Had an amazing lunch yesterday with worship leader Aaron Keyes. Such an incredible guy. So authentic. In fact, I have to admit something. I asked Aaron to lead worship on the Friday of Catalyst west... yet I have never actually seen him lead worship. Okay, one time. Acoustic, by himself, for about 20 of us at the Catalyst offices last October. But I missed his set at Catalyst east. I only know his heart. I'd put that on-stage in front of 3,000 sold-out seats any day.
Thanks for the recommendation. Just downloaded both CDs, and think I'm really going to enjoy them.

Ben,
His set at Catalyst east this past year was by far the highlight of my Catalyst experience. Incredible talent and his passion for God and his humility just flows out as he leads.

As I think I've mentioned before on your blog, Aaron use to lead worship at my alma mater on occasion (years ago). He was, by far, my favorite worship leader -- for the very reasons you mentioned in this post.
