Worship Podcast
This past Sunday I asked my worship team a question:
“How can we better connect with our congregation in 2016?”
After the usual sarcastic remarks of getting rid of the stage, passing out tambourines at the door, and inviting anyone on stage, the conversation became beautiful. We began to discuss what it would take for us to connect with people and for our people to connect with God.
Here are some of those insights:

“Once you’ve tasted a little bit of pioneering, you never want to settle.” – Stu G
It’s refreshing to talk with someone who has had decades of experience doing the same thing without a jaded heart. That’s why I love Stu G. Stu is one of the founding members of the band Delirious, an incredible guitarist, and one who has had a massive influence upon modern worship in so many ways.
In this chat we dive into some of Stu’s Delirious memories, his transition from the band to what he’s doing now, as well as his new project “Have You Heard” – music which predates Delirious. And for you guitar players out there, we geek out for a bit about Stu’s live setup and signal chain.
Enjoy!

So great to have two of my good friends, Brad & Rebekah on the podcast today. They are both great worship leaders and songwriters who travel to churches all over the world, leading worship and equipping worship teams.
In this conversation we talk a lot about what it takes to be a self employed artist – how to structure your week, stay on top of bookings, manage details, schedule creativity, and more. We also talk about their new Christmas album, Gift of Grace.
Enjoy!
It’s fascinating to watch my kids grow up – to be on the other side, watching them experience life for the first time.
Just the other day Tyler was talking to Siri on my iPhone. This is a common occurrence. Both of my kids consider Siri a friend and it’s evidenced by the long conversations. At this particular moment, Tyler asked Siri for “Paw Patrol,” his favorite show. In an instant, Siri replies, “Looking up all the results for vagina.”
In that moment I realized the journey that awaited me as a parent. And I also realized it was time for Tyler and Siri to hang out a bit less.
Kids are constantly learning and so, so vulnerable. It’s really insane.

Today we chat with a legend. That legend is Paul Baloche. Paul has been leading worship, writing songs, and serving the local church for over 30 years and is one of the very best.
What I love about Paul is his honesty, transparency, and his commitment to serving everyday worshipers. He’s not flashy or complicated with what he does, and it’s effective. Very effective.
This conversation covers the gamut of goodness. Enjoy!
