One Voice
Last week I had a rad opportunity to lead worship for the ‘One Voice’ event! One Voice is an initiative started by the Lausanne base to run quarterly satellite linked worship times across the globe. Using YWAM’s ‘Genesis’ technology, we were linked last Wednesday night to nine other bases, in Switzerland, Egypt, Brazil, Argentina, Colorado, Denver, Ensenada
It was an interesting challenge – leading worship in sync with worship leaders many time zones away simultaneously, but what fun! When it came our turn to lead the several hundred people gathered across the world, we sang the simple song “I exalt thee”, then the chorus “O Come Let Us Adore Him”.
It was crazy – something shifted inside of all of us as we joined as one body to adore the One who had saved us, redeemed us, and brought us so much life. It was suddenly so easy to see, so clear, that this, THIS is what we were made for. The worship and adoration of the Living God, as one body, many tribes, many nations, singing with one heart, one voice, one purpose – that Christ would be lifted up! He is SO worthy of our worship. I feel like I’m just beginning to discover just how worthy he is…. So crazy.
It truly was an honor to be together…. We didn’t want to leave – one day we won’t have to! Bless up!
PS. the Alvarez is still bustin out the tuneful adoration
Thanks to Thema Black for the photos!



Ha John! Thats so awesome bro. Sounds amazing. Stoked your getting fired up for worship again and that the alvarez is still such a brilliant guitar! DO you have to use a humidifier or something with it or is it doing OK?
