Have you heard the terms “the sound of revival” or a church trying to “find their own sound?” These phrases can be exciting, but they can also be confusing! Every church and community has their own unique sound that the Lord wants them to capture and release. But many don't recognize this is the case and therefore don't explore the authentic sound of their own community. The ones that go on a quest to find this, impact communities in a transformational way, and even impact nations.   In this episode, I talk about the significance and beauty of tuning into the song of the Lord in the sound of the people. This looks different in every community. Let's learn to love singing global worship songs, but not at the expense of the unique sound that is yearning to rise up in our gatherings!   By understanding and harnessing the power of the local, unique sound, we can create meaningful and impactful worship that carries the influence and power of Heaven.   Special thanks to Dan McCollam, our Sounds of the Nations Founder who has instilled this deep, life changing truth in us. Seeing this activated in nations is a joy!   Here's What We Discussed:   [00:01] The Lord's Unique Song for Our Communities & The Importance of the Global and Local Sound [06:07] How to Discover Your Community Sound & 4 Different Types of Songs [13:10] Songs of Petition: Asking the Lord for Personal or Communal Desires [17:00] Songs of Declaration: Proclaiming Truths About God [20:33] Songs of Invocation: Encouragement to engage in actions of praise [23:19] Songs of Adoration: Worshiping and Adoring God for Who He is [25:59] Closing Up!  Connect with Roma!

“Which is more important, Theology or Encounter?” is a question I often get asked.     In this episode, we answer exactly that! Does encountering and experiencing God supersede the theology of scripture? We can often see churches swing on either side of the pendulum, but what if I told you that theology and encounter are meant to work together to experience the fullness of God and all He has for His people? In this episode, we discuss why, without truth, our experiences won't have a foundation to stand firm upon and how experiences are the fruit of our relationship with God.   Here's What We Discussed:   [00:01] Should I Choose Between Theology vs.Encounter? It's Meant to Be a Marriage!    [02:32] The Importance of Theology: Worshiping in Spirit and Truth  [11:20] Why Spiritual Experience is Just as Important as Theology – Experience Shows Proof of a Relationship [17:09] Experiencing the Full Gift of Encounter and Theology Connect with Roma!

From rock N' roll to spearheading a global revival movement, the journey of my dear friend Daniel Hagen stands as a testament to the transformative power of Jesus. In our conversation, Dan and I talk about the journey of staying grounded and intimate with Jesus while leading a huge worship platform, the song that the world so desperately needs to hear, and how we worshipers are being called to the battleground. All this and so much more!   In 2003, Daniel Hagen radically surrendered his life to Jesus Christ in a powerful encounter that would shake up his world of sex, drugs, and rock ‘n' roll. His heart was overrun with the love of God, and his songs began to overflow with his affection for the Father.   Daniel's rock band, The Hollows, was on the verge of scoring a six-figure record deal. His love for Jesus compelled him to walk away from the life of fame and fortune and pursue knowing the Father more and making Him known to the nations.   As he fell more in love with Jesus, He began to lead teams of everyday believers out onto the streets, where they would preach the gospel and demonstrate God's love through signs & wonders.    Daniel is the Associate Director of Awakening Australia with Ben Fitzgerald, and is the leader of Awakening Music. Awakening is now a global movement, and their events are joined by thousands from all over the world with one purpose – the nations for Jesus!    Daniel and Chelsea are happily married with four children and are the senior ministers of Fire Church ministries. Today, Daniel and Chelsea Hagen plant and oversee Fire Churches in Queensland and Victoria.    Here's What We Discussed:   [00:01] Rock and Roll to Revival: Daniel Hagen's Journey from The Hollow to Awakening Music [03:56] How Awakening Music Stays Grounded As a Global Worship Movement [07:30] The Devil Tried to Silence Worship During Covid  [15:13] Passing the Baton to Vincent Noah Lang – Raising Up the Next Gen of Worshipers  [21:47] Character before Talent – How Fire Church Discerns Choosing Their Worship Teams [24:35] Revival in Nürnberg, Why Prayer is the Engine Room of Revival, and Serving God in the Mountains and Valleys  [34:03] Dealing with Burnout in Worship Teams: What Causes It and What to Do Instead  [36:40] What Sound Does the World Need to Hear?    WATCH: Awakening Europe Conference Nürnberg → https://youtu.be/lhhWy11qxpE?si=JD_6qLY3tEpT2oVr Book Mentioned: No Compromise: The Life Story of Keith Green   Connect With Daniel  Visit his website —> https://www.danielhagenministries.com/daniel-hagen Connect on Instagram, Facebook, YouTube   Connect with Roma!

Can you genuinely connect with the Holy Spirit despite time limitations?   In today's episode, I delve into this topic, drawing from a session I led for our worship team at our East Location of NEUMA Church . With our ongoing revival, our worship can spontaneously overflow. This leads to logistical challenges. We don't want to put pressure on our teams, especially with back-to-back services, Kids' Church, scheduling, and other programs - so how do we be sensitive to both them AND move with Holy Spirit?   Tune in as I share some practical tips on moving with the Holy Spirit during our services. I talk about the importance of knowing Him, meditating on scripture, and letting go of frustrations. I also address the role of the worship team and the power of praise in creating an atmosphere of intimacy with the Father.

In the words of Steve Tebb, “The moment you get saved, you are born into a war zone.” And worship leaders are at the forefront of the battleground, leading generations in advancing The Kingdom. In this episode, we delved into the heart of worship leading and how its essence lies not on the platform but in the secret, intimate moments with God. We tackle how to overcome songwriter's block and why worship teams hesitate to write music. All this and more!  Steve Tebb has been leading worship for over 15 years and travels full-time as an Itinerant Worship Leader with a heart to bless churches, ministries, and events around the UK. He also travels internationally, leading worship, as well as speaking, equipping, and training teams. He is currently in the process of recording and is on the cusp of releasing his new album, Stand In Awe. Steve is passionate about seeing the true worshipers of God being awakened in the global body through corporate worship with fresh fire and love for Jesus. His desire is that it would lead to lives healed, set free, delivered, transformed, and renewed by the glory of God in order to carry out the gospel and Kingdom on earth. His greatest joy is to see the Great Commandment fulfilled through the prizing of intimacy and the pursuit of God's presence, becoming a daily reality for the Church.   Here's What We Discussed:   [00:01] From Baptist Roots to Divine Touch, Steve Tebb Shares How He Began Worship Leading [11:02] Dealing with Doubts – Worshipers at the Forefront of the Battleground  [18:09] Steve and Roma Share the Testimonies of Other Worshipers that Inspired Them to Persist in Faith and How it Impacted Them   [27:23] Solving Songwriter's Block – Spiritual Dryness, Being Unable to Take Criticism, and Why Relationships are the New Sound   [39:43] Ridding the Fear of Man by Diving Deep into the Secret Place of the Father   Connect with Steve Tebb  Visit his website: https://stevetebb.com Connect with him on Facebook and Instagram Listen to his latest single As the Deer    Listen to Steve Tebb's music on Spotify and Apple Music Connect with Roma!

Although she has achieved numerous gold albums and her songs are sung in many nations of the world, Darlene's success simply stands as a testimony to her life's passion for serving God and people with all her heart.

In a world dominated by flashy productions and market-driven trends, there is a global movement of God calling for genuine worshipers who will rise above the superficial and embrace the true essence of worship.   Worship is more than a genre – It's meant to be an expression that flows from the depths of the secret place, untouched by the commercial trappings of the industry.    My guest today has been hugely influential in my ministry as a worshipper and songwriter, and I can't wait for you to listen to the wisdom he shares in my latest podcast episode. Dan McCollam is known for his roles in co-founding Bethel School of the Prophets and founding Prophetic Company. He is also the visionary behind "Sounds of the Nations," a missional organization that has trained thousands worldwide to discover and release their unique and authentic sounds in worship.  In this episode, we delve into the significance of original songs for local churches and cities. While singing global worship songs is powerful, it is equally important to honour the unique revelation of Jesus within your local context.    Here's What We Discussed:   [02:37] From rock bands to prophetic worship: The birth of Sounds of the Nations [09:08] God is looking for those who worship in spirit and truth [13:23] What is the New Sound? The importance of the original song of a local church over a city  [20:11] The danger of worship being one sound – Why your unique sound matters  [24:26] Practical steps for implementing authentic worship  [31:03] Advice for worshipers who aren't sure if they have a unique sound    Support the Show:  If God is leading your heart to donate or support the show in any way please visit https://www.buymeacoffee.com/romawaterman for more information.

To experience the sound of revival in worship is an incredible experience and I want to share some jewels from someone who has experienced this recently. It was a real treat for me to interview Pastor Joel Field. Joel is the global worship and creative pastor at my church, Neuma Church here in Melbourne, which has been experiencing a really precious move of God over the last year. 

I loved this conversation because it's close to home and we are living it in real time!

 Pastor Joel is an incredibly anointed and gifted songwriter and worship leader. He is a devoted husband to his wife, Bek, and a proud father to Arielle and Judah.  This is a unique conversation as Pastor Joel has witnessed the transition between the old and new wineskin, where we are currently experiencing a powerful revival and that is overflowing in our times of worship. 

In our conversation, we talk about how cultivating hunger, embracing the presence of God, and prioritizing personal time with Jesus and family have ushered in revival. 

 I thought you would love to hear his perspective on how it all started...and how it is going...and what we left behind...

 The journey of experiencing God's reviving power through worship is not just for musicians...there is a call for every believer to worship Him in spirit and in truth and I believe you will find this conversation empowering, inspiring and insightful.   Here's What We Discussed: [01:49] God's transformative power and revival in Neuma Church  [07:47] How cultivating hunger and embracing the presence helped bring revival [18:54] Pastor Joel's Non-Negotiables in Revival – Time with Jesus and family [24:18] Advice on balancing structure and freedom with worship setlists  [34:25] Cultivating Personal Time With Jesus – The first step for worship teams yearning for more   Connect with Pastor Joel Field  Connect on Instagram Connect with Neuma Church on Instagram, Facebook, Youtube, and listen to Neuma Worship on Spotify Visit their website: https://neuma.church   Connect with Roma!

In this new podcast episode, I share my sensings of what the Lord is highlighting for our times of worship right now.   Is a worship team merely a place where people can use their talents and feel loved? ….Or do we need to revisit the conversation?   Yes, discipleship is important and primary, but I believe how we do that while developing a home for holiness on our platforms will be of primary importance in developing a revival culture that carries purity in the new season of what the Lord is doing right now.   In this episode I cover: What does revival worship sound like? How do we contend and cultivate the sound of Heaven for the seasons we find ourselves in? What is the ‘character' of your house and why is it important? I pray it will inspire a greater passion within you to press in for more of Him in you as you worship in your communities!   Connect with Roma!

The first time I ever encountered Jesus was in worship.    In this episode, I share 3 pivotal encounters I have had with the Lord that have impacted me profoundly.   I don't normally share such personal stories, but I felt a strong prompt from the Lord to unpack these stories with you.     I share a time I was leading Indescribable by Chris Tomlin and receiving an internal vision of being in the throne room that has greatly impacted me...   Another time I was leading Rain Down by Martin Smith when a physical manifestation took place that was completely unexpected and created a course correction in my ministry….   Most importantly, I hope it inspires you to hunger after his presence so that he can meet you in ways that will not only bless you but also transform you! We want to encounter God, but he also wants to encounter us!   "Genuine spiritual knowledge lies not in wonderful and mysterious thoughts but in actual spiritual experience through union of the believer's life with truth".

In this episode of Release the Sound – A Podcast on Prophetic Worship, I show you my raw process of stepping into a prophetic flow to sing spontaneously. I cover the different ways you can do this such as singing what you see in the spirit, singing from scripture, and singing from prophetic words.   What we discuss:  [00:57] My Raw Process – It's Not Gonna Be Perfect [01:37] Singing What You See In The Spirit [14:15] Singing From Scripture [24:02] Singing From Prophetic Words Key Quotes:    “I'd rather step out and be wrong than never step out and be right.” - Roma Waterman    “This place of authenticity, this place of vulnerability is really important.

Sometimes that's the Lord saying, ‘Hey, there's something that needs to be sung out here.'” - Roma Waterman     “We all have our reasons for not releasing [a song], but in the end, I just feel this urgency that the Lord is saying, ‘My voice needs to resound amongst the nations.'

There are so many ways that God gives us Heaven's song, yet I often feel that too many creative people who love the prophetic truly never refine this as part of their gift. In this episode of Release the Sound – A Podcast on Prophetic Worship, I discuss how I think about turning spontaneous moments into structured songs. I'll discuss what it means to write spontaneously, why it's crucial to have songs written this way, the traits that are frequently present in this style of writing, as well as 10 tips on how you can do this.    What we discuss:  [01:28] Writing Spontaneously – The Story Behind ‘Footsteps of my Father' [04:04] Why Turn Spontaneous Moments Into Structured Songs?  [05:45] Characteristics of a Spontaneous Writing Style  [06:54] The Process of Writing Footsteps of My Father  [13:06] 10 Ideas to Help You Develop a Song from a Spontaneous Moment Key Quotes:    “Spontaneous moments can be direct downloads from Heaven and combining that download with the craft of songwriting is a powerful combination.” - Roma Waterman    “I often feel that too many creative people who love the prophetic truly never refine this as part of their gift.” - Roma Waterman    “This is how we mature in the prophetic. Sometimes things that I thought stood out to me when I was singing it, is not the highlight when I listen back. So you hear and see things from a different perspective as a listener than you would as a presenter. That's why you should listen to everything.” - Roma Waterman    “Many times as we worship we're simply just hearing what is being sung in Heaven. And we join that as we sing it. This is so powerful because as a worshiper, you're releasing the spiritual dimension into the natural dimension.” - Roma Waterman    “I always try to keep this as my goal; It's about the secret place first, before it's for the marketplace.” - Roma Waterman    Resources Mentioned: Footsteps of my Father by Roma Waterman  With the Angels of Heaven by Roma Waterman  Connect with Roma!

Because the more that we know Him, the more confidence we'll have to know what He wants and how He wants us to minister in certain situations.”  - Roma Waterman    “Worship is a dance of divine communication between you, your congregation, and the Lord.” - Roma Waterman   “We don't have to feel that just because we are leaders, we must have all the answers.

It's about understanding the moment –  What is the Lord actually saying in the moment? Is He wanting to encourage people? Is He wanting you to sing against a spirit of suicide? What is He wanting you to sing over people? You're carrying a message for the moment.” - Roma Waterman    Connect with Roma!
