“Every worship team can benefit from Grant’s workshop. I truly believe that he brings people back to the heart and essence of what worship should be in the church. Sure, every church is different. However, his concepts and methodology bring a healthy unity to the whole team and the congregation.”
“In the few weeks since Grant’s More Than Music Workshop – with us now applying the things he taught the team – our congregational participation is much better than I’ve ever seen before. We are very grateful!”
“At the heart of Grant’s message is the truth that musical worship is not a performance but a time to join as a congregation in praise to God.”
