Core Session: Worship Leadership

Friday January 24, 2025 2:00pm - 4:00pm EST

SBCC102

What is the real role of a worship leader? Learning how to lead worship from YouTube, other media or even some popular Christian artists can drastically hurt the effectiveness of your worship ministry. We will dive into the biblical understanding of worship and the role of a worship leader. Once we get that right, it will inform everything we do in worship--the songs we select, the keys we sing them in, the level of lighting and sound in the room, how often we repeat songs throughout the year, how we lead physically, and so much more. This will be a crash introduction to principles that may radically change your worship ministry. (Parts of the breakout session, 9 Reasons People Aren't Singing in Worship will be included in this session.)
