1. Love - Did Face of Love from Sanctus Real
2. Joy - Tree63 Joy

3. Peace
4. Patience
5. Kindness
6. Faithfulness
7. Integrity
8. Gentleness
9. Self-control

So....what do you have for me based on weeks 1 and 2?

[Jay Tea]

I don't know either song...are you thinking congregational, or band solo? And do you have anything in particular in mind as far as "modern" (e.g., would "Peace" by Third Day fit)?

[trpullen]

Solo band for special music.

Yeah, that fits the style. I also found a song by grammatrain called Peace. It is kinda Nirvana-ish which is something we have not tackled yet....90's Seattle.

That would be so much better than Third Day.

Another one that comes to mind is Peace by Jennifer Knapp. But you would have to have a good female vocalist - but the guitar is pretty sweet.

The grammatrain song or Jennifer Knapp.

Faith To Be Strong by Andrew Peterson?

7. Integrity

Goodness I think is the actual fruit name.

8. Gentleness
9. Self-control

I'll have to think of others.

It is. We found Integrity in one of the translations we had and thought maybe it would be easier to preach on.

A few more ideas, with varying degrees of obviousness

3. Peace - Skillet's "Saturn" or "Safe With You"
4. Patience - Guns and Roses!
5. Kindness - Nichole Nordeman:"Wide Eyed", Burlap to Cashmere:"Good Man"
6. Faithfulness - Skillet:"More Faithful", Five o Clock People:"Lunar", Smalltown Poets:"Walk That Line", Newsboys:"Lost the Plot"
7. Integrity/Goodness - Jars of Clay:"Good Monsters"
8. Gentleness -
9. Self-control - Caedmon's Call:"Where I Began"

Funny...we were joking about the GnR song too.

Good suggestions. I will have to hit iTunes and give a listen. You are right in our wheelhouse though musically. We do Big Daddy Weave, Tree63, Jars, Sanctus Real....etc.

[trpullen]

Going with the U2 song 40 for Patience.

[Jay Tea]

Good choice...I was kinda thinking "patience with God" might the easiest route to find.

How are you distinguishing between "gentleness" and "kindness"? The two seem quite similar to me...

I am doing Great Kindness for ...well, kindness. I think we are doing a drama for the week of Gentleness.

"Patience" by Grammatrain is a stellar song. Try to get someone who can play the bassline!

For what it's worth, I've come to an understanding that "goodness" in Biblical terms refers to a sort of generosity that gives without expecting in return. I don't think it should be too hard to find songs that fit that definition.

So you are thinking along the lines of generosity...hmmmm interesting twist.

Did Tomlin's Kindness this week.

Have the next two weeks off from special as we have dramas scheduled. That leaves me with Gentleness and Self-control. Two things I personally have little of.
