Jesse is a popular conference Speaker & Worship Leader who has the innate ability to take a group of strangers and within minutes make it feel like one big family reunion.

He brings a freshness and vulnerability to everything he does.” Joy Williams Recording Artist, The Civil Wars "You can’t just hear Jesse Butterworth sing or play guitar. You have to watch the ways the creativity of the Holy Spirit breaks out of him.  He's bigger on the inside than the outside." Dr. M. Craig Barnes President, Princeton Theological Seminary "It doesn't seem to matter which outlet Jesse uses to express himself -- authoring books, film shorts, songwriting, live performance, public speaking, etc -- he never ceases to impress me.  I've seen him take the necessary risks to leave a lasting impact on his audience in every medium he lays his hands to.  He's a true creative soul.”  Gabriel Wilson Writer/Producer, Bethel Music, Kari Jobe, The Violet Burning “On par with Chris Tomlin, Lincoln Brewster, Tim Hughes, Matt Redman, and NeedToBreathe. Jesse handles modern worship with as much skill and craft as the best in Christian music.” Christianity Today
