I am a professional musician, worship leader, small business owner, and freelance writer with a chemical engineering degree. But that's just my resume; my profile of qualifications is only one of the ways in which I am unique. Here I chronicle my personal and professional goals and my efforts to achieve them. Occasionally I fail. Mostly, I take daily baby steps toward all my long-term goals. Much like the stories I pen, the songs I compose, and the businesses I run, I am always a work in progress.
Sadly, because they're different services. How great if I could just do the same thing twice. But I have the band at 9:30, and it's just me and my guitar at 11:15. Some 9:30 songs can't be done at 11:15 because I don't have drums and things. That, plus, I have more responsibility over worship stuff at 11:15, so sometimes I need to help plan the children's message, confessions, activities done around tables (this service isn't in the pews) - that sort of thing. At 9:30 I'm strictly responsible for music.
The bummer is, 11:15 isn't taking off. So it feels like a lot of work for very few (if any) people each week. That might be part of what's sapping my enthusiasm.
