    Taproot Session 2: Partakers of the divine: the taproot of worship

    Session 2: Partakers of the divine: the Taproot of worship What if worship isn’t the ultimate priority of the church? In this episode of Taproot Sessions, Dave Hook and Corrina Jennings peel back the layers of our "Sunday morning habits" to uncover the Taproot: a deep, spiritual union with the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. From the template of Isaiah 6 to the "Neverland" of God’s kingdom, Dave shares how a moment of "holy discontent" transformed his 46-year ministry from leading songs to cultivating a life-giving reunion with God. Whether you are a worship leader feeling the weight of performance or a believer longing for "something more," this conversation is an invitation to see worship not as a hammer, but as a window. Key Takeaways:Worship vs. God: Why our focus must shift from the act of worship to the Person of God. The "RE" Prefix: Exploring the redemptive arc of Reconciling, Redeeming, and Reuniting. Worship as a Window: Moving from a Western "functional" view of worship to an Eastern "relational" reality. Holy Discontent: Understanding why your frustration with the "status quo" might actually be your calling.

    Taproot Sessions - Session 1: What Matters Most When We Gather to Worship - Introducing Taproot Sessions

    In this inaugural episode of Taproot Sessions, Corrina Jennings introduces Dave Hook, the founder of Rooted Worship. With over 46 years of ministry experience, Dave shares his "origin story"—from his early days as a rock band musician constantly trying to get the crowd to sing along, to navigating the major shifts in modern church music movements. The conversation centers on the philosophy behind Rooted Worship, moving beyond the surface of "what to think" or "how to do" music, and instead focusing on the "why" of worship. This session serves as an invitation to worship leaders and congregants alike to dig deeper into their spiritual formation, find validation in the struggles of ministry, and move toward a communal "taproot" system of faith that sustains us well beyond Sunday morning. Show Notes[00:01] Welcome to Taproot Sessions: Introducing the mission of Rooted Worship Ministries [01:43] Meet Dave Hook: A look at Dave’s 46-year journey through ministry, academia, and music production. [03:00] The Heart of a Song Leader: Dave recounts his early days in rock bands and an awkward (but pivotal) moment opening for the band Petra. [05:47] A 26-Year Connection: Corrina shares the story of how she first met Dave through a "Yellow Pages" phone call and how their paths intersected in ministry. [08:17] Evolution of Titles: From "Song Leader" to "Pastor of Spiritual Celebration"—the changing landscape of worship ministry since the 1980s. [11:51] Dethroning the Self: A candid discussion on the occupational hazard of pride in worship leadership and the need for humility. [19:37] Why "Taproot"?: The botanical inspiration behind the ministry—learning from Loblolly pines and Saguaro cacti about stability and depth. [24:10] Mentorship vs. Friendship: Why the next generation of leaders needs identification and validation more than just new techniques. [39:55] Beyond Video Game Spirituality: Redefining sanctification and spiritual formation as a practical, daily walk rather than just acquiring "tools" or "levels." [43:29] The Pando Forest: Using the metaphor of a clonal root system to describe the power of worship in community. *Correction:* Dave was ADJUNCT music faculty at Grand Canyon University, not a professor there.
