About the show

The Walk from Worship Leader Magazine is a podcast of real conversations with worship leaders, artists, pastors and believers, hosted by worship leader, songwriter and pastor Kurtis Parks. Each episode is about the moments when faith was tested, obedience cost something, and God showed up. Guests include Tauren Wells, Lecrae, Jenn Johnson, Matt Maher, Aaron Shust, Leanna Crawford, Ginny Owens and 150+ more. We talk about calling and surrender, worship leading and songwriting, church hurt and healing, unanswered prayer, and what it looks like to walk by faith in everyday life. Whether you lead worship every Sunday or you're just trying to follow Jesus through a hard season, The Walk is here to encourage you. Faith isn't just a moment. It's a walk, and you don't have to walk it alone. Presented by Planning Center. Show notes and more at worshipleader.com/podcast-network/the-walk
