Jeff Carnie and Spectrum were participants on the Gospel Fest 2010 program held at Delta College in Stockton on February 20th, in honor of "Black History Month".
Often times with events such as this, it becomes more about the artist, their musicianship and less about God. It can be difficult to keep ministry at the forefront. With all that was taking place to ensure the evening ran smoothly, and the artists' needs were taken care of; the members of Spectrum prayed that God would keep them focused on the reason they were there, to touch hearts and change lives. With that being said, the Holy Spirit was evident in the praise and worship of Jeff Carnie and Spectrum.
The First Church of the Nazarene in Roseville honored our group, Jeff Carnie and Spectrum with the opportunity of leading worship for their congregation on February 28th. When I first entered the sanctuary, the first thing that caught my attention was their mission statement. It professed their commitment to diversity. Now, if that wasn't God quietly whispering we were in the right place. Your first impression of Pastor Terry Schofield, is that of a gentle soft spoken man of God. At least that's how Jeff described him. Well, he is anything but that when preaching. I guess something comes over him (the Holy Spirit) and transforms him into this powerful, dynamic, out spoken servant of God. With that as a backdrop for the music, well let's just say it was a very, very, high day. All praise be to God! |
