Matt Redman
A few months ago, internationally renowned worship artist, Matt Redman, visited our local church in Fayetteville for a worship night and service, as well as a workshop the next morning. This was a huge deal, as Matt is one of the best songwriters and musicians in the christian music world in our generation. He's written over 300 hymns/choruses, some of his most popular being:
Let My Words Be Few
The Wonderful Cross
The Heart of Worship
Better is One Day
Blessed Be Your Name
...among many, many more. I was especially excited about this because, for those who don't know, I have a passion for singing, especially gratitude to my Creator! The evening service was a worship service and a talk by Matt. He is a very witty, little British man with a very good sense of humor.
The following morning he gave a 2 session workshop for leaders and the house choir on songwriting and worship. If you are at all interested in songwriting, check it out! The sessions aren't very long and I know it will be an encouragement to many.
