"新月城崇拜" 一群新命名的宝盈APP登录, staff and friends of 新奥尔良 浸信会神学院 (NOBTS) and Leavell College, 释放了他们的 首张专辑 特色 鸽奖获奖歌手梅雷迪思·安德鲁斯.
这张七首歌的专辑，是在 2024年遵守妇女大会 这部影片将于今天(6月7日)上映 现在有时间 在所有主要的音乐流媒体平台上.
“在接受我在这里的职位后. Dew asked if I would work on an album project as soon as I got 在这里,内特·杰尼根说, associate professor of music and worship for NOBTS and Leavell College. “A year and a half in, this is the culmination of that first attempt.”
杰尼根解释了这组宝盈APP登录, staff and friends of NOBTS has been leading worship in various settings at the school and around the country without any formal designation up to this point.
This collection of around 20 or so musicians will now be known as Crescent City Worship, named after the nickname of the city of 新奥尔良, and the live album will serve as the group’s first official release.
The group will represent and connect back to NOBTS and Leavell College anyw在这里 they perform, and will essentially serve as a music publication arm for the institution.
Jernigan said the group worked for several months to prepare songs that wouldn’t just work well for an album, but would specifically serve the women at the Abide Conference the best.
“That was our number one goal before recording an album, and I think even that’s pretty key for our students to see,杰尼根说.
“Our goal cannot be to record an album at all costs. So, what songs will meet these ladies w在这里 they are and help them to engage with a Holy God who desires communion with them in the midst of this conference?
“Then we started to think about how can we arrange these songs in unique ways that would feel fresh and could serve both the ladies at the conference and churches who get a chance to hear the music.
“We also are seeing a trend of having modern contemporary music having such a short shelf-life, that we want to think about specific songs that we can re-work, re-arrange and add our own personal 新奥尔良 touch on to extend the life of a song that we feel like can be an enduring song.”
Titled “Live at the 2024 Abide Conference,” the songs included on the album include:
Meredith Andrews had just released her song “The Lamb, 狮子, 国王,，就在大会召开前不久.
Jernigan said the conference was a “unique opportunity,” for members of Crescent City to perform with her and be encouraged by her.
Andrews will return to perform with Crescent City Worship at the 2025 Abide Conference next February.
Jernigan said this album’s release fulfills a specific vision for Crescent City Worship, but more broadly helps fulfill the institution’s mission to serve the Church.
“Of all the name options we could think of for the group, 新月城是我们城市的名字, and we were put 在这里 by the Southern Baptist Convention for a strategic purpose,杰尼根说. “We (NOBTS) literally exist to train students to serve our churches.
“So, ultimately our goal is to serve the Church, specifically Southern Baptist churches. One way that we can do that is certainly by training students to go physically to those locations, I think another way to serve the churches in our constituency is to capture music that we believe is worth singing in our churches and to package them in a way that is creative, accessible for most churches and provides ultimately some resource for them to continue to find new music to sing.”
Jernigan explained the group has plans to release music videos for the songs on the album in the future, as well as tutorial videos on how to play them in the style they were performed at the conference. Crescent City also plans to record new albums during this summer and at next year’s Abide Conference.
另外, NOBTS is also in the process of building a new music studio which will be used by the school’s music program and to record future projects for Crescent City.
虽然发行音乐一直是我的目标, Jernigan said the ultimate purpose of Crescent City Worship has always been about something much greater.
“Our future hope is just to continue to serve the Church really well,杰尼根说. 这真的是Dr. Dew’s conviction that we have to do whatever it takes to serve the Church. It felt like beginning to record and work through all the challenges of doing so is a worthy task to take on.
“My hope is that we will dedicate adequate time and resource to training our students how to write, record music and create resources that will ultimately serve the Church. 这是我们宝盈APP登录的训练场, it’s encouraging for churches and it’s providing resources for them.”
