Ep 163: Beyond The Music - Choosing Daily Obedience (Part 2)

Send us Fan Mail"Today on Plays On Word Radio, we continue our discussion with our dear brother, pastor, author, and worship leader Harold B., as we delve into the meaning of true worship."What if worship isn’t about the song you sing but the choice you make when sin crouches at the door? We sit down with pastor, author, and worship leader Harold B to reframe worship as obedience, presence, and love that moves from the private prayer closet into the messy beauty of team life. Starting with Cain and Abel, Harold walks us through the moment of decision where God’s grace offers a real option and our will either yields or resists. That hinge—choose God’s way or your own—becomes the truest test of worship.We talk about carrying God’s presence into every space, not confining Him to a set or a sanctuary. Harold shares how desire for God must be formed by Scripture, meditation, and repentance, and how many of us need to unlearn our assumptions before we can live worship the way God intended. From there, we pivot to community: loving God with all we are, then proving it by loving our neighbor. Teams become the training ground where forgiveness is chosen before feelings, humility outruns talent, and submission to leadership shapes character. Practical rhythms matter—praying for one another during rehearsal, inserting Bible study into practice, and creating space to confess and heal so the song comes from a whole heart.Drawing on the Levite pattern fulfilled in Christ, Harold reminds us that the torn veil means bold access for every believer. When two or three gather in His name without agendas, unity becomes power. We dive into the costs and rewards of this path: carrying your weight, dying to self, honoring authority, and letting your life sing louder than the mic ever could. If you’re a worship leader, a volunteer, or simply someone who wants your choices to honor God, this conversation clears the fog and points to a lifestyle that changes atmospheres because it surrenders first.If this spoke to you, follow the show, share it with a friend on your team, and leave a quick review with one takeaway you’re choosing to live this week.
