Suzy and Paulette

I’m excited to tell you guys about an event we’re having on September 25th! Suzy Yaraei and her friend and co-writer Paulette Wooten will be here to instruct and encourage in the areas of songwriting, vocal techniques, and flowing in the Spirit.

When Suzy and her husband Kamran were here recently, Grae spoke about how much Suzy has influenced the generation of worship leaders that are currently making waves all across the Body and the world. I meant to share that day that it was the same for me – Suzy has inspired me as a worshiper more than anyone else has, and witnessing her unbridled worship years ago at a MorningStar conference played a big part in setting me free from self-focused reservation.

Suzy, along with Paulette, has written some of our favorite worship songs, including one of my all-time favorite Resurrection songs (“He’s Alive”). So I’m excited about them talking to us about songwriting. Also, being that Suzy is an accomplished vocalist (and not just in Christian circles), I look forward to the insights she will share with the singers among us. Paulette will have a lot to share as well. Not only did she pen much of the music in Suzy’s songs, she’s a worship leader and recording artist and a successful music producer.

This event will be great for worship leaders, vocalists and musicians, and songwriters who want to go further in their worship artistry. The cost is $40 in advance, or $50 day of (if there’s space still available). You can register by following this link:

There will also be an open worship event Friday the 24th with a full band (including yours truly), and Kamran, Suzy, and Paulette will be at DaySpring on the following Sunday, as well.
