“Worship That Encounters a Person, Not Just a Feeling”

In this heartfelt episode of The Walk, Seph Schlueter invites us into the deeper story behind his music and ministry. Known for his viral hit Counting My Blessings, Seph shares how his journey with God has been marked not by platform, but by presence.

From his earliest experiences of God's nearness in worship to the raw wrestlings with identity and surrender, Seph’s devotional reminds us that worship isn't about performance—it's about proximity to Jesus. He reflects on lessons from Scripture, the beauty of obedience, and the spiritual discipline of remaining rooted in daily prayer.

For every worship leader, songwriter, or believer struggling with doubt or chasing recognition, Seph offers a timely encouragement: “You can’t lead people where you haven’t gone.” This devotional is a call back to intimacy.

The Walk: A Devotional Podcast from Worship Leader Magazine

The Walk Podcast shares real conversations with worshippers—moments when faith was tested, obedience cost something, and God showed up.

You’ll hear the struggle.
You’ll hear the choice.
You’ll hear what God did.

Because faith isn’t just a moment—it’s a walk. And you don’t have to walk it alone.
