Pastor Jeff Cranston and special guest Jordan Magelssen discuss the importance of true worship. From Jordan's personal story of discovering faith as a 12-year-old, to his journey from high school through college and beyond, he shares how God was at work in his life, calling him to serve His kingdom. Hear about how Jordan felt a strong call to lead people in worship at a summer conference during his junior year of college, and the struggles he faced trying to pursue ministry while also supporting himself financially. This conversation highlights the importance of understanding who God is, rather than allowing tradition or function to take precedence over a relationship with Him - which can lead to empty worship.

“Without the word of God, we have nothing to say. And without the spirit of God, we have nothing to offer. ” - Jordan Magelssen
