Dear Worship Musician or Singer,
Congratulations on a job well done! You’ve successfully finished the Easter service (or services!) at your local church.
For many churches, Easter is like Super Bowl Sunday. It’s the big day and we want it to be excellent. Nothing wrong with that.
But sometimes it means a lot of moving parts, more demands on limited resources, and tons of pressure.
After a big project, even one that is extremely successful, it is natural to experience a let down – to feel tired, depleted, or maybe even depressed. You might be asking yourself, “Is this all there is?”
I’ve felt that way too. It is important that we tend to our hearts and care for our souls.
It’s funny how we say worship isn’t about us – that it’s all about the glory of God. But our focus doesn’t always reflect such a passion.
Worship Leaders, isn’t it easy to simply “dial it in” and get services done?
When it comes to worship leading influence, there’s a lot of things I notice in others (and myself).
Most worship leaders have a rehearsal plan.
