Our songs are often simple, and very melodic, as we are trying to make a way for everyone gathered in a room to find their way to God through the songs we sing.
Our musical goal is not to impress people with the capabilities of the band, or worse yet, with the capabilities of an individual, but rather to beautifully create a musical space for people to meet with God.
We have one goal ever before us as a team. We are playing so that the congregation might find a clear way to lay down the burdens they walked in with at the feet of Jesus, and to meet with Him in worship through the vehicle of the music that we make. We are poised as a worship team to serve, to use all our musical giftings to get out of the way, and to make a way, for people to get to that place of encounter.
