Accolades for Arlen's Ministry“If worship is the high and holy art of spiritual architecture, Arlen Salte is one of our greatest living architects. His designs for living habitations of the divine are masterpieces of soulspace-–sound homes in which the soul can breathe and mature, sight blueprints that honor the past while snatching the future.” Dr.Leonard Sweet, Author Drew Theological School and George Fox University "Arlen Salte is one of the most creative and cutting edge Christian leaders around today. He has an accurate pulse on what the church needs, and an intuitive way of understanding the move of God that is pouring new wine in new wine skins. Arlen is a masterful communicator one on one, and to large groups. He has an international grasp on what God is doing to help the church experience a fresh renewal. His musical abilities are in a class of the top 5% Christian artists in the world. His passion for the Great Commission sets him apart from most of the rest." Dr. Kent R. Hunter - Author, Radio Host: Church Doctor Ministries “Arlen Salte is a very gifted and sensitive worship leader. His ministry has had a profound impact on my life.” Tom Kraeuter, Author of Keys to Becoming an Effective Worship Leader and The Worship Leader's Handbook. "For leaders looking to renew, enhance, or recreate the worship life of their congregation, I highly recommend tuning into Arlen Salte. Arlen has his pulse on what God is up to today in worship and at the same time he has a feel for where culture is moving. That combination makes his worship seminars among the best in North America. Best of all, Arlen embraces a graced-based Gospel, which makes his approach to worship all the more appealing." Rev. Tim Wright - Pastor and Author, Community Church Of Joy, Glendale, Arizona "I've been blessed by Arlen's "down to earth" passion for The Lord. He carries a sincere burden to see people experience the presence of God. I've seen this demonstrated in his worship leading style and in his teaching. A real professional with a servant's heart." Paul Baloche - Integrity and Maranatha Recording Artist "Arlen Salte is equipping churches to answer an emphatic 'yes' to the questions post-Christian culture is asking. Most importantly, he knows and honors the Church's worship story: two thousand years of celebrating, adoring, and responding to the Person of God the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Yet, as the top selling Canadian Christian recording artist in history, Arlen also knows that is not a message until it is communicated in a language people can understand. Consequently, Arlen has traveled the world, introducing irreligious people to the Savior through contemporary music and worship. Celebrations with substance...Father, Son, and Holy Spirit...but celebrations in a brave new container. As we enter the next thousand years, it is not enough to have leaders who understand the past. It is not enough to have leaders who understand the present. We need leaders who understand both and are able to flesh out that understanding in practical, effective ministry. Arlen Salte is one of the few who fits that description." Sally Morgenthaler - President, Worship Evangelism Concepts Author, Worship Evangelism, Zondervan, Columnist, Worship Leader Magazine "Arlen Salte was the main performer in the national Youth Gospel Celebration of Lempaala Congregation and his performance with Finnish musicians was a clear huighlight in our celebration. He also appeared to be a very charismatic speaker, a real messenger of God, who obviously has the lived the Gospel true in his life." Rev. Mikko Oikarinen - Lutheran Church of Finland, Lempaala Parish "It's rare to find an artist whose work accurately reflects his faith and life. Arlen showed that he is a man of integrity on this count. I'm sure that his ministry is going to bless and refresh many towards a faith that is strong an mature." Roy Salmond - Top 40 hit Songwriter, Producer of Dove & Juno nominated artists, Whitewater Productions "I have had correspondence with several young people from the convention whose lives were deeply touched by your message. You truly have unique gifts and talents that are being multiplied in their effects through the work of the Spirit." Brian Bosscher - Executive Director, YCF, Director, International Convention, Grand Rapids, Michigan "Arlen is definitely one of the best kept secrets to come our way in a long time. Not only is he a good musician but a great Christian communicator as well. He truly loves the Lord." Gerry Scott - President, Word Records Limited "These youth were a part of a crowd of 17,000 youth and adults from all parts of the United States and other countries who gathered together in Denver for this event. Mr. Salte (was) in charge of music for the opening sessions, worship and various concerts throughout the five-day gathering. I have worked with many musicians, and Christian speakers during my thirteen years as a DCE, however, I have never worked with such a talented and dedicated Christian musician and speaker as Arlen Salte. Arlen lives his music and message. He is not one who plays or speaks for the money; his commitment is that young people know that they are special to God and their Savior, and that they make a stand in this world of secularism and materialism." Jim McConnell -Director of Christian Education Our Savior Lutheran Church, Raleigh, North Carolina "Arlen has that rare ability to articulate a message through succinct use of words and music that is rare in the contemporary Christian culture. We have hosted some of the biggest names in Christian music on our campus. Others may have larger production budgets, but no one is better at engaging the people in music. Those who invite Arlen to their campus will not be disappointed." Stephen Hower, Director of Ministries - St. John's Lutheran Church, Ellisville, Mo.
