The Art Of Leading Worship

This workbook works in conjunction with the INSTRUCTOR'S manual so don't forget to get at least one copy for either an appointed instructor or small group leader. In relation to each chapter in the book "The Art of Leading Worship" there are bullet points which outline the main points made in the book. The answers, or key points, are removed and 'blank lines' remain in their place. The Instructor's manual has all of the answers, as well does the book. Make sure you get One Instructor's manual and then One copy of the WORKBOOK for each member of your worship team. We recommend you going through one chapter at a time each time you have your team practice or meetings. This will make it fun and not too much like work. Enjoy filling them out; they are made to be written in! Keep them; re read them at a later date! Use them as a reference guide. Worship has always been at the center of God's heart. Ironically if you turn to the center of your bible you will see the book of Psalms. These are songs written over 3,000 years ago, which are still sung to this day. The styles of the music accompanying them have changed dramatically over the years but the underlying constant throughout the ages is the intent of the musician to bring a proficient, heart-felt offering through his musicianship. But how does one accomplish such an undertaking? The answers lay just ahead in the chapters that follow. Pastors and conference leaders all over the world can utilize this WORKBOOK which accompanies the in-depth instructional manual, making it available to attendees, in a way that some others have yet to fully attain. You will learn how to create dynamics, mood, the differentiating between praise and performance, harmonies, practice and practice schedules, writing out sheet music, presiding and speaking before a congregation, eye contact, preparation, flow of songs and services, how to structure them and create one continuous work of beauty, power point, body language, preparation for single church sites or multi-campus churches and so, so much more. Michael Young, a worship leader that has been leading in worship for over 29 years and skillfully plays more than a dozen different instruments, will lead you through the learning process with clear and concise points that are easy to read and fun to follow.
