Church news for Thursday, June 16, 2011

In a similar sense, the Holy Spirit is like a fire that can sweep through a church and keep away the chill of coldness. It can even bring about great results, such as boldness in God’s word, unity, sharing, witness and great grace. Sadly, some churches have lost the fire of the Holy Spirit (Revelation 2:4) and have become cold and dead places of worship. Our special music was a couple of songs from the VBS week as sung by our youth. As you know, the youth of the church held their VBS on a camping trip at Brierfield. They have reported a very good weekend of camping, Bible study, fellowship and fun times. The teachers, directors and all adults that took part have reported a very enjoyable time together and worshiping the Lord. Sunday night we observed the VBS commencement. The director, Laura Liveoak, gave a special thanks to all the boys and girls for coming to school this week, and thanks to parents for taking time to bring their children. We are so thankful for all the teachers and workers and their teaching of the Bible and VBS songs. Special thanks to the kitchen workers for the good refreshments that were enjoyed. A big thanks to Laura Liveoak for stepping in as director at such short notice. God bless you and all the 67 boys and girls that were enrolled this week. The choir special was “Sheltered in the Arms of God,” followed by “Nearer, My God to Thee,” “Leaning on Thee” and special music by Billy and Carolyn Maddox, “I Hope We Walk the Last Mile Together,” especially for Mary Joyce and Jerry Gilliland, Danny and Ann Eiland, Ray and Myrtis Enfinger and all recent golden wedding anniversaries. The Lord’s invitation and message was given by Bro. Tony. Pentecost was to be the “birthday” of the Church. God knew the apostles were going to be embattled in that daily war between God and Satan. This was going to be the answer as to, “Is this all there is?” The answer, of course, is a resounding “No.” Life is so much yet to come; we go back to our birth, our death and all the in-between instead of preparing for eternity, in one or two places — forget heaven and hell — just take these two things: You are going to spend all eternity with God with all the good things that you can (there are those descriptions that we don’t know for sure), or we can take that other place, hell. We have also heard it described. There is one thing for sure — you are going to spend eternity with God or separated from God. That should be the sobering fact to wake us all up! When it feels like you are carrying a cross and you have absolutely too much on your plate, you don’t have to look far — just right here in our own church. What a blessing we had when I was asked by the youth, “Can we do any outside work for you?” What a blessing, folks! At a time like this, we must have the finest youth anywhere. When I told Lavada, laying there, not able to speak, she smiled and said, “My boys!” David and Sonja Horn, two of our newest members, they hit the ground running, have been working and having fun since. Calvary Independent Baptist Church had a great time of fun and fellowship Saturday night at the Birmingham Barons game. The fireworks show afterwards was awesome. Sunday morning’s preaching service kicked off a series of sermons on God’s will for our individual lives as we strive to worship and serve  Him. Sunday night we started in Revelation chapter 6. All in all we had some great teachings from the word of God beginning with Sunday School and lasting through all services. Thank you, Jesus. Come visit with us during any of our services: Sunday School at 9 a.m., Junior Church and adult worship service at 10 a.m., Sunday evening service at 5:30 p.m. and Wednesday night service at 6:30. Sunday night we had our monthly business meeting.  Justin Gray was visiting our service and sang us a good special.  Bro. Steve brought us a message on spiritual gifts taken from Romans 12:1-9.  The Holy Spirit’s endowments of gifts to Christians are tools to be used in building up the Lord’s churches.  If we have the fruit of the Spirit (love), which is mentioned in verse 9, we will in turn have the attitudes, which are in verses 11-16. Pray this week for James Moore, Charles Bryant, Elza Enriquer, Dylan Cullum, Hunter Moore, Austin Chandler, Betty McGee, April Bazzell, Chris and Sonja Cox, Jim Beck, Mandy Mims, Pete and Karl Burnett, James Pettie, William Thomas, baby Jacob Helms, Lula Spigner, Hazel Boswell, all the people in storm areas, our missionaries, and all families that lost loved ones. Sunday night’s service was dedicated to our Vacation Bible School. We appreciate Lynn and Elizabeth Jones for leading us this year. All workers did an excellent job, and we ask God to bless you for your unselfish dedication to our children here at Samaria.  If you are looking for a place to worship in spirit and truth, please join us at Samaria on Sunday mornings at 9:45 for Sunday School and 11 for worship. We meet Sunday evenings for worship only at 5.  May God bless you is our hope and prayer.

60 Musicals Songs for Men That Cross the Fourth Wall

You’re a Musicals singer looking for a song that can reach out to an audience, one that you can play to them directly. You’re looking for a “House number”.

A song that can reach across the fourth wall of a theatre (the invisible wall between the characters and the audience) is called a House number. Characters in a play don’t usually realise that they are being watched by a house full of people, so House numbers can be rare.

In Musical theater there are only a few true House numbers, but you can actually make other songs cross the fourth wall fairly easily. Here are 60 songs for men that can be sung to the audience directly. I’ve listed the songs in three categories: the true House number

the soliloquy.

The first category is the true House number: The singer is fully aware that the audience is there and “comes out” of the show.

If You Want To Die In Bed, and American Dream from Miss Saigon, and Oh What A Circus from Evita are good examples of the true House number. Sondheim writes excellent House numbers, such as Comedy Tonight and Everybody Ought To Have A Maid from A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum, or Invocation to the Gods And Instructions to the Audience from The Frogs (not often performed as it’s set in a real swimming pool).

In the second category, the character plays to an audience on stage as part of the show. The most obvious song for the men is Master of the House from Les Miserables. The MC from Cabaret usually expands the Berlin nightclub audience to include the actual theatre audience with songs such as Willkommen and If You Could See Her. In Barnum, The Museum Song is sung to a general group of people, as is Bigger Isn’t Better. Springtime for Hitler is sung to the audience in The Producers, as is Beautiful Girls (from Follies).

Consider the songs Use What You Got from The Life, Pinball Wizard from Tommy, and I Am What I Am from La Cage Aux Folles. Stand Up And Fight from Carmen Jones, and Get Me To The Church On Time from My Fair Lady can be a house numbers. You could also get away with All I Care About Is Love, and Mr Cellophane, from Chicago An unusual one is Come Up To My Office from Parade, where the leading man “re-enacts” a scene in a courtroom, according to the imaginary version of his young female co-workers.

Tribute Musicals are a useful source of House numbers such as That’ll Be The Day and Johnny Be Good from Buddy, or I Want To Break Free from We Will Rock You. Virtually any song from Hedwig And The Angry Inch would work, including Sugar Daddy and Angry Inch. 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee has an implied audience for the spelling contest, and the “children” sing songs such as My Unfortunate Erection straight to them. I Can Do That (from A Chorus Line) is sung to Zach who is actually seated at the back of the real audience.
