What do you love about your ministry position?
I feel music gives a wonderful opportunity to draw closer to God in a one-on-one, private communion. God is great and deserves my praise and thanks. Every Sunday I want to step a little closer to Him and hopefully at the same time, take the congregation closer to Him during our corporate praise & worship time.
