I’ve got an incredible guest and he’s brought loads of incredible wisdom and energy with him.

He’s Sidney Mohede from Jakarta Praise Community Church in Indonesia and newly signed artist to Integrity Music.

Sidney is a worship pastor, very itinerant minister, songwriter, husband, father, and avid video gamer. Though I just met Sidney for the first time, I feel like this conversation was like catching up with an old friend. He’s one of the more encouraging, positive, energetic people I’ve ever talked to.

Don’t miss this conversation, which ebbs and flows through so many important topics for worship leaders.
