Posted on June 12, 2017 by Steven Reed

We live in a world of augmented reality where everything is made to look better than it really is. Common food is pictured to look mouthwatering, every travel destination seems to be a dream come true, and supermodels are photoshopped to perfection.

Lost In Translation: The 8 Languages of Music

Posted on June 6, 2017June 1, 2017 by Steven Reed

I don’t speak Korean. I also don’t speak most of the 7,000 different languages spoken on our planet. In order to have a pleasant visit to Korea or communicate with those who speak Korean I need to either learn their language, have them learn mine, or acquire the services of a translator. Otherwise I will[…]

The Vanishing Role of Worship Leader: Are You Next?

Posted on June 1, 2017June 1, 2017 by Steven Reed

We met on a warm day in Baltimore. I thanked him for giving some of his time to a traveling worship minister like myself as I slipped into the smooth benches of a booth at a local chain restaurant to begin the usual ‘get to know you pastoral chit chat’. Questions like, ‘How did you[…]

The Pink iPod

Posted on March 30, 2017March 30, 2017 by Steven Reed

Once, as an anniversary gift, I gave my wife a pink iPod Nano. She unwrapped it, loaded it with music, and began to enjoy its benefits.

Posted on January 26, 2017December 8, 2017 by Steven Reed

For today’s article I thought it would be fun to look at the journey of a song. How it’s birthed, developed and is finished. We will use a song I wrote called, “I’m In love” that is currently on the radio in a few places. This song began somewhere around 6 – 7 years ago.[…]

1 song 3 languages: How to translate your songs into other languages

Posted on October 20, 2016October 20, 2016 by Steven Reed

We live in an English speaking world, or at least it seems that way to us, here in the US of A. It’s hard to believe, if not completely shocking, that English is not the predominant language in the world. It’s actually 3rd behind Chinese and Spanish. This statistic is interesting to me in a[…]
