Great news! Our first book, The Tuned In Musician is coming! Kickstart publishing by pre-purchasing your copy now ans support music education for young people.

Site Closing! Please Visit The Tuned In Academy Online

Dear friends,

This website is officially closing down on June 1. Please visit our new online home at The Tuned In Academy online. For those of you who don’t know yet, we are very excited about this new mission: a music academy in the Northwest (Lacey/Olympia, WA area) that will teach conservatory quality music education to young people, including day time offerings for home-school students at an affordable price. Beyond that, we will also seek to scholarship as many students as possible every semester through the support of local sponsors, families, and organizations—as well as through the proceeds from resources purchased by Tuned In Press (launching w/our first book very soon… more to follow). Please do visit the site and check back occasionally, as it will be changing often. As soon as The Tuned In Musician is ready for pre-purchase, which should be very soon, we will send out notes on Facebook, Twitter, and email.

In addition to the website transfer, all of our @vesselmusic.net emails will also expire. Please use our @tunedinacadmy.org addresses in the future. If you are interested in supporting the academy, please visit this page.

Thanks so much!

Beginning Band Summer Fun is Just One Week Away!

Hey Everyone!

I just wanted to remind you that Beginning Band Summer fun is just one week away! If you have yet to sign up and get registered, now is the time! Jenna will be making phone calls and emails this week to all who have shown interest. We still have a little room, but space is filling up fast and we’d hate to miss a child who really is interested.

Thanks! So looking  forward to making music with your children!

Heart, Head, and Hands

I was convicted recently and deeply by a book I taught through in one of the classes I teach, Head, Heart, and Hands by D. Hollinger. If you have not read it, I would absolutely recommend it. The premise is simple, yet profound and biblical. If we love God with all of our heart, soul, and mind we will love Him with a complete faith of the heart, head, and hands. I penned this little hymn in reflection on this truth and wanted to share it with my friends.

 

Heart, Head, and Hands

 

Affect my heart, infect my head, employ my hands

Move me Lord, in prayer and worship, as I muse on Your Majesty

Send me, employ me, consume me with Your mission- of saving Your people by the Lamb

By Your power and grace Lord, a faith of the heart, head, and hands

 

Infect my head, with perfect truth, to hunger and thirst for You

With what is pure, with what is true, on this may I be consumed

Teach me, intrigue me, convicting me by Your Spirit- make me understand

By your power and grace Lord, a faith of the heart, head, and hands

 

Affect my heart, aflame for You, with an unyielding love and passion

Infect my head with scripture and doctrine, on the foundation of Your Truth

Move me, enlist me, employ me in preaching, teaching, and meeting others needs

By Your power and grace Lord, a faith of the heart, head, and hands

Preacher!

The purpose of preaching is to point to The Lamb. If your primary point is anything else.. repent and turn to The Lamb! Or stop preaching.

Preacher!

Preacher: do not be fearful or shy in preaching this Lord’s Day, do not be unprepared, but preach the Gospel that you have been given by the grace of God. Resolve with Paul to renounce disgraceful, underhanded ways. Refuse to practice cunning or to tamper with God’s word, but preach the Gospel. “If our gospel is veiled, it is veiled only to those who are perishing.”(2 Cor 4:2-3)
