Harvest Music
Worship. Music. Tech
Harvest Music is a collection of musicians, vocalists, audio technicians, and lyric operators who serve together as the worship ministry of Harvest Fellowship. We have people from many different backgrounds, levels of experience, music styles, etc. However, we are all unified in our common goal of pointing people to Jesus through the exercise of our gifts.
Our Values
Here at Harvest Music, we have three primary goals: to grow in our relationships with Christ through community-centered discipleship, to develop our God-given talents through serving alongside other believers, and to lead the congregation in theologically-rich, Biblically-based anthems of praise. We believe that, while music is one expression of it, worship encompasses so much more than just music. Rather, we believe that Biblical worship is simply the offering of our lives to God in response to his indescribable grace to us. True worship isn’t a performance; it’s simply a natural outworking of the Spirit at work in our lives. Our goal is that, through the outworking of Christ-centered community and the exercise of our gifts, we could bring honor and glory to the One who has given us a reason to sing.
“I appeal to you therefore, brothers and sisters, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship. Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your minds, so that you may discern what is the will of God—what is good and acceptable and perfect.”
Romans 12:1-2 (NRSV)
Our Music
When it comes to the expression of our worship through music, we believe that it should be centered around retelling the faithfulness of God and declaring our dependence on Him. We want each song we sing to be grounded in the truth of God’s Word and to be a reminder to ourselves and to the congregation of Who God is and of what He has done. While we pursue excellence in our craft, our deepest desire is that the exercise of our gifts would never become a performance, but always remain an expression of genuine worship.
Community Nights
Our team meets on Thursday nights each week at the church from 6:30-9:00 pm to fellowship together, spend time in the Word, and rehearse for the weekend. As part of our goal of community-centered discipleship, we study verse-by-verse through Scripture and spend time in prayer for each other and the upcoming services. We want this to be a time where volunteers can come, not only to prepare to serve, but also to be encouraged in their walk with Christ.
How to Get Involved
If you’re interested in getting involved with Harvest Music, we invite you to come out on a Thursday night. There’s no registration or anything required; you can just show up. We would love to have a chance to get to know you and to see how you might best fit as a part of the team.
If you’re not able to make it on a Thursday or would simply just like to know more, you can contact us.
Tech & Video
The Tech & Video Team exists to complement and support Harvest Music by providing excellent sound, video archiving, and live streaming. Our video ministry and podcast have been viewed over a million times, serving as a tremendous resource not only for our church, but for the body of Christ around the world. If you’re interested in being part of this ministry, please contact us today. We have opportunities available and are currently praying for additional help in this area.
