It’s important from time to time to pause and reflect. Moses reminded the people of Israel that they must not forget what God had taught them:
“Only be careful, and watch yourselves closely so that you do not forget the things your eyes have seen or let them fade from your heart as long as you live. Teach them to your children and to their children after them.” (Deuteronomy 4:9 NIV11)

Today I&#39;m bringing you some thoughts inspired by the book “for the audience of one” by my Mike Pilavachi.
In the book he references 2 Chronicles 7:1-6 and the extraordinary corporate worship experience at the dedication of the temple. As Mike writes,

“Let’s lead worship in such a way as to edify the church.” Have you heard that phrase, or something similar? Sounds noble. It’s got a nice Biblical ring to it. But what does it mean? And how does it inform the way we lead corporate worship?
