In this episode, we dive into the world of Divisional Music and Arts (DMAs)—monthly gatherings where young people come together to rehearse, fellowship, and grow in their faith. Joined by Kyle McElroy (DMD for the ALM Division) and Matt Broome (DMD for the Texas Division), we explore what DMAs are, who can be involved, and how they prepare kids and teens not only for concerts and youth councils but also for a lifetime of ministry. Discover how these rehearsals go beyond music, building community, shaping discipleship, and giving young people a safe place to use their gifts for God.

In this episode, we take a closer look at Jesus Theater—a powerful creative arts program that uses drama, music, and movement to share the gospel with children and adults alike. We’re joined by Skye Bussey, Assistant Divisional Music Director from the Georgia Division, who shares the history of Jesus Theater, her personal journey with the program, and stories of its life-changing impact. Together, we explore why storytelling and creative expression are such effective tools for ministry, and how corps, divisions, and local leaders can bring Jesus Theater to their own communities.
