Beyond Sunday Worship Leader Podcast #203: Highlands Worship On Creating A Process for Worship Team Development [Podcast]
For years I’ve admired the work that Church of the Highlands is doing to reach people for Christ. This week’s podcast is a conversation with John Larson and Chris Griffin from Highlands Worship.
I love this because it feels like worship leader friends catching up and talking about ministry. These guys manage a worship team roster of 900 people across 19 campuses in Alabama. It’s staggering.
If you are a multi-site church (or planning on it), listen all the way to the end. So. Much. Gold.

If you’re a musician, you know there’s nothing like a well built, inspiring instrument. A great instrument is an inspiration itself, beyond just the functionality and playability. That’s why it’s important to have an instrument that inspires you and holds up to your active lifestyle.
Let me introduce you to Zamar Instruments. Zamar builds custom guitars that are absolutely beautiful, but that also play and sound amazing. Zamar is an amazing small business, passionate about offering individualized attention to each instrument and client for a second-to-none experience. And for you Hebrew wizards out there, Zamar is an Old Testament word for praising the Lord on a stringed instrument.
All the guitars from Zamar are hand built but there is also the option of a custom built guitar that you design from the ground up. Head on over to zamarinstruments.com and mention the Beyond Sunday podcast to get 15% off your guitar. Or just shoot an email to heritagewoodindiana@gmail.com.
