“Your band is only as good as your drummer.” – Awesome Person
I don’t know whose lips first dawned that quote, but it couldn’t be more true.
Drummers are captains. They steer the ship wherever their skill and personality will take it. If your drummer sucks, good luck trying to find any traction in worship.
I’ve met and played with a lot of talented worship team musicians.
But in all my interactions, there’s a foundational skill that most of them overlook.
If they would only focus their attention on developing this skill, they could be unstoppable.
Most worship leaders I talk to are dissatisfied with their teams.
This is what I hear:
This isn’t necessarily a people problem. It’s a culture problem. For your team to rise to the next level, you need to take responsibility for the culture.
We all have our favorite songs – songs we sing over and over.
Songs that ignite a room.
Songs that make you cry, shout, rejoice, and sing at the top of your lungs.
I’ve realized something recently. Leadership is hard.
Not only is it hard, but it’s probably the most difficult responsibility on the face of the earth.
Why? Because you are not simply responsible for your own skill and craft. You are responsible to mobilize others to accomplish goals and become all they can be.
