  • Six Weeks MODULE 3
    SIX WEEKS TO SUCCESSFUL CHRISTIAN SONGWRITING with John Chisum MODULE #3 - WRITING LYRICS THAT LAST INTRODUCTION Welcome to Module #3 in Six Weeks to Successful Christian Songwriting, an online coaching experience that is aimed at helping you write better songs and to learn to think like a professional Christian songwriter. I’m John Chisum, Managing Partner of Nashville Christian Songwriters, and our mission is “to empower Christian songwriters worldwide,” which is why we’re doing this online course. I hope you’re getting a LOT out of this so far and are beginning to grasp the insights and principles of excellent songwriting. These principles have served me well as a publisher and writer, so I trust you’ll be using them for years to come, too. In the last module, we worked through the entire Songbuilder’s Blueprint, going line by line through every section of a standard verse/chorus song in hopes of demonstrating the FUNCTION of each section and line. It is my hope that that ONE module alone would be worth what you’ve invested in this course. I would recommend that you go back to that module again, maybe even before you listen through this one, and get as many of the principles firmly rooted in your mind as you can before moving on. We will be reinforcing those pieces, of course, and repetition is a solid key to learning. No shame in repetition or athletes would never have to go to the gym again. !1 of 62! © Copyright 2016 Nashville Christian Songwriters Int’l LLC All Rights Reserved.

  • Preparation for Revival No
    Sermon #597 Metropolitan Tabernacle Pulpit 1 PREPARATION FOR REVIVAL NO. 597 A SERMON DELIVERED ON SUNDAY, OCTOBER 30, 1864, BY THE REV. C. H. SPURGEON, AT THE METROPOLITAN TABERNACLE, NEWINGTON. “Can two walk together, except they be agreed?” Amos 3:3. THE believer is agreed with God. The war between the most holy God and His offending creatures is over in the case of blood-washed sinners, not suspended by a truce, but ended forever by a peace which passes all understanding. The believer is fully agreed with God concerning the divine law, he confesses that “the law is holy, and just, and good,” he would not have it altered if he could. He rejoices in the way of God’s testimonies more than in all riches, yea, in His precepts does he take delight, praying evermore, “O let me not wander from your commandments.” He joyfully acknowledges that the Judge of all the earth rules mankind by a law in which there is no injustice, by statutes which subserve the best interests of the governed, while they secure the glory of the great Governor. The Christian “consents unto the law that it is good.” He is agreed with God, moreover, that a breach of the law should be visited with penalty, he would be unwilling that sin should go unpunished. He feels that the sanctions of law, however terrible, are absolutely necessary, and require to be severe. Above all, he is agreed with God in that great atonement for sin which God Himself has ordained and provided in the person of Jesus Christ.
