I’ve been asked about my recent quoting of a Jason Upton lyric during a recent prayer and I wanted to respond to that publicly in light of the intimate connections between false doctrine and charismatic worship music/leaders.
I have enjoyed some of Jason’s music over the years and one of his songs ministered to me deeply in 2018 during an important stage of our journey away from compromised churches/thinking. Because I don’t know enough about his wider ministry, or his relational connections, I am not able to endorse him. Truth be told, this issue of worship/music being negatively associated with false doctrine and dodgy leaders/churches is a profound grief to me as I’m sure it is for many of you.
One worship leader who I have corresponded with on this recently and whose music I trust to be “safe” is Aaron Shust.
But we look to the Lord not man.
Shalom, Nick
