Director of the Worship Ministry
At only 15 years old, Colton Baker became the Worship Minister at OBC. Colton has always had a calling for Music. “The music ministry is what I grew up around. My mom and her family traveled around when I was a kid in a band called ‘The Farmers’ and that was something I grew up around and pretend to get up there and strum a guitar and sing at the age of, well at the age where I could stand I was singing. Music ministry has always been a part of my life.” “I became the assistance music director about 2 years ago, and this summer I took on the role of the full time Worship Minister here at Oscar Baptist and had not looked back since.” Colton has taught himself how to play guitar, started a year ago and has recently learned how to play the piano, which we get to hear this gift that the LORD has blessed Baker with, during worship services. “My plan is to get a full worship band/team started, right now we are working on getting the singers and the musicians, so in the next few months we should be there. My overall goal and plan is to see the Holy Spirit led souls to the LORD.” “Worship is not about making it about yourself, that is the biggest temptation as a worship leader is going up there and being an all-star and have the spot light on you; but that is not what you are trying to do as a worship leader, it is leading souls to the LORD through song.” |
