From the Back Cover:
What is it like to be the band leader who breaks a guitar string in the middle of a sensitive ‘Come, Holy Spirit’ moment? How does it feel to lead worship at a new church for the first time and accidentally begin by singing a completely different verse to everybody else? And how can a singer confidently lead a song when their own child is standing up on the front row of chairs with their fingers in their ears?
Welcome to my world! In 1986, aged eighteen, I became a Christian and a busy church musician who quickly learned to sing, play guitar and lead praise and worship. That was forty years ago and culminates here. This book represents four decades of my life rejoicing, laughing, praying, screaming and crying my way through the good, the bad and the ugly of it all.
With raw honesty and heart-wrenching true stories, this fascinating and deeply moving book describes Andrew’s journey, witnessing many victories, tragedies and ‘oh-my-gosh’ moments. It will appeal to anyone with a heart for worship.
