Acts 17, Paul reasoned with the Athenians (a group of people who worshiped numerous idols) by citing the idol who was an “unknown god.” Paul said let me tell you who that is. This idol was probably worshiped and had unthinkable sacrifices laid at it’s feet. Yet, Paul still used this as a bridge between the gospel and the Athenians. It would be one thing if Viva la Vida was followed by a One Republic Song and then a Miley Cyrus song and then followed up by a feel good message. But it wasn’t, it was a transition. This is a Coldplay song, one that doesn’t advocate sin in anyway and probably kids think about Heaven when they hear it. You can tip the scale both ways, we can bring in outsiders and expect them to understand everything that’s going on without explanation or we could the opposite way and be so relevant that students think they’re at a feel good pep rally. There needs to be a middle ground somehow. High Schoolers are nervous and insecure to begin with. I can’t imagine what’s going through their minds when they step foot in a church. If God’s word is presented with integrity, I’m not at all worried about a Coldplay song to calm the nerves of young outsiders.

Good basic Tutorial, Personally for Hosanna I prefer just pads on keys haha but pads plus some on another keyboard is good too. Sometimes its more powerful if there are not as many little details like the small notes.

Wow. There are so many thing I agree with and disagree with on here that it would take me way too long to write, so all I have to say is this: The fact that people are so on fire about singing a secular song in a youth ministry group is a waste of God’s precious time.

A good friend of mine once said to me “Jesus doesn’t need defending, He is the son of God”. As long as we are speaking the truth to our students, loving the sinners the SAME as our brothers and sisters, reaching our gentle hands to the unbelievers and making meaningful relationships so they can learn from our actions not only our words we are furthering the kingdom of God.
