About Me


Decisive Abandonment (The DA) means to abandon all that you are and choose to follow Christ. Decisive Abandonment is a worship band that was initially formed to provide worship music for the Children's (KidsForce) Ministry at Calvary Temple of Indianapolis in 2002. Even at it's humble beginning, The DA, was given opportunities to minister outside of the church walls, performing at kids/youth camps, conferences, and on the road with local recording artists.In 2006, Shannon Lancaster (worship leader),began leading worship for the College/Career (FLASHPOINT) Ministry which opened an opportunity for a merger of worship ministries. Currently The DA provides worship music for KidsForce and for the Flashpoint Ministry at Calvary Temple Assembly of God in Indianapolis, IN. Below are pics from our Sunday morning KidsForce Worship Services where Steve Jones is the Children's Pastor.


These pics below are from our Thursday Night Flashpoint Gatherings for young adults where Derek Britt serves as our Flashpoint Pastor.


So this is how it goes down. The music quality in this video is not the greatest, but you can see the passion that comes off the stage. We, the members of the DA, love to worship God. Summer Kids Camp 2007!
