Using her talents and training, Katie has already been working in worship ministry. Her sophomore year at GCU, she became an apprentice on the Chapel worship team where she observed the dynamics and responsibilities of being a part of the team. This year, however, Katie is serving as a co-leader and has learned a great deal about following the Lord with boldness and not being ruled by timidity. She drew a lot her of new perspective from learning to speak in front of people, leading prayers and guiding her team just as Moses did when God asked him to lead. Her desire in this leadership position is to be bold in Christ and obedient in preparation.
Along with the experience on the Chapel worship team, Katie also had the opportunity to be the worship leader last year at a church plant called Valley Life. She described how she really had to jump into this position and learn in the process. She was responsible for schedules, sets, auditions and directing her team. Through striving to simply do her best, Katie learned to rely so much more on God.
Through the creation and completion of her first EP, her time at GCU and in the worship arts program and her experience in the field, Katie has gained confidence and boldness in Christ to continue leading in worship ministry and using her talents and creativity to glorify the Lord.
