Worship Leader Intensive
Are You On The Sunday Treadmill?

As a worship ministry leader, you have the difficult job of leading a worship team and leading on Sunday. Those two responsibilities are related, but if you’ve been a worship leader for very long, you know they’re very different. Too often, the high demands of Sunday don’t leave with enough time to grow leaders, develop team members, or build for the long-term growth of your worship ministry.

In other words, you’re stuck in the ‘Sunday-after-Sunday treadmill.’

Now, take a moment to think about attracted you to worship ministry in the first place. It might be any number of things…
  • A love for worshiping through music
  • Training and mentoring musicians
  • Connecting and building relationships with team members
  • Planning special worship events
  • Writing/recording music

The Sunday-after- Sunday treadmill probably keeps you from doing much of what you love. And at first, it was OK. You loved planning, preparing, and leading on Sundays. But now, it might feel a little like a grind.
And not only that, but your once-vibrant, worshipful relationship with God might even feel like it’s just part of the job. Now, you might not be there, but you know other worship leaders who are. And you can see the potential to fall into that. So what’s the answer?

You need to learn and implement The Framework.

At WorshipTeamCoach, we teach a three-part framework that helps you grow leaders, equip your team members, and engage your church each week in a meaningful journey of worship.

And when you attend the CMS Worship Leader’s Intensive, on Thursday, October 31, you’ll not only learn The Framework, but you’ll create a plan to implement it into your worship ministry. I’m going to help you use this Framework to transform your worship ministry into what you know it can become.

Whether you’re full-time, part-time, or a volunteer leader, this Worship Leader’s Intensive will help you determine your next steps to build a stronger, healthier team, and still meet the high demands of Sunday.

I’m excited to spend the day with you and explore how to grow your worship ministry. Why?

I got to a place several years ago where Sunday church ministry was a grind. But I learned how to reshape my ministry so it no longer all depended on me to plan, prepare and lead our weekend services. And eventually, I was able to raise up a young leader to take my place and lead the ministry forward, so I could focus full-time on helping other churches.

So, I can’t wait to dig into your unique ministry and discover how the Framework can help you.
Don’t stay stuck in that Sunday after Sunday treadmill.

And don’t let your uncommitted or apathetic volunteers keep you from developing a healthy team culture.
And don’t let your potential leaders stay stuck with no one ever challenging them to lead, mentor, and influence others on the team.

Bringing Unity with an Agreed, Measurable Goal
The “worship leader” wants the congrega.on to experience God’s presence like he does. The drummer just wants to play drums. The musical director wants no mistakes. The backing singer wants to get to that transcendent state that she iden.fies as “worship”. The audio engineer wants the best, concertlike listening experience possible. We all want God to be worshiped, but in reality, each team member might be pushing for their own goal. But what if we had one, agreed, measurable, unifying goal?
