Worship Podcast
You know the cliches. You read the books. You bought the T-shirt.
But how does that translate into worship leading? How do you move from merely singing a setlist to leading in worship?
Dear exhausted worship leader,
Who is struggling to keep your head above water…
Who is rarely appreciated for what you do…
Breathe.
Believe you stand as a child of the King.
You are accepted, loved, forgiven, and perfect.
If you failed every day for the rest of your life, you would be a success because God has chosen you.
Think about the first time you stood in front of a congregation to lead worship.
Or, maybe your time to lead is coming soon.
It’s the plague of anyone who performs – you get nervous.
But you don’t need to be paralyzed by fear. With a few simple tricks, you can overcome it and begin to lead with a boldness you never knew you had.
As we talked about earlier, effective worship pastors build teams.
They make disciples.
But anyone who’s ever done this knows it’s far from easy. No one enjoys confrontation.
But if you’re serious about making disciples, you need to have difficult conversations.
It’s a truth we can’t afford to neglect.
The more public your ministry, the more prone you are to fall.
The greater success you experience, the greater your tendency to sabotage what matters.
The hymn writer captured it with brilliance: “Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it. Prone to leave the God I love.”
It’s ironic, isn’t it?
