        <![CDATA[<p>Volunteer Friendly is a From Studio to Stage show for worship leaders, production directors and anyone involved in making Sunday services happen. Hosted by Will Doggett, each week you're presented with a question or thought meant to provoke contemplation, and encourage discussion with your team.
