I can’t tell you how excited I was to sit down with one of my songwriting and worship leading heroes, Martin Smith.

Not only has Martin’s music inspired me as a young worship leader, but he really inspired an entire generation through the music of Delirious.

There was a freedom, a fire, and an innocence about the music that called us to a deeper level.

With the Delirious chapter coming to an end, Martin has now released a solo project of music (with more to come later this year).

At the end of this post, I’ll let you know you can win a FREE copy.

Worship leading isn’t just a role for the musically talented.

It’s not a gig for the artsy people in your church.

It’s about pastoring, teaching, and equipping. And in order to do that with effectiveness, you need to know Scripture.

For this episode of the Beyond Sunday podcast I was privileged to sit down with Aaron Keyes. Aaron is a powerful worship leader, teacher, and songwriter.

I can’t say enough about our conversation. So real, powerful and refreshing.

We chatted about everything from discipling worship leaders to the priority of Scripture to songwriting tools/resources to being inspired.

Take a listen and leave a comment, letting me us know what you took away from the interview!

But does your team know why they do what they do? Do you know why you do what you?

That’s the question we tackle in this third episode of the Beyond Sunday Worship Leader podcast.
