Hey Everybody - this information will be too late for many of you ... as this happens TODAY in a few hours ... but was newsworthy enough to post a blog about it:

Free Webinar Today, Feb 12:

Do I really need permission to make copies of CDs, MP3 files or arrangements for rehearsal purposes? What if we post audio files for download on a password protect website page? You want to maintain integrity in worship activities, but making rehearsal copies is one of the most confusing and misunderstood issues you face.

This Thursday's CCS webinar will answer these questions and guide you through the maze of LEGALLY producing rehearsal copies.

With a Live Question and Answer Session!!!!

Hey Everybody,

Today is "freeplay friday" - anything goes ... let's hear what's on your mind today.

Then the Church moved to Greece, where it became a philosophy. Then it moved to Rome, where it became an institution. Next, it moved to Europe where it became a culture. And, finally it moved to America, where it became an enterprise."]]> Sat, 14 Feb 2009 00:05:36 -0800 http://virb.com/fredmckinnon/posts/text/1087632 http://virb.com/fredmckinnon/posts/text/1083843 Let's face it.]]> Wed, 11 Feb 2009 22:27:14 -0800 http://virb.com/fredmckinnon/posts/text/1083843 http://virb.com/fredmckinnon/posts/text/1083842 One of the coolest things that has been happening over at TheWorshipCommunity.Com is the "ReVue" series ... where instead of having one person (often, the same person) do a review of new worship resources, we get multiple reviews on the same resource.

We call this the "ReVue" and we just published a "ReVue" on a brand new album released by Integrity Music called "Light in the Darkness" from Champions Center in Las Vegas, NV.

Led by worship leader Freddy Rodriguez, this album has a unique blend of styles, grooves, and songs.]]> Wed, 11 Feb 2009 22:27:13 -0800 http://virb.com/fredmckinnon/posts/text/1083842 http://virb.com/fredmckinnon/posts/text/1079775
