Growing up in a large extended family in south Dallas, Jimmy McNeal's musical journey began singing and leading worship at the Waxahachie Miracle Revival Center, the church his grandfather pastored and the place he first met Jesus. His upbringing honored the gospel music and traditionals that his forefathers sang, and Jimmy's love of those genres grew alongside his passion for modern worship.  Today, Jimmy serves as a worship pastor and elder at the Austin Stone Church in Austin, TX, and travels around the country leading worship for various conferences and ministries. Jimmy's energy and passion for God are contagious, and he leads worship out of an overflow of this love for Jesus. Jimmy is at home in many different styles of worship music, aiming to see Jesus glorified in his voice and leading, but gospel music will always be his roots.
