Another thing: stop referring to worship as only the music portion of the service, when worship is a lifestyle of obedience.

#8: Stop focusing on entertainment and more on engagement with God.

Add a number 8, our worship experience is not about making the worship like a rock or rap concert. It’s not a talent show, but an invitation to enter God’s presence.

Every worship leader in every church needs to see this and take notes

My husband said, “I didn’t realize worship was an American Idol event.”

I like your part about LEAD them to worship and NOT demand them to worship

I'm 71 years of age and am still leading praise/worship at my church. I have always refused to sing anything that is Biblically and theologically unsound. I also learned years ago it's not about me, but God first, and what genre most of the congregants enjoy, in that order. I can honestly say that I always spend time in prayer prior to sending the "set list" to my team. Thank you so much for sharing.

[toddgermick]

Wow! Last week I felt in my heart that I just wasn't leading worship correctly in my church. So I started a Bible study on it, and some of these points came up. Thank you for confirming what God was telling me. I take being a worship seriously and want to do it correctly spiritually and not worldly. God bless brother. I look forward to more good stuff coming from you!

"A congregation learns its theology not just by the preaching they hear, but by the songs they sing." - John Piper

[jennyhansford]

I absolutely love “What a beautiful Name” and the first time I sang it I was blown away by the words, “You didn’t want heaven without me, so Jesus You brought heaven down.” I didn’t even think that meant He was lonely without me, to me it meant that Jesus so longs for me to be in heaven that He came down to make it possible in the most amazing way! God doesn’t wish that anyone should perish! 2 Peter 3:9

#4 #4 #4!! Yes please stop coercing people to stand up, yell etc. People worship differently and sometimes people just want to silently be in His presence

[magicmakerify]

I always say “church is a place of worship not performance” esp during choir practices

[kevindavis]

Here's a kicker Don't just sing songs live it.

[jennygracefully]

I was spending time with God this morning and asking him whether I should join the worship team at my Young Life group, and I think the Holy Spirit led me to this video to recognize the responsibility of being a worship leader and how humbling and rewarding it is to lead people to Jesus. Thank you for this video, I think my prayer has been answered!

[shawnglass]

Man, those old hymns we used to sing from the 18th and 19th century were so good! So full of deep accurate Biblical theology and so beautiful..That’s the kind of music we need our Christian artists to be writing.

[Wimplo]

As much as I like modern worship songs, sometimes I wish good-ol' hymns would make a comeback

[notallaboutmeministry]

You do not need someone from seminary. We need someone that has the Holy Spirit that reads their Bible

[lnpukqj]

Yes, commanding people to worship in a certain way is so annoying! 🙃

[loucadenysschen]

100% true, great video. Worship is not singing a song, its putting all your attention and adoration on the Most High God, He deserves everything that we can give.

[kieronbygravetv]

Thank you so much for this. As a worship leader, I’ve been guilty of many of these points. And we can only become better by humbling ourselves and learning. So thank you so much!!
