Ok first of all I know little about audio stuff, just you know plug speakers into speaker jacks and mic into mic jacks.... well my church wants to try and hook a laptop up to out sound system so we can play MP3s directly through the laptop and not worry about CDs and such, and also at the same time be able to record to the laptop (like sermons and stuff) well the amp is about 12 years old but I know they hooked a new karoake system up to the sound board so I'm not sure if the age of the amp will effect it. Please help i'm kinda lost here and how to do it and what I need in a laptop to do it. Also anyone have good suggestion on a decently priced wireless lavalier mic and reciever???

You should check for input plugin of your amplifier and sound card output plugin or phones plugin on your laptop. Then go to any electronic shop and ask them for cable with whom you will be able to interconnect your laptop and amplifier.

and recording to the laptop is the same, just look at the output on the amp and the input or mic on the laptop?

For the recording you won't be able to connect output directly from amp to your laptop mic input because it will burn your sound card. Because signal from the amp is much higher than from mic. But there might be a recording output from amp which you can connect to sound card input.
