Worship leaders have a unique and crucial role in the church, but can often be unprepared for the spiritual and emotional challenges they face in a ministry that imposes multiple pressures, including the pressure to perform and be the instrument of growth in churches, along with unique tensions around identity. Under this burden, the worship leader is at greater and greater risk for burnout and emotional and spiritual illness. In this important conversation with Justin Unger, Founder and President of Likewise Worship, we explore 3 key pillars of health that support a worship leader in thriving as a healthy leader, intimately connected to their vital calling and deeply rooted in relationship with Jesus.

There is a season in the development of little humans when they cannot yet talk. Ironically, the Lord uses this season for them to PRAISE and to LEAD in PRAISE. If you have ever seen a baby up close, you might have cooed and admired and commented as to their glory. This is the Lord's doing. He uses such little ones to praise Him. He uses such little ones to lead adults in praise. He uses those who cannot talk to shut the mouths of those who can.He uses those who cannot talk to most clearly sing the strengths of God to those who can. The world's best worship leaders are infants. Subscribe for more tomorrowhttps://youtu.be/HrX0nOTl_nw
Leading worship in a small church? You're navigating impossible expectations—blending hymns with modern songs, stretching shoestring budgets, and wondering if anyone else gets it.In this episode, Brandon Pickett and David Morton dive into the real talk rural worship leaders need: How do you transition styles without splitting the church? Which songs actually have theological substance? And where do you find support when you're the only worship leader for miles?David pulls back the curtain on what's working in smaller churches—from service planning strategies that actually stick, to the game-changing workshops and networks designed specifically for leaders like you.This isn't another "mega church worship" conversation. This is about doing ministry where resources are slim, relationships run deep, and every Sunday matters.If you've ever felt isolated in your calling, this episode is your reminder: You're not alone.

In this heartfelt episode, I sit down with Cachét Rayford, Contemporary Christian artist, Arkansas educator, worship leader, and Stellar Awards ballot nominee, for an honest conversation about faith, resilience, and healing after heartbreak.Cachét opens up about the inspiration for her new EP, “Because I Love You,” which was written during a season marked by divorce, the loss of her father, and ministry heartbreak. We discuss how these experiences almost silenced her voice, yet instead, became her breakthrough—igniting a music ministry dedicated to helping women heal, rebuild, and rediscover faith after life's storms.Learn more about Cachét Rayford by visiting www.iamthecachet.com#Faith #Healing #ChristianMusic #MentalHealth #Purpose #WomenEmpowerment #ConversationsWithChan

Just because something is “Christian” or has the label “Worship” on it does not mean its existence is completely sanctified. The truth is, the church exists in the world and is susceptible to any manner of abuse or dysfunction that any organization is. The same could be said for CCM or worship music.

In this episode of the Seers See Podcast, Doug and Emily explore the role of seers as worship leaders. Drawing from Scripture and Doug's book Seers See: Instruction on Seeing into the Spiritual Realm, they discuss how worship creates a throne room atmosphere where God's presence is revealed—echoing David's declaration that “Yahweh is enthroned on the praises of His people.” Together, they consider biblical and modern examples of how seers experience worship in the spirit realm, and why this perspective matters for worship leaders today. From prophetic vision to artistic expression, this conversation uncovers how the gift of seeing intersects with music, creativity and leading people into God's presence. Whether you're a worship leader, seer, pastor, or simply hungry to understand how heaven and earth overlap in worship, this episode will encourage and equip you.Learn more in Doug Overmyer's book Seers See: Instruction on Seeing into the Spiritual Realm.

If you've ever wondered how to engage with the Psalms or songs of the Bible—or if you simply enjoy thoughtful, Spirit-led Bible discussion—you'll enjoy this “behind-the-scenes” conversation.

What if the hardest season of your life was actually preparing you to lead at a level you didn't know was in you? In this vulnerable conversation, Jon opens up about the "fear chatter" that had been stealing his mental space, why he started removing people from his inner circle, and how walking through crisis taught him what authentic care actually looks like. You'll hear his simple but game-changing filter for every worship moment, and why leading through your own brokenness might be the key to reaching others in theirs. If you've ever wondered how to lead with genuine depth instead of surface-level enthusiasm, this conversation will shift how you think about leadership, vulnerability, and what it means to truly serve the room you're called to lead.
