Hello, I am Blaine Maloney and I am the Praise and Worship Leader at New Life Church. I was born and raised on Long Island, NY (Go Yankees) and moved to Greenville, SC six years ago. I have been into music and the arts since I was a small child and have been in multiple choirs/vocal ensembles, bands and drama teams, with whom I have competed nationally with. I was also apart of a traveling drama team for a year of where I ministered regularly around the South East, and traveled to North Dakota. May 2009 I graduated from Clemson University with a Bachelors of Science in Secondary Education—History. God and Music are by far my two passions in life, and am completely honored that I can combine my talent and passion for music to express my love and compassion for God—I can think of no other thing in the world that I would rather do, than play music for the Lord.
I have high hopes and expectations for the worship team. Worship is not just playing music unto God. The essence of worship is a lifestyle of submission unto God. On the music side of leading worship at New Life, I see God breaking peoples chains and growing them closer to Him through our music. I see us writing out own praise and worship music of all different styles to reach people of every type background. I see us growing our Worship Arts Team beyond what is seen on Sunday morning and venturing into every aspect of the arts: from poetry, sculpting, painting, design, music, production, drama, acting, dancing, or any other type of art form that can be used to bring glory unto God. I see us growing as a Worship Arts Team and congregation to live true lives in surrender and worship unto God. Above all else, I want to see us be real with each other in our worship and lifestyle, as we develop true community, accountability, and dependability on each other and emulate the early church, and reach back to our Pentecostal and true Christian roots.
