One of the most encouraging things is to see that so many of these young musicians and worship leaders are really concerned with doing a good job representing the truth of Jesus in their songs, and not just concerned with creative and musical progression.

I think it's so important that the church displays what it can look like to be "one." Our society can be so fragmented, and there's an opportunity for the worshipping church to give some leadership into that area.

Anthony Skinner has a fire in his heart to worship God, and to encourage and equip others to do the same.

Worship songs can't just be rooted in culture - they won't be deep enough. They have to be rooted in scripture.

I have the privilege of ministering in many different streams of the church. When you do that you're never going to subscribe to everything each other believe, but there's always so much common ground. The main and plain stuff you have in common, so you build upon that. I've never found a stream of the church I didn't learn something from. Every single time, even if I didn't personally agree with everything, there was something I took away, or learned, and felt like a stronger worshipper or worship leader.

Singing is easy. The proof is always in the living.

In some of the best worship songs we bring our praises to God - yet at the same time also end up preaching to ourselves.
