Dan Wilt - Songs Are A Place We Go

In this episode of The Ferment, Adam chats with Dan Wilt about growing up as a descendant of coal miners in a small town, the profound way in which hymns drew him as a child, and his experience of waking up to Holy moments and spaces. Dan talks about the moment he learned songs are a place of healing and ministry of the Lord, the spiritual grounding and transformation he experiences through practicing a Daily Examen, and how writing prayers recently brought him through a dark season. Finally, Dan leaves us with a powerful word about cultivating a secret life of worship to the Lord.

Dan Wilt a long-time Vineyard worship leader, songwriter, teacher, and encourager of heartful worship, who believes that songs are a place we go to meet with God. He is the co-author of Sheltering Mercy: Prayers Inspired by the Psalms (Psalms 1-75) and Endless Grace: Prayers Inspired by the Psalms (Psalms 76-150) with Brazos Press. Dan is stirred by the sound of the saints worshipping—in circles and in cathedrals, in living rooms and in hospital rooms, in nature and in church halls—wherever hearts are opening to Jesus.

Serving in Vineyard, Anglican, and Wesleyan streams, Dan has a heart to fan into flame the fires of worship, and the spiritual lives of creative leaders, in both contemporary and liturgical environments. He teaches in conferences, university settings, seminaries, and churches around the world on worship, theology and the arts, and spiritual formation. You can connect with Dan through his email list at DanWilt.com.

He lives with his wife Anita outside of Nashville, TN, and they have three grown children.
