I hear a lot of people talk about relevance. But I would prefer to be timeless. Jesus is timeless. The cross is timeless. The Gospel is timeless. You don’t have to worry about being relevant when you hold the cross up.” – Kristian Stanfill

I’m so excited to share this chat with Kristian Stanfill – Kristian is a worship leader at Passion City Church and leads the Passion Band alongside Melodie Malone & Brett Youngker. I’ve been such a fan of Passion over the years. I remember the early CDs – Better is One Day, The Road to One Day – wearing those out like it was my job.

Passion music has helped me live for the glory of God. And that’s what Kristian and I discuss. We talk highlights of Passion 2017 – the songs, the students, the movement. Seriously – this will get you fired up.

Sometimes I feel the pressure to prove myself.

It’s like I need to be impressive or to stand out in some way in order to be a success. Worship Pastor, do you ever feel this? Like you’re just run of the mill? You’re not talented enough, popular enough, or trendy enough?

Well let me tell you something. You don’t need to write songs, be insanely talented, or stand in front of large crowds to be a world class worship pastor. You don’t.

Because success is defined in a different way.
