Former Third Day frontman Mac Powell is taking on a new position with a global ministry team.

Powell will join Leading The Way (LTW) with Dr. Youssef, a ministry dedicated to sharing the truth of God, as an "artist in residence" based at the Church of the Apostles in Atlanta, Georgia.

LTW began in 1988 as a small radio ministry in Atlanta. Now, LTW broadcasts programs in 26 languages across six continents and has asked Powell to come aboard in their 33rd year of ministry.

"Mac has been blessed by God with great musical talent and a voice like no other," says Dr. Michael Youssef, LTW founder and president.

"I am thrilled he's chosen to join our team and am sure God will use him mightily as we minister together around the globe."

The musician will also tour alongside Youssef, as he shares the word of God with audiences around the world. 

Live LTW evangelism events are scheduled for Youssef and Powell as soon as early October in Massachusetts and Sydney, Australia.

Powell, a Gospel Music Award and Grammy winner, says he is looking forward to serving as part of the LTW team.

"I've seen from afar the great ministry Dr. Youssef has had around the world, so to be able to be part of that - I'm really excited," Powell says.
