Christian Guitar Girls Podcast Chelsea Amber

When Elise Bourn was just ten years old, she gave her music to God. As she got older and decided to pursue this God-given passion, the road didn't go as she had envisioned. She waited two years before God started opening doors to do music ministry, and it wasn't in the places she expected. Now she is bringing His love to stages outside the church and leaning into the leading of the Holy Spirit as she goes.
 
Check out my encouraging conversation with Elise as she talks about God's leading and lordship over her music and offers insights for our songwriting and music ministry.

When French worship leader Esther Albiser first gave her life to Jesus, she had no idea that He would soon carry her through one of the darkest seasons of her life when she lost her father. To process the grief, she learned to play the guitar and began to pour her heart out to Him through song. Her love for worship eventually led her to ministry in a house of prayer in France, where she currently leads worship.
Tune in to hear her encouragement that God can comfort and heal us in dark times. You'll also get a glimpse of what it looks like to minister in a house of prayer.
Thank You, God, for Your comforting love!

She eventually found her way into music ministry and is now serving God and building His Kingdom through song.

When Lisa Jost first became a mother, she never dreamed that she would one day head out on the road with her husband and eleven children to do music ministry across North America. Then God called her family onto this unconventional path and completely changed her heart so that she couldn't imagine NOT doing it.
 
Tune in to hear how God remained faithful through the highs and lows of life on the road, answered prayer, and provided for her family. She reminds us that when God calls us to head in a specific direction, He makes a way.
