  • S3- Episode 04 - Mussie Fisseha

    Our guest for this episode is singer and song writer Mussie Fisseha. In this conversation, you will hear Mussie's passion for not only his music ministry but his deep convictions that made him who he is today. As a worship pastor in his local church, Mussie talks about the benefit of being rooted in a local church and why we need to invest in cultivating small connections in our churches. This is more than an album discussion although we also loved his new album Addis Fitret. I am confident you will find it encouraging and engaging.
