Spontaneous Worship - Steffany Gretzinger

Encountering God in a moment

• God promised us there was more, and there has to be more of Him for us to encounter than what was already written.

• “My dad taught me that it’s about His presence in this very moment because a good father knows how to meet their kid at that moment, not try to drag them into something they’re not ready for.”

• “There are churches all over the world singing certain songs, because it’s what God is breathing on, and whether it’s our song or not we should be singing it.”

Vulnerability

• God honors risk-taking and vulnerability.

• Rather than looking for a formula, young worshipers should lead with someone who covers them and gives them a chance to try. 

• “It’s vulnerable every time, and if it’s not, I know I’m not bringing all of me. It should feel a little bit unnerving.”

• “I have to realize the smile of God is all I’m looking for, and it’s easier to get that with God than with people.”

• If we connect and adore Him, and practice taking a risk, He’s going to honor that.

Balancing life on stage and off stage

• “I sit with the Lord and let Him center me before I get on stage.”

• When we only spend time with God while we’re on stage, we will get confused about whether He is just speaking to us or the whole room.

• “I have also learned that if God is wiring in me a message, it’s not only for me.”

• “Sometimes the Lord just says, ‘Let them watch.’ That used to freak me out, but it’s better caught by people than taught.”
