Youth rally I've been involved in youth ministry for something like 18 years now, and I've never "preached" a youth rally before. But I will tonight. I'm looking forward to it. I'll also be substituting on bass guitar with a band I've never played with before. Preaching I can handle. Playing bass with a group of unfamiliar musicians will be a challenge. If I mess up, I can always fall back on the old "I'm a punk rocker" excuse. "I'm a punk rocker," roughly translated, means, "I suck, and if a song has three chords, that's probably one chord too many so let's strip it down."
