Featuring the song “I Need Love” from Chair and Microphone, Vol. 3. Gary joins Karla and Ben to chat a little about booking concerts (go to karlaadolphe.ca) and they chat about the glory of bad grammar in passionate songwriting…

Karla works on the chord shapes for the amazing song “I Need Love” where the lyric focuses on the idea that God is building his amazing city, his home, out of our very lives! Crazy! See Ben and Aaron as well.

We encourage all our close friends and comrades to try and take a trip into a 2nd or 3rd World country at least once every two years, regardless of the reason, in order to be affected by the bigger, and more difficult picture of our world. I am taking this time to encourage you, friends, will you consider a trip this year? Don’t get under the judgment of having to make every trip a perfect ministry trip with perfect goals and actions. God loves people, He made you to love them to, so let’s do it together.

Pray for us as Ben heads to a country under communist dictatorship for a couple weeks in July. The country is still very difficult to enter/exit and to help without bringing difficulties to nationals. We will be working to equip and encourage leaders to be family men–loving parents, not organizational managers; and to see worship and prayer released to a deeper level! Pray!

Karla, the featured artist on the newest Enter The Worship Circle album: Chair and Microphone, Vol. 3, talks about her musical influences. Ben Pasley makes useless comments. The song featured is “Safe Place.”

Here is the audio interview between Ben Pasley and Mark Weaver where they discuss the article “Basics of Fathering” from Churchthink.com. Find the PDF in our webstore! This is the second of two parts.

A quick review of the MixPack 2, PSP Audioware’s suite of sound shaping tools, that includes the MixSaturator. It is a tube/tape emulator that can impart some serious warmth to a track. Ben demonstrates the plug inside a Fourth Circle song.
