ANXIETY

A few weeks ago I told part of my story at Crosspoint. It’s a story that started almost a year ago when I had a panic attack in the middle of the night. (Does “anxiety attack or panic attack” sound less girly?) I literally thought I was dying that night. Turns out that it wasn’t […]

WHY DO WE SING?

“Why do we sing?” This question has been the foundation of the David Crowder*Band Fantastical Church Music Conference (CFCMC for short) that just wrapped up a few hours ago.  I couldn’t think of a better reason to gather, discuss, and learn than over a question as vast or profound as this one. Wrestling with this […]
