Worship Leader Wows with 'Goodness of God' Rendition on American Idol

A worship leader wowed with a rendition of “Goodness of God” on American Idol. The young man demonstrated his considerable musical gifts and talents with a beautiful performance of the praise and worship song that is near and dear to the hearts of many. Watch the short but jaw-dropping clip to see and hear the worship leader, 27-year-old Jordan McCullough, perform “Goodness of God.”

Many people believe they have what it takes to succeed and even win the top spot on America’s Got Talent, The Voice and American Idol. Having confidence in oneself and abilities is a good thing, but the fact remains that many more people will try out for those programs than win them. Hundreds, possibly even thousands, audition every year, but there is still only ever one winner.

Judges, while they may not enjoy doing it, have to decide who makes the cut and who goes home. They say who gets on the show and who does not meet the standard, using their decades of combined experience in the music and entertainment business to guide their decisions. That’s precisely what the judges – Carrie Underwood, Lionel Richie and Luke Bryan – do on American Idol. They are tasked with making those tough choices.

However, moments after one young man began singing, it was clear he would be sent through to the next week on American Idol. Jordan, a worship leader, sang the beloved favorite “Goodness of God,” and it was terrific. His voice and entire performance were angelic, a heavenly voice, for sure. You could listen to this young man sing anything.

He had the judges completely and utterly captivated. All three had massive smiles. Additionally, Carrie Underwood was mouthing the iconic tune right along with Jordan. Lionel was clearly blown away by the worship, saying “wow” to himself several times during the audition.  

Jordan is definitely something to remember and keep an eye on as the competition progresses.
