There Is More: My Response To Seeing Hillsong In Concert

God is continuing to work on my heart, and heal me from things of my past.

There Is More: My Response To Seeing Hillsong In Concert
Taylor Markee

I was able to attend a Hillsong Worship concert over the weekend with my friends, and it was one of the greatest things I have ever experienced.

I have been to one other worship concert in my life, and it was not anything like this one.

Being able to see Hillsong in the flesh was amazing, and to be able to just spend the evening worshipping was much needed. Being able to surrender my fears to God is so freeing.

I have spent years hanging on to things that I should not be carrying anymore, and every time I go to a worship concert, I learn to let go a little more. God is continuing to work on my heart, and heal me from things of my past.

It has been 7 years now since my life changed forever, and I still see God working every day. It isn't something that is going to change overnight, but I know with a certain amount of trust, He can turn things around for me. I am so thankful for the way that I have seen Him move mountains in my life.

God continues to amaze me with His grace and I was able to witness so much of it at the concert I went to. There is something beautiful being in a room surrounded by thousands of believers all coming together for one reason. Jesus. It is not often when you can just worship, and not have to worry about the people around you.

My hope after this concert is that lives were changed, and people can proclaim the name of Jesus in their workplaces, homes, and all other places. Jesus is worthy of all praise, all the time. I will forever remember seeing Hillsong Worship, and how I felt throughout that whole concert.

It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. But also a time of stressing over the perfect gift.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…

If you go to or went to Kent State, then more than likely you have done or will do some of these things.

1. You’ve slipped and fallen on the ice at least once.

The winters at Kent are brutal, and while the heated sidewalks and some great snow boots are always a help, there’s no chance you won’t bust it on the ice at least once in your four plus years at school.
