214 - Navigating Music and Ministry as Influencers in Multi-Ethnic and Multicultural Spaces with Montell and Kristin Jordan

By Be the Bridge

If you’ve heard the party anthem “This Is How We Do It” then you know something about the popular artist, singer, songwriter, and producer Montell Jordan. But what you may not know is that after leaving the music industry, he became the Praise and Worship Pastor at one of the most diverse churches not just in the state of Georgia but in the country: Victory World Church. His most recent ministry venture in partnership with his manager and wife of 26 years, Kristin, is a couples’ ministry called Marriage Masterpeace. Together, the power couple hosts and speaks at conferences encouraging marital harmony through biblical principles. Be the Bridge founder Latasha Morrison talks with the Jordans about navigating all of these spaces together and the impact of injustice on their roles in ministry.

Quotes:

“Praise is what we do because of what He’s done. But worship is because of what He does and who He is.” - Kristin Jordan

“When we lost ourselves, God was able to find us through marriage. It was in the safety of marriage that we were both able to be put back together again.” - Montell Jordan

“Our messes become our ministry. We take the places where we were broken, where we were a mess, and where God was gracious enough to see us through—and try and help people walk through things that they feel like they can’t. And the idea is that we’re hope on the other side of the mountain.” - Kristin Jordan

“I get an opportunity to minister in my shows, saying that “Get It On Tonite” was about adultery, but God saved me from that. “Let’s Ride” was about fornication, but God saved me from that. And so I use those negative musical moments that are attached to people’s lives to tell the story of God’s redemption.” - Montell Jordan
