Money is not the root of all kinds of evil. The love of money is. It’s also the root of a lot of bad art.
Michael GungorSpend your energy on things you believe in, and do them honestly and to the best of your ability.
Michael GungorI kind of grew up a guitar nerd and I tried to figure out how to shred on an acoustic guitar as a kid, while listening to jazz or whatever. So that is kind of a different thing and my church background, growing up with worship kind of the ground that I learned how to play music from. Those are all odd ways of growing up, compared to most people, so I think the music has plenty of uniqueness in that.
Michael GungorAny religious, philosophical or political idea that doesn't lead one towards love ought to be forsaken
Michael GungorIf leading worship is just about bringing a group of people into a room so we can get goosebumps and sing songs together, there's not much value in that. But if leading worship is a means to an end, that we leave this place as a different kind of people, as part of a new humanity that God wants to create... then that matters.
