Redefining Worship: Mandy Creed Green on Faith, Church Culture, and Evangelism

We need to hold on to things of this world loosely, but hold on tightly to God because some things aren't for you, because it's all His anyway and He is still just and good even if He takes away every blessing in your life.
Ever wondered how leading worship can transform not just a congregation, but the worship leader themselves? Mandy Creed Green takes us through her eye-opening experience at 'The Pursuit of Wholeness' conference, where she led worship for Coming Out, Inc. This isn't your typical church gathering—Mandy shares humorous yet poignant stories about dealing with 'toxic church people' and the surprising ways they impact the faith community.
She paints a vivid picture of the modern church, which she believes is often more focused on comfort than genuine repentance. Mandy doesn't hold back as she critiques how some churches have become businesses rather than sanctuaries for healing and growth. She urges Christians to realign their priorities, emphasizing the importance of sharing the gospel above all else. According to Mandy, the world may be in turmoil, but the church is too preoccupied with internal squabbles to notice.
Her call to action is clear: 'Hold the things of this world loosely, but hold on tightly to God'. This episode is a wake-up call for anyone feeling disillusioned by church politics or seeking a deeper connection with their faith. Mandy's blend of humor and heartfelt conviction makes for a compelling listen that challenges us to rethink our approach to worship and evangelism.
Whether you're struggling with addiction, grief, or simply looking for spiritual guidance, this episode offers a refreshing perspective on what it means to truly follow God's plan.
