We can say we value people, but do our systems & processes prove that we value people?  We weren’t expecting the conversation to find its way here today, but when it did...we jumped all over it.  One of the thoughts Josh Miller from Saddleback Worship was so challenging that we decided to end our episode focusing on implementing it into our worship teams.  If you oversee a worship team what he shared is definitely a thought you want to spend time considering.    Mentioned in the Episode  Saddleback Worship’s New Release  ---  If you like what you hear, please leave us a review!

You have a unique skillset that aligns with a specific purpose that God’s placed on your life.    99% of the time gifting & calling are directly connected.    Sometimes the only way to figure out what that is, is by going after things that prove to not be right.    Whatever the journey looks like though, it’s so important to have people around us constantly pointing our attention to the things God has gifted us in.    Today we hear from Gable Price about his journey into discovering what he’s made to do.    We also share key ways to discover your calling.  Mentioned in the Episode  Gable’s Newest Release  ---  If you like what you hear, please leave us a review!

It’s been over a year since the murder of George Floyd.  And in the wake, when you look at all the things you said you’d implement and prioritize, did you follow through?  This isn’t something that only some are called to either.  All Kingdom people are called to actively & consistently defend the oppressed. So now that we’re over a year from when so many were first stirred to action, the question is have you followed through?  Today we talk with Ellie Holcomb about how she’s prioritized what the Lord’s laid on her heart & what it looks like to move from ideas to action.  Mentioned in the Episode  Ellie’s New Project  “Be the Bridge” by Latasha Morrison  ---  If you like what you hear, please leave us a review!

Writing a song is one thing. Writing a song that actually says something is completely different!  Great writers fight for language that truly portrays revelation in their writing.  That doesn’t mean that the song has to be complicated or wordy either.   It’s all about finding what best serves the song & stewarding what it’s intended to carry.  Which is way easier said than done!  So, we decided to talk with the team at Circuit Rider Music about how they approach bringing revelation to their songs.    Mentioned in the Episode  The Circuit Rider Music’s new project  ---  If you like what you hear, please leave us a review!

In worship culture, the concept of “excellence” carries a lot of emotions along with it.  For some, it was used to justify overworking or demanding perfection from people.  In other environments, it’s become an idol where basically people are expendable all for the sake of the church service and the ministry.  Although it’s a concept that’s easy to abuse, excellence is still something that we’re called to.  Not only is it something we are called to, but when done purely it’s a powerful expression of worship.  So what does it look like to healthily engage with excellence?  We sit down with our friend Andrew Holt from The Belonging Co. to talk about this very thing here on the show.    Mentioned in the Episode  The Belonging Co.’s New Project  ---  If you like what you hear, please leave us a review!

COVID-19 & everything that came with it is coming to a close. So what did you start doing during the pandemic that you want to continue & what are you leaving behind?    Yes this applies to us personally & to our families, but...    As a worship pastor, what do you want to continue & what do you want to leave behind in 2020?    It’s so easy to get caught up in the cycle of the ways we‘ve always done things, but are those ways still best?    Mosaic MSC is no stronger to these types of questions & today they share what they’re thinking about as they head into church services post-pandemic.  Mentioned in the Episode  Mosaic MSC’s New Album  ---  If you like what you hear, please leave us a review!

There are many misconceptions about how to engage in spontaneous worship.  It requires a team & leaders capable of executing what the moment requires.   So many think powerful spontaneous moments means coming up with a new song on the spot.   But powerful moments aren't always about coming up with something highly energetic & brand new.   It's about yielding to what the Lord wants to do – which often looks different than we expected.   In our conversation with Red Rocks Worship, we talk about how to develop a team capable of engaging in spontaneous worship & what it looks like to faithfully steward a moment.    Mentioned in the Episode  Red Rock’s New Projects  ---  If you like what you hear, please leave us a review!

It’s so easy to replace our time “with God” with “doing for God”.   Even our personal times of worship can sometimes shift from intimate encounter into preparing for a set, jamming, or writing.   Those things aren’t bad & they have their place! But in those moments, they are distracting us from our time with the Lord.  So as someone involved in worship what's the best way to approach personal times of encounter?   You don’t want to miss Phil Wickham talk about his journey through this very thing on this week’s episode.    Mentioned in the Episode  Phil’s Newest Release  Sacred Pathways Intro Sheet  ---  If you like what you hear, please leave us a review!

This week we’re talking about a few big topics!   In a crisis of faith or a period of deconstruction should you push through or step down from the stage?  How am I supposed to trust God amidst uncertainty when I have yet to see His faithfulness?   These are only a few of the real questions that every day a huge percentage of people wrestle with.  Although so painful in the moment, what comes out on the other side of engaging with it well is beautiful.  Our guest, Rachael Lampa, knows what it's like to be in the limelight and simultaneously process through these hard questions.    Mentioned in the Episode  The Faithful Project  ---  If you like what you hear, please leave us a review!

How has striving affected your life? Seriously, think about it!   It’s so easy to believe the lie that getting the better gear, a bigger team, the right connection, or whatever it might be THAT THING will solve all our problems.    Striving is the result of something within that believes what you’ll gain on the other side will bring you all you need.    BUT SO OFTEN THAT’S A LIE    What if we could step into the freedom that comes with living a life free of striving?    Achieving that is not something you stumble into. It’s something that our guest, Andrew Ripp says, requires a violently intentional pursuit.    But it’s a freedom that’s worth that violent pursuit    Mentioned in the Episode  Andrew Ripp’s New Release  Andrew’s Song “Jericho”  ---  If you like what you hear, please leave us a review!
