Why We Sing: The Power of Congregational Worship (with Luke Hill & Sean DeMars)
Why do we sing in church? Is congregational singing just a tradition, or is there something deeper happening when we lift our voices together in worship? And what makes a song truly singable for the whole church?
In this episode, Jonathan and Laurie sit down with Luke Hill and Sean DeMars to discuss the power of singing in corporate worship. Luke shares his journey from American Idol to rediscovering the beauty of hymnody, while Sean unpacks why congregational singing is more than just an emotional experience. They explore the importance of choosing singable, biblically rich songs, avoiding performance-driven worship, and reviving forgotten hymns for a new generation. Whether you’re a worship leader, a pastor, or someone who just loves to sing on Sundays, this conversation will help you think more deeply about how and why we sing as one church body.
