Who Is Collective Worship?

Gathering together as brothers and sisters in Christ is among the most life-giving joys of my life. God made a way for us to be redeemed. For us to be made new, and released from our sin and shame, our anxieties and our addictions. To be reconciled to Him and receive the reward of eternal life. Jesus chose to stay on the cross that day out of His pure, undeserved love and grace for broken and unlovable us. He is worthy of our praise.

Over the last seven months, I joined with some of my favorite people in the world to worship together – to write, sing, and play music for Jesus. Some of these people I’ve led worship with and done life with for over a decade, others only more recently so. They represent so many different walks of life, across denominations, age ranges, ethnicities, locations… all held together by the common thread of Christ’s love for us.

At last count – 57 different people (!) have been involved in the Collective Worship project, from all across the country. Check the map below!

Below are the album credits as they stand today. I am truly overwhelmed by God’s orchestration of life that allowed me to know all of these people. I am also blessed beyond measure that they were all willing to offer up their time, talents, skills, and hearts to making this project a reality! -Matt
