The Broken Place

thoughts on worship, leadership, and life for broken people

Tuesday, July 12, 2005

Welcome to the Broken Place.

The Broken Place is a blog designed for students of worship and worship leading. I, Joe Poppino, will do my best to post bi-weekly, sharing my thoughts, ruminations, and anything I am learning about leading worship and living life.

A major value of The Broken Place is exactly what you'd expect: brokenness. What this means is that all the advice, thoughts, and such that I share will be shared from a perspective of imperfection and honesty. You will not find advice that says things like, "A worship leader must be the best christian out of everybody in the congregation," or "If you struggle with sin, then you shouldn't be a worship leader." What you will find is one broken man sharing his struggles, and finding God in the midst of them.

I hope that my journey can be an encouragement to you, and that you might even learn something or have your heart changed by the testimony of God's faithfulness to me in the Broken Place.

    Joe you are a constant example and inspiration and I praise the Lord that you are in my life. You blaze the trail on what it is to be a broken person who loves the Lord and thank you for not always hiding that fact. I love that I often meet the Lord when I hang out with you. :)

    Your Sis in Christ,
    Whitney
