Hillsong’s Reuben Morgan and Ben Fielding sit down with Loop Community’s Matt McCoy to unpack their exciting new project: CXMMXNS (pronounced ‘Commons’). They reveal the heart behind this collaborative venture aimed at creating accessible, singable songs specifically for local churches. Through the interview, Reuben and Ben discuss their approach to releasing music in digestible “chapters,” and how their own experiences leading worship in smaller congregations shaped their writing. The interview is a terrific look into the creative process, and a great reminder to be ever bold with your ideas. Emphasis, your ideas; Reuben and Ben also talk about why chasing “cool” can kill creativity. So whether you’re leading worship in a church of 50 or 5,000, let this conversation spur you on towards fulfilling all God has in store for you and your musical journey.
