Performer to Pastor with Wade Joye

Wade Joye is a preacher and ministry coach, and currently hosts Dreamers & Disciples, a weekly podcast on the AccessMore Network. He recently released an online course for worship leaders, Performer To Pastor.

Wade served as the Worship Pastor at Elevation Church for over 14 years until transitioning off of staff in late 2021 to serve churches across the country through his teaching and coaching ministry.

During his time at Elevation, Wade oversaw the development of worship culture and staffing for over 20 locations, and spearheaded the growth and pastoring of Elevation Worship. In addition to building worship culture across all Elevation locations, Wade was instrumental in creating the systems that allowed Elevation Worship songs to go around the world as he led the record label and touring teams.

Wade was also a songwriter on several of the earlier Elevation Worship songs, being part of the writing team for songs like “O Come To The Altar,” “Resurrecting” and many more sung in churches all over the country. Serving on the overall leadership team at Elevation, Wade also led the teams that executed the weekend worship experience, and oversaw service programming and coached campus pastors on their stage hosting and preaching.

Having preached on the main stage at Elevation on a regular basis, Wade's greatest passion is to teach and coach people to develop and maintain consistent spiritual rhythms and disciplines that cultivate a heart that is grounded in a personal devotion to Jesus.
