#19: Creating A Culture Of Collaboration: An Interview With Vertical Church Band [Podcast]

Local church ministry is all about working with and through others.

Whether you’re on staff at a large church with multiple worship staff or you’re the lone volunteer worship leader at a smaller church, collaboration is the name of the game.

I had the honor of chatting with a few guys from Vertical Church Band. Vertical Church Band is a worship ministry from Harvest Bible Chapel in Chicago.

These guys may write songs and make records (get their new album The Rock Won’t Move on iTunes), but they are local church worship leaders who are “all in” at their church.
