I live in Rockwall Texas, a smallish town 25 miles east of downtown Dallas. Although there are people who hardly ever drive into Dallas, I end up going in for a lot of things.
I frequently go in on the 2nd-Friday-of-the-month night of worship at Christ for the Nations. If you’re in the Dallas area and you haven’t been to these, I highly recommend them. They’re almost always wonderful and the atmosphere of worship is compelling.
But a day or two ago, Klaus Kuehn, who used to be a worship leader at CFNI, put up a Facebook notice that he was going to do a night of worship at Ridgeview Church, here in Rockwall. Klaus is one of the most humble, gracious, prophetic, spirit-led worship leaders I know of. He is 100% about God and 0% about himself.
So it was an easy decision for me – I went to worship with Klaus. David Elam was playing guitar, Keith Banks on drums, Steve Morgan on Pedulla, uh, I mean bass. Lauren I’m-so-sorry-I-forgot-your-last-name was singing, and her husband, Klaus’ nephew, came up to sing at the end too. David led one song, Everlasting, at the end too – the last “official” song before some free-form worship during ministry time. Lauren led “The more I seek you” (Zach Neese) and did a beautiful job of it. The five of them made a great worship “team”.
If they had a set list, it wasn’t much of one. There were a few up-tempo tunes like “I give you glory”, several hymns, and a lot of sweet worship.
I have Klaus’ new CD but haven’t spent enought time with it yet to say too much specifically. It’s out with Integrity and should be available at all the usual places. What I can say so far is that it’s all worshipful. Great to put on during a ministry time or to add to your worship playlist.
