Good Morning.

The next issue of the magazine goes to the printer today. This particular issue's theme is Understanding Worship At Its Core, with a lead article by noted worship teacher Tom Kraeuter. If you are not a subscriber, and you'd like to become one, please click here.

One more thing about the upcoming issue. Because I thought that it was time to do so, my editorial touches on Creator's core values. I've excerpted part of that editorial, including my delineation of those core values at my blog, which you can read by clicking here.
