The Finished Works
this is a forum for all to post songs of a "finished" nature or cover tunes for the enjoyment of all. Please post charts if you are able and willing if you think it's something that could be used in worship.
Joel Hinck replied to levite's discussion 'metronome use'"Thought I'd weigh in on the side of the mighty metronome. Rubato is great in solo playing and in professional groups that have years of experience listening to each other and locking in to the groove. Most praise teams are not made up of such…"

Andy Bartlomain left a comment for Joel Hinck"Thanks for the friendship Joel. :-) I hope life's going great in Baltimore. I was just there a couple of weeks ago in regards to a ministry opportunity in Owings Mills. It was my first time in that area, very nice."
Pete Brower commented on Joel Hinck's blog post 'Without Love'"Joel, thanks for taking the time to post this. It really spoke to me this week. I've felt things building and getting more complicated lately. So much concern about logistics, planning, managing personalities, technology, etc. I've started…"
Joel Hinck posted a blog postWithout Love
If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. -1 Corinthians 13:1 (NIV)I’ve been thinking about this verse as it relates to worship music, both as a music leader and a congregation member. What it boils down to for me, in a musical context, is this:Whatever I do, no matter how beautiful or excellent, if I do it without love I’m just making noise.Love for what? Who? The first and most important answer is God (surprise!).…See More

I read a C.S. Lewis essay recently that got me thinking about the nature of worship, and our times of praise in music. Titled “Dogma and the Universe,” most of the essay addresses the question: “How can any system of belief that claims to be absolute and unchanging stay relevant in the face of our ever expanding knowledge about the universe?” He argues that no amount of increase in knowledge about the world around us can ever make the fundamental truths of Christianity any less true. They are… Continue

We will never be able to understand everything about God- He is, by nature, beyond anything a human can comprehend. This song celebrates both God’s endless scope, and His gracious love for us.

A new spin on a hymn from the 1600s by Joachim Neander (translation by Catherine Winkworth, modified by Joel Hinck)

- We met a really cool couple who's planting a church there, but at the end of the day it's not going to be the right fit for my wife and I, and we're not the right fit for them. I do believe God is going to do great things through their church! I'm also believing God to lead my wife and I to the right place of ministry. If that happens to be in the Baltimore area I'll be sure to look you up.

Al Hilgendorf said… - Thanks Joel. I like your music - you seem to be mature beyond your years : ) For some tips on songwriting, I've written some stuff on my Blog page at my website www.everydaypraise.com about songwriting so, hopefully, you might find something helpful there. Keep up the good work!

- Hey Joel, I am also blessed/cursed with eclectic taste in musical styles. I was a composition major while in school, but switched to a BA in Music because it would take about a year less to achieve (I wanted to get OUT). Did you check out my Gregorian rock tune, "Sanctus"? It's the only tune I've posted so far. It combines two styles that I haven't heard attempted before.

Wayne Pau said… - Joel. I was touched and inspired by your blog on "Why Am I Doing This". That was just awesome. Maybe that time was like Moses' 40 years in the dessert. In my mind without a doubt, Moses was better leader at age 80 than age 40.
=) Rock on.
