Dynamics are crucial to a good set. Dynamics inside of a song, dynamics in the set as a whole, dynamics in instrumentation and vocals. This week when planning the set I knew I wanted to break down one of the songs acoustically that we had been doing fully electrified with loops. It ended up being an acoustic version of “None But Jesus” at the end of the set and then a reprise of “My Soul Sings” acoustically as well.
For me both of those were the high point of the set and I thought it really got the congregation focused, me as well, on Jesus where it belongs. At this point so much energy and time is set on Easter service that it’s going to take a lot of prayer and focus not to look past the services before then. Lot to do and need to lean on Jesus to accomplish any of it.

“None but Jesus” is awesome done acoustically! Really I just like the song regardless of how its done
but seriously it’s refreshing to change things up sometimes and do a song differently than we normally do. Love We cry out too.
