So honored to have one of my favorite voices on the podcast today – Christy Nockels. I can remember back to when I was first feeling “the call” to lead worship. That soundtrack was a lot of the early Passion records, where Christy’s unmistakeable voice was featured.
Here on the podcast we discuss how her and her husband Nathan Nockels met, their musical journey from Watermark to Passion, and the unique dynamic of women leading worship.
We’ve all been there.
The last thing we want to do is sing How Great is Our God or Here I Am to Worship…again. They feel old, tired, and worn out.
Songs go through cycles. It’s possible to do them to often as well as not enough. Striking that balance is tricky, to say the least.
But just because a song is old doesn’t mean it’s irrelevant. Great worship songs stand the test of time because they take a timeless message and wrap it in a fresh sound.

Today’s interview tells the story of new singer/songwriter/worship leader Lauren Daigle. Lauren’s music has been at the top of the Christian iTunes charts for months. It makes sense – she’s got an incredibly unique, soulful voice (think Adele meets Kim Walker) and songs that cut to the heart of what worship is all about.
Engaging, soulful, powerful songs.
Leading worship can be overwhelming sometimes, right?
Not only do you have to worship God with all your heart, you have to lead a band, play an instrument, sing, engage a room, please your leaders, and be theologically sound. There’s a lot to juggle.
Of course, worship isn’t about music, singing, stage presence, personality, but it doing it well does include all of these. My goal with this article is to break down 4 essential skills that every worship leader needs to focus on.

I love talking to dreamers. But there’s something even more powerful than a dreamer: a dreamer who does. These kinds of people are a gift because they help us confront our apathy, fear, excuses, timidity, and stir us to get on with making change and living boldly.
Daniel Bashta is one of those people. Daniel is an incredible songwriter, worship leader, and dreamer who we welcome back to the podcast for a second time. For you long time fans, Daniel was the first guest on the very first Beyond Sunday podcast a little over two years ago (for a listing of past episodes, click here).
