  • Excellent Thoughts!

    This podcast will be worth your time! I appreciate Mackenzie’s thoughts on modern worship. I always knew something was off but could never put a finger on it and Mackenzie helped me get to the bottom of it. I recommend this podcast to anyone in church, but especially Pastors and Worship Leaders.

  • Great insight

    Grateful for the insight on topics I’ve never really been aware of, but so grateful they have been brought to my attention through this podcast! Especially on the “Jesus is my boyfriend” episode, I was never aware of this trend, but as of today ( 1/24/25 ) , upperroom released a new song today called “dream” which has exactly what you described and talked about in that podcast episode, to where I wasn’t able to make it through the song, so thank you for that episode! Although there might be some... more

I didn’t pay so much attention to the lyrics and I had no idea what their respective churches believe in. I was just excited of being in a church family again so I allowed myself to be naive a... more

  • An Incredible, Rare, and Necessary Podcast

    There are very few experienced and knowledgeable believers on music, worship AND theology, but Mackenzie Morgan is certainly one of them. My wife and I adore her insight, care and wisdom. The body of Christ will ever benefit from her words of kindness and truth as she faithfully expounds our current culture of Christian music and compares it with holy scripture. She even dares to incorporate forefathers (and mothers) of the faith and their theological insight into the music and lyrics that we wo... more
