Every Sunday morning, millions allow strangers to aid them in their most vulnerable moments. But who are these people, and how are they able to do such work?
A Worshiper’s Heart, a documentary film of the duo singing group A and A Double Portion, gives a closer look at what is entailed in worshipping leading to reveal the lifestyle and energy that goes into ushering people into the presence of God. This examination will give others a better understanding of the effort and travail of being a worship leader.
