Well, staff training worship was a great success tonight. It certainly seems like we have a great group of staffers, and it was a moving service. This is from the traditional singing of the “Mountain T.O.P.” song at the end of the evening, when we formed a big circle around Altamont Baptist Church.

When Brown Bannister wrote “The Mountain Top Song,” he didn’t have our ministry in mind. But, back in the 1980s (long before I had gotten involved), the ministry asked him for permission to use it as our official theme song. It’s perfect!

To quote the chorus:

I’d love to live on a mountain top
Fellowshipping with the Lord
I’d love to stand on a mountain top
‘Cause I’d love to feel my spirit soar
But I’ve got to come down from that mountain top
To the people in the valley below
Or they’ll never know that they can go
To the mountain of the Lord
