Today’s interview tells the story of new singer/songwriter/worship leader Lauren Daigle. Lauren’s music has been at the top of the Christian iTunes charts for months. It makes sense – she’s got an incredibly unique, soulful voice (think Adele meets Kim Walker) and songs that cut to the heart of what worship is all about.
Engaging, soulful, powerful songs.
Leading worship can be overwhelming sometimes, right?
Not only do you have to worship God with all your heart, you have to lead a band, play an instrument, sing, engage a room, please your leaders, and be theologically sound. There’s a lot to juggle.
Of course, worship isn’t about music, singing, stage presence, personality, but it doing it well does include all of these. My goal with this article is to break down 4 essential skills that every worship leader needs to focus on.

I love talking to dreamers. But there’s something even more powerful than a dreamer: a dreamer who does. These kinds of people are a gift because they help us confront our apathy, fear, excuses, timidity, and stir us to get on with making change and living boldly.
Daniel Bashta is one of those people. Daniel is an incredible songwriter, worship leader, and dreamer who we welcome back to the podcast for a second time. For you long time fans, Daniel was the first guest on the very first Beyond Sunday podcast a little over two years ago (for a listing of past episodes, click here).
Leading Worship is about connecting human hearts to something greater.
It’s about shining a spotlight on the glory of God and getting out of the way. It’s about drawing attention to something outside of yourself. But isn’t it true how often our worship sets do anything but that.

Today’s guest is no stranger to great songs – The Great I Am, Rescue, Amazed. But Jared Anderson and I talk about so much more than just the songs and the music.
Truth is, Jared never wanted to write worship songs. But God had other plans.
We talk about living for the Kingdom of God, making disciples, his story of adopting two kids from Haiti, being present, and some of his top songwriting tips. Yea, it goes in a lot of different directions. But typically the best conversations do.
Enjoy my conversation with Jared Anderson.
