Worship & Creative Leaders

Let me get right to the point: the enemy wants to hinder your worship of God this weekend, so he will work to distract and deceive you.

Many friends of mine serve their churches as worship leaders, some perhaps in the face of weekly criticism and complaints—I am eternally thankful for you. I love you.

Talk about your worship song intros together until you feel like the band understands what you are after.

If those of us who lead worship want congregants to be participators rather than spectators, then we must facilitate worship not just depending on our own strengths and abilities.

Praise the LORD is the Hebrew word Hallelujah. Hallel means praise, worship, magnify. U means “us” or “we.” Jah is a common abbreviation for the name “Yahweh.”

Pick a church, attend Lord’s Day worship, and more than likely you will discover that authentic Christian worship is in real trouble.

The process of Lectio Divina begins with, you guessed it, reading. To pray while reading the Scriptures, we need to read Scripture! The central premise of reading the Bible in this context is to not go too fast or too slow.

Worship, particularly worship through song, helps to bridge our emotions with our knowledge; our hearts with our heads.
