Ministry Objective

My objective is to make Jesus famous! To provide consistant sounds of our culture within a progressive church that desires to propel people near and far from God. Please visit www.jholden.info

Music

Powerful is music... It tells a story with feel. Today music is inextricably intertwined into our way of life. It has the ability to transend barriers that many people have. In today’s church, music must be real and current. It must have the feel that people recognize and understand. Providing consistant sounds of our culture through songs that bring to life the cause of Chirst is truly my goal. Whether it’s using main stream or solid worship songs, each is purposed to connect people closer to God in their journey. I also strive to propel and enable others to take ownership in their ability to become strong musicians, vocalist, and leaders within the local church. I am passionate about developing a culture of music within all areas of ministry including teenagers and children.

Creative

Creative elements and worship leading gives me the opportunity to invest life into others. Heather and I have compassion for people. We desire to see others pursue and accomplish the purpose for their lives. We push others beyond a mediocre lifestyle by taking calculated risks and doing church different than the average perception. Our heart leaps to brainstorm ways of bring a series to life and give feet to specific bible text!
