From Pitch to Praise: “Unity in the Song: Worship That Reflects Heaven” with special guest Rob Brannon

What does it mean to worship with one voice when the world feels divided?

In this episode, Matt and Alan welcome Rob Brannon, Worship & Technology Minister at White Station Church of Christ in Memphis, TN, and baritone vocalist for Acappella from 2005 to 2011.

Rob opens up about his personal connection to his favorite Acappella song "Hush," sharing how it s powerful lyrics became a source of comfort during his father’s passing—and how singing it at his father’s funeral left a lasting imprint on his heart and ministry.

The conversation expands into Rob’s passion for multicultural worship, shaped by the vision of Revelation 7:9–12. He shares the importance of creating worship spaces that reflect the diversity of God’s people—where every voice, genre, and background has a place. With joy as a unifying force, Rob offers a compelling call to worship leaders: in a divided world, worship can be a healing bridge.

Drawing from John 17:20–21, Rob reminds us that Jesus prayed for unity among all believers—a unity that reflects the very relationship between the Father and the Son. That unity, Rob believes, begins with relationship: knowing your people, building trust, and leading with compassion.

From honoring genre diversity to staying grounded in God’s Word, Rob brings practical insight into how worship can foster deeper connection and spiritual growth. He encourages leaders to commit to daily time in Scripture, not only for personal renewal but to pour into others with intention and faithfulness.

This conversation also highlights the Worship Leader Institute as a vital space for worship leaders to grow, recharge, and be equipped for long-term ministry. If you’d like to learn more check out Worship Leader Institute - Acappella Ministries
