Most worship leaders think their problem is skill, confidence or pressure. It's not. In this episode, Alexandra Osteen from Lakewood Music reveals the deeper issue most leaders never address: identity. Because when you don't fully know who God created you to be, everything else feels harder—leading, preparing, even showing up on Sundays. Alexandra shares how her journey—from growing up in the church to leading at Lakewood—helped her move from uncertainty to confidence in her calling. You'll learn why identity shapes everything you do on stage, how to stop comparing yourself to other leaders, and what it looks like to lead from a place of peace instead of pressure. If you've ever questioned whether you're "good enough" to lead… this episode is for you.

Michael interviews Adam Westlake, a worship leader and biblical counselor, about using music and singing as a growth assignment in counseling. Westlake describes singing as “integrative work” that aligns what believers know and feel, citing Colossians 3:16 and Ephesians 5 on singing psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs, and discussing James' connection between suffering, prayer, and cheerful singing. They argue singing is often under-practiced outside Sunday services yet can help sufferers express truth “slant,” foster solidarity, and provide “portable theology” the Spirit brings to mind. They address concerns about emotional manipulation, emphasizing tethering emotion to what is true about Jesus, and note the value of varied song forms. Westlake shares a daily text-based devotional, “Sing,” and the episode ends with him leading the doxology.00:00 Podcast Welcome00:37 Meet Adam Westlake01:04 Why Singing Matters04:53 Singing in Suffering07:39 Worship Leading and Counseling09:56 Emotion and Worship13:26 Music as Homework17:22 Daily Sing Devotional19:41 Doxology and FarewellEpisode MentionsRegister Now for the 2026 Called to Counsel Conference All My Questions - Bethany Bernard (Spotify) Sing - Daily Devotional with the Worship Initiative Better Days Counseling - Adam Westlake Counseling

Does this sound like a familiar situation? It's the end of the week. You're about to leave the office when you suddenly think: Did all of our volunteers confirm for Sunday? You scroll through the schedule and sure enough—there’s a gap. Instead of allowing yourself to spiral into a panic, try this: In Services, Planning Center has gap alerts. Turn them on, and you’ll get a heads-up days before service if positions are still unfilled or unconfirmed. No more end of the week scrambling.

What happens when your platform grows faster than your character can hold it… and the thing you dreamed of starts costing you what matters most?  In this episode, Keith chats with Andy Cherry, a seasoned worship leader, songwriter, and current touring musician for Brandon Lake, for a raw conversation on identity, shame and calling. Andy shares his whirlwind early career—signing a record deal in his 20s, walking away to fight for his marriage, and the painful (but formative) season of learning to lead when nobody's clapping.  Then it gets personal: the moment Andy realized he wasn't being motivated by God… but by shame—"like you write yourself a letter and forge God's signature on it."  If you've ever felt disqualified, stuck, or afraid to step out again, this will reset your perspective.   Press play and listen now.    About Your Guest  Andy Cherry is a worship leader, songwriter, and musician who has spent years serving the Church both on stage and behind the scenes. Early in his career, Andy released music and led worship in large gatherings before stepping away from the spotlight to focus on his family and long-term calling.  Over the past decade, he has continued writing and collaborating with artists across the worship community, contributing songs recorded by Brandon Lake, Passion, Josh Baldwin, and others. He has also helped shape projects for fellow worship leaders while quietly building a reputation as a trusted songwriter and creative voice.  Today, Andy serves at Seacoast Church and travels as musical director and acoustic guitarist for Brandon Lake. Known for his heart for authenticity and family, Andy is now releasing new music inspired by fatherhood, including his upcoming project Songs For My Son Vol. 1. His latest single, "The Good Stuff," reflects a season of rediscovering what truly matters in life, faith, and worship.      Worship Online is your new secret weapon for preparing each week.

Send a textRounding out this latest installment of "Stuff That's Been On My Mind," we take a look at a topic that has been brewing over recent years.  The modern worship industry has become a multi-million dollar business, generating massive revenue streams for various churches, pastors, and artists.  But behind the curtain of this ministry, are there issues within any of these churches or with the worship itself?  Is it time for new voices to rise, is it time for a reset in who/what sets the tone for worship in many of our churches?  This podcast answers to the affirmative:  that yes worship does need a reset; a renewal of sorts.  Songs have gotten overwhelmingly me-focused, theological truth has gotten watered down, and most of our songs come from a small, but centralized group of writers and churches.  This episode invites you to enter this discussion with an open mind and leave well-informed with some action steps to take.  Articles mentioned in the episode:The Centralization Of Modern Worship Music: Why A Few Voices Dominating Worship Is A DangerOpinion: Church Music Has Become Big Business

Have you ever wondered why music moves us? It transcends culture, yet is an important part of most cultures. Today on PEP Talk, we reflect on how the gift of music speaks to us about God's character. That makes it an excellent medium for communicating God's truth not only within the church, but also with the culture around us.Greg de Blieck is a Glasgow-based musician and hymn writer. He serves as a Worship Leader at his local church and is involved with the New Scottish Hymns music ministry.

Caleb Flynn, 39, a former worship pastor and American Idol contestant from Tipp City, Ohio, has been charged with the murder of his wife, Ashley Flynn, 37, following a multi-agency investigation that includes the FBI and Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation.Ashley Flynn was found shot twice in the head in the master bedroom of the couple's home on Cunningham Court in the early hours of February 16th, 2026. Her husband called 911 reporting a home invasion. Police deployed K-9 units and a drone searching for a suspect. No suspect was found.According to the criminal complaint, prosecutors allege Flynn shot Ashley with a 9mm handgun and staged the scene to mislead officers — leaving the garage door open, the center console of his truck open, and creating what investigators described as deliberate misdirection. A key detail in the affidavit: the side door to the garage that an alleged intruder supposedly used was blocked by a large refrigerator that would have required physical movement to open.Flynn was arrested February 19th and charged with one count of murder, two counts of felonious assault with a deadly weapon, and two counts of tampering with evidence. He pleaded not guilty at his February 20th arraignment and was held on $2 million bond with no contact ordered with his minor children.Ashley Flynn was a seventh-grade volleyball coach, substitute teacher, and deeply active member of the Tipp City faith community. She was eight days from her 38th birthday. Her family released a public statement expressing confidence in the arrest. A GoFundMe for her daughters surpassed $96,000 in 48 hours. A planned public celebration of life was replaced by a private service after Flynn's arrest.The preliminary hearing is set for February 26th.

On February 16th, 2026, at 2:30 in the morning, Caleb Flynn called 911 from his home in Tipp City, Ohio. He was frantic. Hysterical. He said someone had broken into his house and shot his wife twice in the head. He called out her name. He said her face had gone white. He begged the dispatcher to hurry.His wife, Ashley Flynn, 37, was pronounced dead at the scene.Three days later, Caleb Flynn was arrested and charged with her murder.Prosecutors allege Flynn — a former worship leader, music pastor, and American Idol contestant who once told national television that he loved his wife more than anything in the world — shot Ashley with a 9mm handgun and staged the crime scene to look like a home invasion. According to the criminal complaint, investigators were "led astray by the staging of the crime scene." K-9 units and a drone swept the neighborhood looking for an intruder that, according to prosecutors, never existed.What unraveled the story wasn't cutting-edge forensics. It was a refrigerator — a large appliance pushed up against the only door an intruder could have used to enter. A door you can't push a refrigerator back against from the outside.Ashley Flynn was a seventh-grade volleyball coach, a substitute teacher, a LifeWise Academy instructor, and a woman her community described as a pillar of their church. She died eight days before her 38th birthday while her two daughters slept down the hall. The town of Tipp City tied red and white ribbons around every streetlamp on Main Street. A GoFundMe raised nearly $96,000 in two days. The celebration of life that had been planned for Sunday was canceled the day Caleb was booked into the Miami County Jail.Flynn pleaded not guilty. His attorney called the arrest a rush to judgment. Ashley's family released a statement saying they trust law enforcement took the proper steps. The FBI is involved. The preliminary hearing is scheduled for February 26th.Today on Hidden Killers, Tony Brueski walks through everything we know — the 911 call, the crime scene, the staging, the community response, and the moment Ashley Flynn's own family publicly stood behind the prosecution.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Sexual sin among worship leaders and Christian men isn't proof that faith doesn't work — it's proof that isolation does. In this episode, Sathiya Sam explains how pressure, access, and identity distortion create secrecy, even in devoted leaders. Drawing from personal experience, he shows why spiritual activity alone can't heal unaddressed wounds and why honest brotherhood, rooted identity, and accountability are essential for lasting freedom.
