Theology of Music
As an associate professor of music and worship and part-time worship pastor, Cliff has spent years thinking deeply about the songs that we sing together as a church during our corporate worship services. Yet, instead of being another deconstructing voice, Cliff seeks to foster unique and edifying conversations with folks who create and lead the songs we sing in corporate worship.

Do You Have A Worship Song Metric?
On this month’s episode, I bring back former guest, Justin Kintzel. While I’ve known Justin for a while through our connections at Liberty University and a quick coffee shop chat a couple of years ago, this will be my first time interviewing him. Justin has written several songs for corporate worship and currently serves as the worship pastor of Grace Church in the Minneapolis/St. Paul area. He and his wife Ashley have 4 children all still at home. They are busy folks! I asked Justin a few weeks ago if he saw any trends in corporate worship about the songs worship leaders use in corporate worship. He and I both recognized a bit of polarization that calls for a metric when choosing songs and I loved his balanced approach. I don’t want to give too much away, but the principles he shares are invaluable for guiding us as we shepherd our congregations in truth and love. Enjoy this month's episode and leave us some feedback with some of your thoughts as well.
