Worship Podcast
The idea of flowing in the Spirit can be a turn-off to many.
We’ve seen enough crazies to know we don’t want to be “that guy.” The problem is that worship isn’t simply a performance of worship songs. It’s participation in the living, ever-present, life-changing presence of God.
Yea, that changes things.
Sometimes an album comes along that carries a special anointing – a sound, a voice, a message that awakens your heart to see more of God.
For me, one of those albums has been the new Jesus Culture Emerging Voices album. What a fantastic collection of songs. And it’s more than just great songs.
It is a worship experience.
I had the privilege of being introduced to Justin Jarvis and Mary Kat Ehrenzeller with the release of their stellar album, Harbour Live, a couple years ago. To see them on this new Jesus Culture record makes my heart proud. Derek Johnson and Nate Ward are also artists you don’t want to miss.
I had the privilege of asking them a very important question. At the end of this post, you’ll find out how you can win one of 5 free copies of this album.
It doesn’t matter how talented you are.
It doesn’t matter if you’re the best in the world. When it comes to having an effective ministry, you need more than natural skill.
No, I’m not here to advocate laziness.
Of course, you should work on your guitar scales.
Of course, you should develop the discipline of songwriting.
Of course, you should go to the next level as a worship leader.
Effective ministry is never less than hard work. But it’s also so much more.
Why is this?
Do you ever feel like you’re alone?
That your struggles are different than everyone else’s?
You hear worship leaders talk about their live recordings, large teams, and expansive click track setups while you struggle to get people to attend your church.
You’re wondering if you’ll have a drummer on Sunday, let alone how unified your team will be in worship.
Just because you lead worship at a small church doesn’t make you less anointed, less significant, less important to the body of Christ.
Matter of fact, we need you.
Do you wish you had more hours in the day?
Wouldn’t life be amazing if you could come home from your day job full of energy, spend quality time with your kids, listen to your wife, have a family dinner, and then work on your your songwriting craft into the evening?
Then, you lay your head down for a full 8 hours, awaking with a smile on your face and a jump in your step.
But it’s never that.
