Today, I’m doing something for the first time. I’ve decided to run an exciting special for Black Friday.
I’m offering my ebook on songwriting for $4.99 today.
If you’ve ever wanted to write worship songs (or need some fresh inspiration) this is the book for you.
If a complete stranger approached you and invited you on a road trip, would you follow?
A little weird, right? If you don’t trust someone, you don’t go on a journey with them.
It’s the same with worship leading. If you’re not building trust with the people you lead, they’re not going to follow you. A massive part of building that trust is learning to communicate well.
We all may not have climbed Mount Everest.
We all may not have run a triathlon.
We all might not have tasted octopus, done jury duty, or bun-jee jumped over the Grand Canyon.
But there is a story we can all tell. And that’s the story of an embarrassing moment.
Anyone who does anything on a stage will have embarrassing moments to share. Let’s be honest – sometimes words come out the wrong way.
In today’s post, I’m going to share a couple real-life embarrassing moments I’ve had as a worship leader (you’re also going to swallow your pride and share your embarrassing moment(s) in the comments, right?)
A couple of years ago, I thought I turned the bathroom faucet off.
I was in a hurry, as usual, so I quickly turned the knob and went on my way. Little did I know that the sink was plugged and there was a slight drip.
Drip…drip…drip.
I went back to watch the movie with Emily in our tiny, yet cozy apartment. Beautiful wife, warm fire, popcorn, engaging movie. The good life. But the Hallmark mood only lasted for a couple more hours.
Drip…drip…drip.
After the movie, I went to the bathroom again to find the sink overflowing and the water spilled out over on the floor, out into the hallway. There are better ways to end a night like this.
Ever been in a season of life where you’ve felt forgotten?
What you don’t realize is that God is always moving, speaking, and fighting for you. Where you are now is preparation for what is coming next.
I talk about this and more with worship leader BJ Putnam today. BJ is a worship pastor at Church of the Nations in Phoenix and a recording artist with eOne worship.
This guy is writing some really fresh music and is a powerful worship leader. Check it out!
