E often speaks through fingers on strings, so I felt really honoured that he was willing to share with us on this panel through words from his mouth, because every time E speaks his words are always so life-giving, thoughtful and wise.
E is a treasure and I thought this beautiful testimony of how he and his family are practically loved and cared for in the context of being part of a local church worship team is such an encouragement and challenge to every leader with gifted people in their care.
All people regardless of gifting deserve to be treated with care and dignity in context of a team, but it takes secure, mature leaders to be unthreatened by those God has gifted especially uniquely and to understand that these servants and their gifting belong to the Lord - and that the role of a leader is to help shepherd and care, not to doubt, undermine, project or exploit because of an undealt with insecurity or ambition on the part of a leader.
“Be shepherds of God’s flock that is under your care, watching over them—not because you must, but because you are willing, as God wants you to be; not pursuing dishonest gain, but eager to serve; not lording it over those entrusted to you, but being examples to the flock.” 1 Peter 5:2-3
“Whoever can be trusted with very little can also be trusted with a lot. Whoever is dishonest with very little is dishonest with a lot.” Luke 16:10
checked off a bucket list venue. such a surreal and unforgettable experience. especially getting to do it with my brother @n__edwards and my @elevation.rhythm family. God is so good and I’m so thankful to see him fulfill moments like this 🫶🏼
2024 has been uncertain, yet the most fulfilling year as I look back. We welcomed our sweet Lennon into the world. She’s the greatest blessing and I’m so honored to be her dad. I love getting to watch Erika as a mom too. She’s so patient, strong, and overflowing with love. Life feels so precious lately and every moment is worth being fully present for. I’m overwhelmed by God’s faithfulness and grace that sustains and draws me nearer to Him each day.
I feel so blessed to be able to make music and I’m thankful for the incredible people I get to do it with! I believe every song is an opportunity to share the gospel with someone. That inspires me to write and play with more confidence and conviction
Welcome to the world…
