FCM062 – How To Have Your Songs Sung In Church with Jared Anderson May 11, 2017

Show notes

There are musicians who know from the very start just what they want to do. The path for Centricity music artist, Jared Anderson, is not quite stereotypical.

Anderson received a degree in Music Composition from Oral Roberts University in 2001. He took a liking specifically to Jazz and Classical arrangements and admits that he had his misgiings about worship music, which sometimes contain simple melodies and repetitive lyrics. However in this scrutiny, he found himself beginning to lead worship for his home church in Colorado. Soon enough, it was evident to him that God was calling him to be obedient to write and lead worship songs. Not just to write them, but to live them and walk like He did.

In this obedience, Anderson tells us some stories that would lead him to writing such widely known worship tunes such as “Almighty”, “Hear Us From Heaven”, and one that spread through churches across the globe like wild fire, “The Great I Am”.
