Worship Ministry CatalystWorship Ministry Catalyst Podcast 227: Spiritual Preparation For Leading Worship, Taize, Promises & The BlessingAs worship leaders we tend to spend the vast amount of our time on musical preparation and leave the spiritual preparation for leading worship until the last minute.

Today, David & Joe talk about some of the practical things we need to be doing in our personal walk with God to be ready to lead our congregations every Sunday. We also talk about some new worship songs like "Promises" by Maverick City, "The Blessing" by Kari Jobe and "Battle Belongs"...2021-05-2441 min
