Worship Podcast
Hearing of the life-changing power of the Gospel never gets old. How God can turn a life around is a glorious mystery and Stephen McWhirter’s testimony is no different.
Stephen is a wonderful singer/songwriter and worship leader with a story of grace. In this interview we talk music, songwriting, and local church ministry, but we also hear Stephen’s story of redemption from meth addict to worship leader.
Don’t miss this!
For the last two and a half years, I’ve had the privilege of visiting dozens of churches across the US. Mega churches, house churches, charismatic to methodist and everything in between.
Some of these I’ve led worship in, some I’ve consulted, and some I’ve attended. These churches look very different, every one possessing its own unique identity. However, we have more in common than you may think.
When it comes to corporate worship, we’re after the same thing. Here are some values I’ve noticed that most evangelical churches are looking for. Is yours?

What a joy to welcome Chris McClarney to the podcast. Chris is a gifted singer/songwriter and worship leader. We have a blast laughing, talking worship, songwriting, cooking, tiny hands, and more.
Enjoy!
Church planting is not for the faint of heart. I’m always inspired by the ones who head into a difficult area with the light of the Gospel and build from the ground up.
Luke Hellebronth is the Worship Pastor at Gass Street Church, where Tim Hughes is the Lead Pastor. They are taking worship to the streets and making disciples in a very post Christian area.
We talk church planting, creativity, excellence (or not?), songwriting, recruiting, and more.
Enjoy!
One of the worship leaders who’s had the most impact on me is Charlie Hall. I can think back to specific seasons of my life where Charlie’s music brought me through. Before I ever led worship or considered leading worship, Charlie’s early Passion records taught me so much about creativity, musicality, and how to lead people.
I’m honored to have Charlie on the show this week. We talk about Charlie’s role at Frontline Church, develop worship leaders, redemption stories, and more. So good!
