Worship Leading Lesson #1: It’s Not Your MinistrySome of the best lessons I’ve learned in life are through trying, failing, trying, failing, failing, trying and succeeding every once in awhile. I’m not foolish enough to think I’ve got it all figured out, but I do have some things that I hope can be an encouragement to anyone willing to read. These are a few random worship leading...

Worship Star by Shekelback – a light-hearted look at the Worship Music Industry
A word from the creator of this video: This cheeky comedy version of a well known secular rock track is intended to make you smile, rather than get on your soap box! If you know the original song, it is a cartoon parody of the ‘rock star’ lifestyle through the eyes of a wannabe -- this is takes that idea and applies it to the worship... [Read more of this review]

Choosing Worship Songs: Style
All right, now here’s a topic that can get many a worship leader in trouble with their congregation. Choosing a style to present the music is a hot topic in and of itself. Rock, Reggae, Classical, R&B, Gospel, Country or traditional. These are just a few of the styles one can choose from when leading their church in worship. In... [Read more of this review]

As I’ve had time to ponder some of the themes that we encountered during the week, there seemed to be a recurring message that popped up in several places, and I’ve even encountered it in new places since the retreat....
