Ok...so I've searched and read up on the rules and there doesnt seem to be a problem with me starting this thread...but if any of the admin do then i understand...but i thought i would open this thread for a places for us 'fishies' (as my friend so loving puts me) to talk about things...

like for example if anybody is going to soul suivour or keswick this year??

PLEASE NOTE: i did not opent this thread for there to be a dispute over 'how wrong the christain faith is' etc

i'm going to firestarter and SUBM as usual but not soul survivor this year

This looked familiar, so I searched and found a similar thread here. Not objecting, just informing.

Can't see any reason why anyone should object to your thread !!

do you know whats even more embarrasing..the fact that it was me that started the other one as well!!! i obviously dont know how to search proparly

*waves*

hope this thread can be a nice place for discussion of mutually interesting things, and not turn into a fight (like the 'is anyone religious' one did a while back...)

never been to Soul Survivor, often wanted to, but it never seemed to work out... used to get their magazine though! Was gutted when they stopped it

hope you have a nice time if you're going

anyone ever been to/heard of Lee Abbey? I went on their summer camp a few times, it's a fantastic place!

*ahhh, the memories*

cool! I haven't seen them since I was at uni... ooo, ages ago! They do know how to do a good show though!

I'm probably showing my age again when I ask... any of you know Why? or Eden Burning ? (They both split up a good while back, but were great!) just realised that I've only got Eden Burning's stuff on cassette they saw me through my teens anyway! oooo, what about Fat and Frantic?

sorry, I think there is another thread on Christian bands, but if this is going to be a general chat thread, then it's probably ok here too


p.s. I'm not really that old! Same age as Jamie

wow i havent heard about yfriday since i saw them support noel richards... (yess ok shhhh!!!)

i work at a christian book shop so im a little too clued up on the books and cds at the moment...which i dnt always like...

Hello everyone, im a christian, but i think everyone knew that.

not going to any christian dos, but went to the Trumpet Call II, theres another one in october at the NEC, Birmingham, would encourage anyone to go to it.


I have heard of Delerious i think, or at least one christian rock band, they were more like heavy metal, anyone ever thought of sending a track to Jamie, just to inform his musical understanding........ just a thought.

JamiesAngel:

so which was it JA?! Delirious, or some other band?!
Delirious have gone through 'heavier' and 'softer' phases... I don't really know what they're like at the moment as I haven't bought their last couple of albums... I still think King of Fools rocks! I also have their early stuff, recorded as Cutting Edge. I expect you know more of their songs than you realise JA - a lot are sung in churches now (all over the world too! I've sung their songs in Spanish and French too a very odd experience!!)

FB, all i know is that my friend played it once, it sounded more like Iron maiden to me it was really heavy, got on my nerves a bit. maybe you could let me know what songs are sung in church, my church is pretty modern, but heavy metal is taking the biscuit..................




I've met Martyn Joseph and gone to several meetings with Graham Kendrick, but Trumpet call had Lawerence somebody and Godfry somebody, sorry, wasnt listening to the names.


Oh, can i add my thanks for this thread, i think a place for like minded people living this belief system is great, lets just agree to keep demoniational differences out of it, hey?

it's more their early stuff, but to name but a few:
Lord you have my heart, i could sing of your love forever (over the mountains and the seas), did you feel the mountains tremble, thank you for saving me, shout to the north, what a friend I've found...

ring any bells?

I've just looked them up on the internet and you can listen to clips here - click on the album, then the track listings come up. Most of the ones I've just listed come from the Cutting Edge albums.

FB, i searched about Eden Burning and found their site
Eden Burning

you can download their stuff off there

i listened and i like it

very cool

as for delirious, i think World Service is the best album to date, and Majesty is the most powerful song i've ever experienced live


Kutless are cool too... a bit more heavy tho

*has flashbacks to when I was 16*

Can I just ask, what's Soul Survivor, Firestarter and SUBM?

they are summer events
involve camping

usually based around a programme of worship events and seminars, including well known speakers and bands such as delirious, hillsong united etc

here's the soul survivor website

I met Martyn Joseph at Greenbelt one year, & Delerious?... I used to go to Billy Graham's meetings with my dad, & we saw Graham Kendrick once or twice too.

Funtin':

Yeah, I remember that one in particular... Graham was quite exciting as a speaker... I found Billy Graham a bit boring though.

i was a bit dissapointed colnsidering what i'd heard about him. he was a bit pastronising....

"I'm an evangelist... do u know what that is?"

lol

Absolutely!

mercy for those who we have lost,
peace for those who grieve,
healing for those who are hurt,
strenght for the emergency services,
wisdom for those in charge,
justice for the perpetrators,
peace within this world.

amen

Yer well, as an atheist, here's my opinion on things...

Is that not a slight contradiction? You don't believe God, but you believe humanity killed the son of God?
