Worship Podcast & Blog
There’s a tension we worship leaders face each and every week.
Sometimes it’s paralyzing. Stressful.
We want to worship God, but we also want to sound awesome.
We want to the church to sing, but we also want to do our favorite songs.
We want the glory of God, but we also want to progress in our creativity.
So often, its either one or the other.
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.

We’ve all been there.
Sunday is almost here and we’re not quite sure what to sing. What do we do? Throw it together.
When in doubt, just find some killer songs and sing them, right?
But what about being present? If you think about it, every service is unique. Never again will that exact group of people gather together at that exact place at that exact time.
It’s about presence – being present.

For you worship leaders, I am considering hosting a meetup in the evening after the conference. If you are interested, please email me or leave a comment for more details. Will be great fun!
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.
