What happens when you take your worship leadership beyond the walls of your church and into the nations?

In this episode of the Prophetic Worship Podcast, Ali McFarlane and Emma Stark share raw stories from leading worship in Canada, the Netherlands, America, Northern Ireland, and beyond.

You’ll hear:

• Why some nations resist deep, glory-level intimacy with God

• The difference between “hovering” presence and “enthroned” presence

• How culture shapes the way people engage with worship

• The challenges (and joys) of carrying your anointing into unfamiliar spaces

• Why worship leaders must be relationally gifted to survive in the nations

This is for every worship leader, pastor, or believer who has the nations written on their heart. You’ll walk away provoked, encouraged, and challenged to go deeper with God—and to lead others into the fullness of His presence, wherever you are.

What if your worship isn’t just for you—but for the deliverance of nations?

In this powerful episode of The Prophetic Worship Podcast, Ali McFarlane and Louise Reid return to explore how worship is not just an emotional experience, but a strategic spiritual act that shifts atmospheres and breaks chains.

They discuss:

• Why men are needed in the sound of breakthrough

• The militarized and synchronized sound of worship

• Biblical strategy behind gathered song (Paul & Silas, Jericho, Jehoshaphat)

• Why emotion alone isn’t enough—worship is obedience and weaponry

• How praise can set captives free, even the unsaved

This is a prophetic call for wild, warrior worshippers—especially men—to take their place in releasing heaven’s sound.

In this thought-provoking episode, Ali McFarlane is joined by Louise Reid to ask a bold question: Where are the men in worship? Together, they explore why modern church worship has become so female-led, how cultural and emotional barriers have silenced men in worship, and what it looks like to recover the masculine expression of praise.

From King David’s undignified worship to today’s emotionally disconnected men, Ali and Louise dive into biblical models, cultural pressures, and practical tips to invite men back into full-bodied, Spirit-led worship. Whether you’re a worship leader, pastor, or part of the congregation, this episode will equip you to shepherd both men and women into deeper encounter.

They cover:

• How to recognize and confront the emotional shutdown in men

• Why worship must include masculine strength and vulnerability

• Practical ways worship leaders can call men into expression without pressure

• Restoring the sound of men singing together in church
