Album on the way…

Follow You.

Album release is coming soon… clarinex generic due before Christmas in Australia, and in April 2009 in the US/UK…

But of course you could order direct from hillsongmusic.com even if you do live somewhere else in the world!

I really am excited about this album, some very different tracks and also my first vocal ever… with Dan Lee-Archer (aka Funny Man Dan), a hip-hop groove called ‘Love Never Fails’.

Giving birth

So it’s midnight and I just finished a song (hopefully) for our upcoming kids album.

My wife Beci is in bed and here I am all inspired about kids worshipping God and keeping her awake.

I think it will be a powerful song. Talking about Jesus being near, and wanting to spend the rest of our lives in His house. “I’m so glad you’re here, I’m so glad you’re near…” well I don’t want to ruin it :)

But man is it a process. Getting a song written is like giving birth to a baby that sometimes refuses to come out. Or at least that cialis without prescription is our experience.

This year has proven to be just as tough as always to find the God songs. But I guess not much worthwhile is easy. The pain of creating can lead to great beauty.

I hope and pray that is true for this years album, that the kids at our church and ultimately around the world would encounter Jesus. Because if they do, they will never forget it. And they will never forget him.

Christine Caine on Conference

Just a quick link to Christine Caine’s report on conference!

Love this!!

A powerful moment for me was when I was teaching an elective on evangelistic preaching and altar calls and halfway through I just felt to stop and do a salvation altar call. (Remember: I was in the midst of teaching how to give one.) Twenty-four people surrendered their lives to Jesus then and there – it was AMAZING…

Hillsong Capetown

So the latest Hillsong Church started meeting today in cialis generic overnight target=”_blank”>Capetown South Africa!

They are meeting in the Cape Town International Convention Centre. And have had five services on their first Sunday!! The auditorium sits 620 people so this is a MASSIVE start for the church!

Service times | Sunday 9am, 11am, 4pm and 6pm
*PLUS EXTRA ONE-HOUR SERVICE @ 8pm*

The kids team over there already has gotten the curriculum we are doing right now, they have the same tee-shirts we have in Australia, and are running programs for every service over the first Sunday!

I’m not even sure who is running the whole kids programs yet but it is very exciting to see the church establish itself over in Capetown!

God is good!

Bible College

Hillsong International Leadership CollegeI have never really talked about our Bible College on this blog before… so with the Feb intake coming up now is a great time to give a shout out for our awesome college…

Check them out here: Hillsong International Leadership College

We have thousands of students from all over the world… heaps from the U.S. some from the U.K. lots from Australia (funny that), South Africa, Norway, New Zealand…

You get the picture… there is also a Children’s Ministry Stream which you need to come to — if just for the fact that you get to hang out with me!

If that isn’t enough :) here is what the website says about the course:

Hillsong Kids, the children’s ministry of Hillsong Church, is a dynamic and exciting program for families with newborn babies to children in Year 5 at school. Students who study in this stream have the opportunity to learn from Hillsong Kids leaders and be involved in a cutting edge children’s program where the children are discipled, connected and have a whole lot of fun along the way!

Students who complete this specialisation will also complete a range of industry approved training units.

This specialisation is available at Certificate IV in Ministry and Diploma of Ministry level.
