Sometimes lighting a fire feels like lighting you’re using soaking-wet wood. It’s impossible despite your best efforts. Other times, the gas-lit fire practically jumps on you.

I was speaking with a church that has been without a staff worship leader for nearly a year.

Leadership is creational, meaning you create who you are and replicate what’s inside you.

Who Are You Chasing? New pedals?
Bethel’s vibe? Happiness? A bigger worship team?

Do I have what it takes?

Some worship leader - senior pastor relationships are fantastic!

My family and I are making a big decision about where to live. We had an unexpected (yet long-prayed-for) opportunity that came upon us suddenly last Friday.

Does your church have non-leaders leading, non-singers singing, non-musicians playing, non-communicators communicating, etc.? Many churches live in this uncomfortable reality.

I asked my worship leader friend what his job was. He replied something like, “I just have to make sure there’s worship when we need it.”

I’ve been looking at lots of worship leader job descriptions lately as we help several churches look for staff. Almost all of them have some kitchen-junk-drawer statement at the end of the responsibilities

I spoke with yet another pastor who is looking for a worship leader. This one was lost to burnout.

I ask myself “Where are the other leaders at the church?”

How can you know if it’s time to form a leadership team for your worship ministry?

Every leader disciple needs to learn how to work with people.

Do you want current members to serve for a long time?

Do you wish that rehearsal would go deeper than just pulling the music together?
