Tim Hughes is no stranger to the worship community. For years he has provided the worshiping church with great songs like Here I Am to Worship, Happy Day, At Your Name, Consuming Fire, and many more.

It was an honor to welcome Tim back to the podcast. In this conversation we go much deeper than just songwriting and the creative process. We talk about Tim’s recent leap of faith to plant a church, following the call of God, as well as his new album Pocketful of Faith.

Plus, we’re giving away a few copies of the album.

How to Win an Album

    Been a blessing really listening to this podcasts. Getting members of the worship team to listen to it. And I strongly believe it would set a lot of things in proper perspective as it is already doing to me.

    These podcasts are greta for everyone on you team. I have always found Tim to be an honest artist and it was great to hear his take on church panting since I have been involved in a church plant myself for the past two years.

    Wonderful podcast David, Tim Hughes is such a humble guy and truly a blessing. I was at the Worship Central Conference he was hosting this June in Johannesburg South Africa really had an exceptional worship experience and the wisdom i got from the talk sessions was just something else, i can’t wait for the next one . But above all really enjoyed the times he would just stop during the worship set and he would encourage us to sing a new song. it was a bit nerve wrecking but people actually did create songs from their heart. #Amazing_Moment_It_Was

    I stumbled on to this podcast and it wrecked my world in a good way! I have found myself not only worshipping with music but with my job, being a friend, a husband, a daddy, neighbor… I will be apart of a church plant in Round Rock Tx and have applied for the position of worship leader. It is truly a step of faith and God has been giving me peace that whom ever will fill that position it will be the right fit. Thank you and this blessed my socks off!

    I have so enjoyed the last few podcast episodes… I am actually looking forward to yardwork every week because it gives me a chance to quiet my spirit and feed on what God is pouring out through you and your hosts on this podcast I have so enjoyed the last few podcast episodes… I am actually looking forward to yardwork every week because it gives me a chance to quiet my spirit and feed on what God is pouring out for you and your house on this podcast Also just want to thank him for the invaluable and truly spot on comments and insights in this podcast

    I will testify to the fact that he has definitely added fuel to the fire for me in what God has called me to do and I will be praying for his church plant at the old gas facility as a few of the fires of love for Jesus in Birmingham.

    Wow. Although I usually listen for the worship side of it, this particular interview really spoke to me in regard to the “unknown” and the “faith” side of it. God is calling my wife and I to leave what could potentially be a really great offer with our church to step out into the unknown…literally. We don’t know what it is. We just know that we’re supposed to say yes to God and that that means turning down another offer. It was really encouraging to hear Tim talk about the unknown that he is facing right now, especially since I’m going through the same thing! I texted my wife to listen to it, and I think she’s at home listening now while I’m typing this. LOVE the podcast, thanks for doing it, David!

    Nice podcast you have in here! Been a follower of your blog for years now. This particular podcast impressed in my heart that in times of the ‘unknown’ faith in God gives us the eyes to see. I know God is teaching me something right now. Thank you David! God bless you more.

    Worshipping in spirit and in truth, is there anything more powerful and winsome than that?

    We are always inspired by music that is written for the sole purpose of glorifying God and challenging lifestyles to be ever stepping out in faith for God’s purpose. @timhughes77 #Pocketfuloffaith does just this.
    Thank you for this wonderful podcast.
