DESPERATION BAND@ FUSION 2011

Just came back from a really awesome time just worshipping & praising God so freely with the Desperation band leading us all in this time of worship! And one thing which im so excited this year Fusion is, this Band has something much deeper about them, just listening to their songs, their sharing, one can tell that they are people who truly live their life for Christ by just seeing how they lead everyone into worship!

The below message is taken from Jon Egan the worship leader of the band on how the band was form. Amazing stuff!

"The band has always been more of a ministry than a band. Jon and the guys believe that true change comes when people lay aside their agenda’s to encounter the true and living God. They are passionate about the presence of God and they don’t hide it. They are well aware that music will never impact souls…only the power of God. They don’t perform or entertain. They want to join with real people to worship a real God. The Desperation Band exists to advance His Kingdom and to pray as Jesus told us… “your kingdom come, your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.”
“The Desperation Band has always been and always will be about the presence of God. We exist to bring Him glory and reveal His truth to a broken world. If we know who His is, we know who we are. If we know who we are, we can live as God meant us to live. Let our worship meet his heart. Let His heart speak his purposes. Let us freely give our lives away to see his purposes known. It’s not a youth movement. It’s not a church movement. It’s a people movement. All are welcome!” - Jon Egan, Desperation Band
