Guest Worship Leader - Eddie Espinosa
Monday Night Worship
Monday, September 23, 7 PM
In The Sanctuary
Join us THIS Monday for a special night of worship featuring Eddie Espinosa at 7 pm in the sanctuary. Eddie is a seasoned worship leader, songwriter, and recording artist with a rich history in the Maranatha Praise Bands and the Vineyard movement.
You may know Eddie from his well-loved song, "Change My Heart, O God." Learn the story behind this timeless song in Eddie’s own words below.
"The year was 1982. I had been a Christian since 1969, but I saw a lot of things in my life that needed to be discarded. I had slowly become very complacent. I acknowledged my complacency, and I prayed to the Lord, 'The only way that I can follow you is for you to change my appetite, the things that draw me away. You must change my heart!'"
Eddie continued, "Shortly thereafter I was in my car on the way to my work, feeling a desire to draw near to God and with the wrestling still going on in my heart. Suddenly, a melody and some words began to flood through my mind. As I stopped at a stop sign I reached for something to write on. The first thing I found was a small piece of yellow paper, which, by the way, I still have, and began to write as rapidly as I could. It was like taking dictation. I wrote the words on the paper, and kept the melody in my mind."
"Change my heart, O God!
Make it ever true.
Change my heart, O God!
May I be like you.
You are the potter,
I am the clay.
