As I celebrate 20 years in worship leadership, I've learned countless lessons that have shaped both my ministry and personal growth.

Key to it all has been a clear vision for building a thriving community of worshippers grounded in integrity, skill, and spiritual growth.

As worship leaders, we often focus on discipline—showing up, leading, and getting the job done. But what happens when our discipline lacks devotion? Recently, I felt God show me something powerful: discipline minus devotion equals drought. We can be consistent in our actions, but without heart, our efforts become dry. On the other hand, when we pair devotion with discipline, we experience delight, renewing our passion and connection with God. It's a simple yet transformative equation that has reminded me of the importance of staying both disciplined and devoted in our relationship with the Father.

God’s timing is like a click track. Just as a steady rhythm keeps musicians aligned, God's perfect timing guides our lives, even when we feel out of sync. Embracing tools like a click in music helps eliminate distractions, allowing us to create space for others to encounter God. In the same way, trusting God's timing frees us from anxiety, reminding us that He holds everything together. As we surrender control, we find the peace and confidence to lead with purpose, both in worship and in life.

Over the past month, I’ve started taking a weekly power walk at a local park, and it has been transformative.

Growing your team can be one of the most exciting and rewarding aspects of leadership, but it’s not without its challenges.
