Questionnaire:

Name: John Irungu
Nickname: Alekabansele
Favorite Bible Verse: Micah 6:8

How did you connect with Streams? I thinking I connected awhile back while signing up for the last ReFocus but I totally forgot about it until recently when a notification popped up on my email. Generally I’m trying to figure out the platform.

What’s your go-to karaoke song? I don’t think I have one. I’ve never had to do this before.

What do you believe about worship? Worship is loving God.

How are you connected to worship within your church? I am one of the lead worshippers on our worship team and also serve as a sound engineer for our worship gatherings.

If you could lead worship with any artist, who would it be? Shane and Shane

Do you have a pre-show ritual? Not really, just a short prayer to focus my heart and mind.

What’s the best piece of advice you’ve ever received about worship leading? Minimise distraction… the importance of limiting things that impede the natural, organic flow in an authentic worship environment.

What’s your favorite worship song that most people wouldn’t know? There are several… so one of them is Oh Lead Me by Delirious?

If you could lead worship in a completely dierent setting (like a concert hall or a beach), where would it be and why? Probably a local park/play ground. It’s one way of sharing Christ. People are naturally drawn to music.

Anything fun you want us to know about you? I love using music to bring people closer to God and mentoring the next generation of worshippers. Also, I might just be the guy tweaking the sound at your next church event!
