It’s that time again. I’ve been doing a series of posts called “Meet the Band” where I have been introducing you to the Access band members individually. Today you’re in for a treat. Lance Herring is a great friend. A mutual friend and worship leader introduced me to Lance three years. I count that day as a huge blessing. This guy is an awesome guitar player and he has a passion for God and for leading people in worship. I’m proud to call him my friend. Meet Lance Herring:

Isabella is still a good seven months away from celebrating her first birthday but these two pictures were taken exactly one year apart. They grow up so fast!

Today was our first day at our new location and it was absolutely fantastic! It really couldn’t have been better. Loved the energy from the combined service, the sound was fantastic, the band played amazing, and the Jason knocked it out of the park. Great day! Here are the songs we played and a few iPhone pics of the new room. They were both taken before service. I’ll get some better ones up at some point.

Oh – Funny side note. The YMCA where we’ve been having services for the last two years had NO POWER at all this morning. Good thing we moved today!

I Am Free – Desperation Band
You Are My Passion – Jesus Culture
Revelation Song – Kari Jobe
Furious – Jeremy Riddle
The Anthem – Planet Shakers

Almost three years ago my grandmother gave Kristin and I a car. We still have it and I drive it everyday. About a year and a half ago I was opening the driver’s side door and a huge piece of the handle broke off in my hand. It stayed like that for quite a while and at the time it was our primary car. Luckily my friend and drummer, Chris, fixed it.

Fast forward to yesterday. Chris was at lunch with us and we somehow got on the topic of him having to fix that door handle. So we drive home from Steak n’ Shake and I go to get Bella out of the back seat. The back door handle breaks off in my hand. Looks like Chris has another job to do.

Last week I started a series of posts called “Meet the Band”. I wanted to introduce you to the guys (and girl) who play in the band at Access. This week you get to meet our keys player, Eric Stogner. You’re going to want to watch this video. I asked, “What is a little known fact about you?” I’m so glad I did.
