Episode 010: Jimi Cravity on Shaping Culture

jimi-cravity

 
On this episode of the iDisciple Podcast, iDisciple CEO David Henriksen is joined by Jimi Cravity, an Atlanta-based worship leader and talented musician. Jimi stopped by the iDisciple offices to share a devotional with our staff and perform a few songs off of Heaven, his debut EP with sixstepsrecords/Capitol CMG. Afterwards he took some time out of his busy schedule to sit down with David and share his inspirations for the album as well as his thoughts on faith and culture.

In Atlanta, Jimi found a home at Passion City Church, pastored by Louie and Shelley Giglio. He began serving there, eventually using his gifts to lead worship. He has since been featured at Passion Conferences, first with his song “Surrender” on the Passion 2016 worship album, Salvation’s Tide Is Rising. He recently released his Heaven EP, and is going on tour this fall with label mate Crowder.

We pray that this episode will change the way you view worship music and the role Christians should play in influencing culture!
