My wife has taught me many things.

What makes someone a superstitious worship leader? Might you be one?

I’m not always aware of it when it happens. But something happens when the service officially starts: Something sneaks up on you and bites you on the behind.

“Good morning, (CHURCH NAME)! We’re glad you’re here. It’s a beautiful day to worship the LORD. Would you stand and sing with us?”

I was rehearsing the team and we were deciding how to arrange a song.

One of your lids as a worship leader may be leading the same room over and over.

They didn’t know what was coming. In their wildest dreams, what was about to occur was 100% impossible.

Twenty-four hours ago, I was leading worship. How did it go? 

How do I know the answer?

Lead worship solo for a group of complete strangers. Don’t give them lyrics.

Raise your hand if (almost) every time you’re leading Build My Life…

“Next month, we’re going to audition everyone that’s on the team, and not everyone is going to make it.”

You know how a different translation of scripture can bring a whole new meaning to light?

It’s not ok with me that the whole church doesn’t worship. He is constantly worthy.

There was a famous golfer who was visiting the king of a country. The king wanted to give him a gift, so he asked him what he liked.

Plastered on most tithe envelopes (if such things still exist) lives a little hint: “God loves a cheerful giver.” Have you seen it?

On a long enough timeline, all of us feel like temporary fakes. Sometimes the feeling lingers.

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.

Crema and Milo, my two street mutts, are lovely creatures. Except when they dig holes. Their habit makes me consider astroturfing the yard. I’m not even kidding.

I know. If you’re a Producer Fader, you’re either rolling your eyes at a subject like “Planning Feels Great,” or you’re disappointed because I’m not stronger in my call to action.

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