)
If you're in sin
(If you're in sin)
He'll set you free
(He'll set you free)

Listen, whenever you're feeling down
(If you feel down)
As down as can be
(As down as can be)
I recommend Jesus
(I recommend Jesus)
For all your needs
(For all your needs)

Repeat

Verse:
Listen church, I'm coming to you as plan as I know how 
Talking about the one who can do anything right now
Sitting on His throne waiting on you to call
He's the only one that can catch you when you fall

Whenever you're feeling down
(If you feel down)
Down as can be
(Down as can be)
I recommend Jesus
(I recommend Jesus)
For all your needs
(For all your needs)

Funny Video: Me!Church

Hello!

I grew up in churches but have been out of the church for a while and recently with a renewed faith have been church shopping, literally going to at least two dozen looking for the right fit.

One Sunday morning I admitted that to a church member where I was visiting, and he seemed to reply rather disdainfully, "Oh, so you're a church shopper."

Images are Screen Captures from the video

Having heard this before...it seems many in the Christian church believe that you should simply start attending a nearby church and become a member there.

But when else does that ever apply?

Do we buy the first car we test drive...or the first home "for sale" we visit?

Of course, as in love, some people are Blessed to find the right match on the first try...but don't most of us look and search for almost everything before finding the right match?


Don't most of us spend time finding the right college/university, mechanic, doctor, lawyer, accountant etc, etc, etc?

Have you ever heard someone say that after they discovered their favorite restaurant that they go way out of their way to dine there, because they love the food, the service, and deserts etc"?

So shouldn't we look for the right church home...until we find it?

----------------------------------------------

The upside to all my searching is that I've certainly seen a lot of different worship...umm...rather to say..."styles" of church services.

From the quaint old fashioned, but quite "dead" little churches singing hymns from many decades ago...to dazzling MEGA-Churches with thousands of members, a modern light show and rockin' "praise" band.

I've attended churches who advertise themselves like a night club and who's messages seemed designed to entertain and wow...but aspired to little else.

I've heard sermons where the only focus was SEX, SEX, SEX and have felt in my spirit pastors "ooze" sexual lust from the pulpit.

 I've sat in churches and received mechanical "hello's and welcome's"...which is only slightly better than churches where I've come and gone and was literally not greeted in any way.

Recently, I attended a service where they turned off the lights, and while the preacher prayed loudly into the microphone people shouted prayers all over the room.  It was bedlam...and not the order Paul commands in 1 Corinthians 14.

So, yes, I'm still looking and pray that in time I can find a church to call home.  (I do plan to go back to one soon that I've attended a few times, where I was given a friendly greeting and the Spirit of God seemed to be there!)

----------------------------------------------

Perhaps all my searching is why I found the video "meChurch" so amusing.

Even if you love your church and didn't have a hard time finding it...you may enjoy it as well.

Live Christian Music Video: Shout To The Lord! Oslo Gospel Choir

Hi!

This morning I had the words of the song "Shout To The Lord" going through my mind and I set out to find a good version to post here.

After some time of searching I finally found this beautiful Live version by the Oslo Gospel Choir.

The lyrics are shown in the video and have also been added at the bottom of this post. 

Christian Worship Music: In Christ Alone

Antonio Ciseri's - Pontius Pilate presenting
a scourged Christ to the people - 1871

Worship song In Christ Alone has a timeless feel to it.  Enough so that some may wonder if it is an old Church Hymn.

But according to an article about it on Crosswalk.com the song was written in 2002 by Stuart Townend and Keith Getty.  

It says there "that Townend and Getty both admit they are motivated by the idea of capturing biblical truth in songs and hymns that will not only cause people to express their worship in church, but will build them up in their Christian lives."

This version of the song is sung by Adrienne Liesching & Geoff Moore, and is set to scenes from The Passion Of The Christ.


Listen to the words and let it's message encourage and Bless you!




1 Corinthians 3:11

For no one can lay any foundation other than the one already laid, which is Jesus Christ.

Psalm 148

¹ Praise the Lord.

Praise the Lord from the heavens;
    praise him in the heights above.
² Praise him, all his angels;
    praise him, all his heavenly hosts.
³ Praise him, sun and moon;
    praise him, all you shining stars.
⁴ Praise him, you highest heavens
    and you waters above the skies.

⁵ Let them praise the name of the Lord,
    for at his command they were created,
⁶ and he established them for ever and ever—
    he issued a decree that will never pass away.

⁷ Praise the Lord from the earth,
    you great sea creatures and all ocean depths,
⁸ lightning and hail, snow and clouds,
    stormy winds that do his bidding,
⁹ you mountains and all hills,
    fruit trees and all cedars,
¹⁰ wild animals and all cattle,
    small creatures and flying birds,
¹¹ kings of the earth and all nations,
    you princes and all rulers on earth,
¹² young men and women,
    old men and children.

¹³ Let them praise the name of the Lord,
    for his name alone is exalted;
    his splendor is above the earth and the heavens.
¹⁴ And he has raised up for his people a horn,
    the praise of all his faithful servants,
    of Israel, the people close to his heart. 

Praise the Lord.
