Meet Megan Clark

Since 2000, I have had the privilege of calling Faith Bible Church “home.” As a kid, Sundays were a time to explore the halls, wreak havoc in Sunday school, and proudly sit with my family in the second row in “big church.” My favorite part was watching the band and singers worship the Lord, joining my own small voice with the rest of the congregation. Ever since I can remember, music and singing have been ways I connect and express myself, so it makes sense that I was drawn into worship through music. As a little girl, my deepest desire was to one day be given the opportunity to lead others in worshipping the Lord through music. As I grew, the world around me remained the same in many ways, even as my understanding expanded and deepened through the inevitable experiences which come with growing up. In high school I had opportunities to sing in different ministry events, helping lead worship in youth group, but always found myself questioning my motives. One of the biggest questions I wrestled with was if God would use me in worship ministry if there was any hint of pride in me. After a while, I decided the Lord was telling me to set aside my pursuit of leading in church ministry and focused instead on musical theatre. Fastforward about 12 years, to a particularly challenging time in my life. 2022 was a year of letting go and uprooting of things God did not intend to remain in my life. Near the end of the year, I had reached out to Jamey to see about getting involved in serving on the worship team and he invited me to sing for the first time in January 2023. It wasn’t until a year and a half later the Lord revealed to me how, in His kindness and mercy, He restored the dream of a little girl even as He removed the harmful desires born out of a broken heart. In the process, He worked a greater healing in me that I never would have dreamed was possible. Although brokenness would not have been the path I would have chosen for myself, it has taught me to rely wholly upon the Lord’s grace to preserve and strengthen me, for in my weakness His strength is made perfect (2 Cor. 12:9).
