living to know God and to make Him known

Encounter Worship

Encounter Worship is a community of worship leaders dedicated to helping God's creation connect with the Creator. We believe these connection points, or encounters, will lead people to find wholeness, purpose, healing, and rest.

We passionately believe in mentoring a new generation of worship leaders, equipping them to lead Christ followers into a deeper relationship with God and with their faith community. We manifest this belief in various ways including trainings, retreats, camps, one-on-one mentoring, blogs, and podcasts.

Our Core Values

  • the Presence of God

    We believe people find wholeness, purpose, healing, and rest in the presence of God. As carriers of God's presence, it is our responsibility to respect and guard God's presence.

  • Humility

    We believe that the Throne Room is for everyone. No one is better than anyone else. We are all equal at the foot of the cross. We recognize that gifts and talents are from God and those gifts and talents are for His glory alone. The position he grants us and the favor He gives us comes with a responsibility to exalt the name of Jesus with excellence and a sacrifice of our preferences.

  • Integrity

    We believe that integrity is required to live a life of holiness before God. We are the same on the platform and in our homes. Integrity is best lived by honoring the Word of God and living as close to His Word as possible.

  • Servanthood

    We believe to be like Christ we must serve like Christ. Jesus came to serve, and to give His life as a ransom for many; therefore, it is our call to serve others before ourselves.
