Andrea Olson and Overflow Worship

On today's episode, Mike and Brandon talk with Andrea Olson of Overflow Worship.

Andrea has been involved in worship ministry nearly all of her life. In 2010, she started a unique 1:1 mentorship program for young worship leaders. As local churches began reaching out for training, the Lord expanded her field of vision. With family in tow, she began touring the midwest and serving the local church. In the United States, 95% of the churches have less than 500 people in attendance. It was from this soil that the Overflow Worship Conference blossomed.

Andrea launched overflowresource.com with a goal to equip worship teams with practical and useful tools. Many worship leaders have full time jobs and serve their church as a volunteer. The resources Andrea provides will be a blessing to these men and women as they prepare for each week's worship service.

The PRAZOR House audience will be encouraged as they listen to Andrea's story and how the Lord has led her along the way.

Josh White and the Deeper Well

On today's episode of The PRAZOR House Brandon and Mike speak with Josh White of Door of Hope!

Josh began his journey in the Seattle grunge band Manray. After coming to Christ, he began leading worship and met Brandon Ebel (Tooth and Nail Records founder). Together they formed the Christian band Telecast. This led to releasing three albums and found success in the contemporary Christian music charts while touring with bands like David Crowder.

Josh would eventually launch into a solar career while founding Door of Hope church in the Hawthorne district of Portland, Oregon. The church grew rapidly in one of the most unchurched cities in America. As new converts joined the church, Josh and the leadership recognized a large influx of music artists. Eventually, Josh would co-found Deeper Well Records with his worship leader, Evan Way. Door of Hope has been the church home for artists like Josh Garrels, Liz Vice, Holly Ann, Tim Mackie (The Bible Project), Eric Earley (Blitzen Trapper), and many more.

The PRAZOR House audience will be encouraged to hear Josh's testimony and how they have impacted the city with the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Door of Hope is a bright light to Portland through solid biblical teaching and artistically creative music.
