Mr don Moen how can I play chord s in piano during worship songs, I'm Adam from Tanzania..

[thenewbieguitarmaker]

Question?? What can I do with a person that does:
Does not respect my authority as leaders and pastor
Complain about all the songs except if she or he like the song.
Have a negative demeanor with the other members of the group.
Does not want to be ready, this has the binder with the songs or make notes.
Is full of pride.
and others,
In general, make the practice and Sunday morning worship heavy and difficult.

I do not when the person out of the team because is very skillful, And I praying for a change of attitude but until that happens I can not have that person on the team.

With all that the pastor want that person on the team.

What can I do?

Brother Don I am from Nepal, I would like to ask a question that can we use word in worship entertainment for praise and worship? Because some people they use the word entertainment instead of praises.

[reggiebenson]

Oh, don't mean to be a real downer here, but I suspect I am. Praise teams are wrong, just wrong. They are composed of kids that are there to gather all of the praise to themselves. They are not thinking of God, but they put the focus on themselves. How do I know this - couple of clues. Praise team members do not change, there is no constant recruiting to see if perhaps someone from the congregation might want to participate in this ministry. Point #2: Praise team members are in the building only for their song, then they leave, only to show back up for the closing song. #3: They sing to overwhelm the congregation singing, making sure their voice is front and center. They attempt to sing the song professionally, with all of the variations a professional might use, leaving a lot of the congregation scratching their heads.

Much better if you let one person lead the singing so it can return to what this is supposed to be - a congregational singing and praise time.

Being in the disguise of don morn try something else to please the ones who. You are supporting and leave me alone .this is not working you and your heartless team.
