Brooke Ligertwood is a Grammy-award winning songwriter, producer, and worship leader.
With a passion for truth, art, humanity and the church, Brooke has served the global church through song, leadership and creativity through her many years as part of Hillsong Worship, which she leads globally, whilst also enjoying a successful mainstream career of almost two decades under her maiden name (Brooke Fraser).
She passionately asserts that all of life, for the follower of Christ, is ministry. She and her husband Scott (also a songwriter) along with their two young daughters, are based in Orange County, California.
Brooke is obsessive about the marriage of theology and art, and as such has penned a growing anthology of beloved congregational anthems like “What A Beautiful Name,” “King of Kings,” “Hosanna” and “Man of Sorrows” as well as devotional favorites like “Awake My Soul,” “New Wine,” “None But Jesus” and many more.

“You see, at just the right time, when we were still powerless, Christ died for the ungodly. Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous person, though for a good person someone might possibly dare to die. But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Since we have now been justified by his blood, how much more shall we be saved from God’s wrath through him! For if, while we were God’s enemies, we were reconciled to him through the death of his Son, how much more, having been reconciled, shall we be saved through his life!”

“Faith, in general, is less about the sacrifice of stuff and more about the surrender of our souls. Lent, in kind, is less about well-mannered denials and more about thinning our lives in order to thicken our communion with God. Decrease is holy only when its destination is love.” - Alicia Britt Chloe (from “40 Days of Decrease: A Different Kind of Hunger, A Different Kind of Fast”)

“I came to the end of my own hope, O God, and found that your hope held me still.”
From A Liturgy of Thanksgiving at the Return of Joy by Douglas McKelvey, found in Every Moment Holy, Volume II: Death, Grief, and Hope.”
Grateful for modern liturgy resources like “Every Moment Holy” - this one particularly blessed me this week. (Would it be helpful to anyone for me to post some of my favorite structured prayer guides one day?)

Today is WORLD WATER DAY 💧
• 703 million people lack access to clean water (1 in 11 people worldwide)
• Women and girls around the world spend an estimated 250 million hours carrying water every day, walking an average of 3.5 miles per day to haul 44 pounds of water
• More than 1,000 children under 5 die every day from diseases related to lack of clean water, sanitation, and hygiene
The water crisis is an issue that is actually solvable in our lifetime (!) and there are many organisations doing fantastic work toward this end.
I’ve been blessed to be privy to the work of @charitywater for a long time now and have seen the impact with my own eyes (this pic from a Charity Water project in beautiful Ethiopia in 2012). If you’re moved to learn more or contribute, head to Charitywater.org/brooke

“Because of and through the heart of tender mercy and loving-kindness of our God, a Light from on high will dawn upon us and visit [us] [Mal. 4:2.] To shine upon and give light to those who sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, to direct and guide our feet in a straight line into the way of peace. [Isa. 9:2.]”
