Well hey there friends!
Today was an awesome day! We are having the annual FamilyLife Staff Conference and we were blessed beyond measure with the worshipful experience of time spent with the amazing band Sanctus Real! This is a band that is well loved by the youth of America – and their parents.
It is an odd thing to see standing before you the men that you have sung with through your i-pod and daily Christian radio. Gaining an understanding of why they do what they do and how God works on them daily…just like He works on me…was refreshing. There were no “perfect Christians” standing up there singing.
Yes the music was amazing, but as I worshipped and listened what struck me was the words of their songs and the way Matt, the lead singer, sang them. He breathed meaning into his lyrics with every utterance. This man is a man after God’s own heart who uses his gifting to cry out to God, to worship God and to challenge himself…and his audience.
I would encourage you to stop reading my post and go to their site linked above and spend some time learning more about these Godly guys and the story behind their latest song…Lead Me.
What a privilege it was to spend the day with Sanctus Real…now I’m thinking…I sure would like to meet their wives!
