Hi, I was just mulling some things over in my head and one of those things was this question--are worship leaders called? Gifted? Talented in worship? What exactly makes them the worship "leader...

Hi all, I agree with Helena, it seems terribly disorganized and confusing! People around this area think our church sounds confusing--people can ask questions during the sermon and such. . . .but ...

Hey Dean, I've been thinking a lot about "fluff" type worship songs. . . I do enjoy Chris Tomlin's How Great is Our God--minus the line "sing with me". . . . .but anyway. . . I have just purcha...

Hi, Just wondering, (as I always have) what y'all think of that verse. . .Worship in spirit and truth. Darlene Zschech wrote in her book "Extravagant Worship", "regardless of the method, the act...

Morning Helena! I was looking at your poll today. . . .for me, it almost needs another choice or two. For me, everything should be worship--done for God's glory. . . .Darlene Zschech wrote in he...

Hello again, I could have emailed you Dean, but figured this might be handy for others at some point, considering how many different browsers we all tend to use! Is there a particular browser th...

Awesome discussion! :D When I first started "leading worship", I'd take a list to the OHP and say "here's the list, good luck". . .and leave it at that. . . .he'd scrounge to find the right over...

Hello again. . . Okay, I totally understand the concept of wanting/needing/hoping to try the shofar out before you buy. . . .but here in Quebec I don't think it's much of a possibility. I do not ...

Morning! Is the song you mean by Mark Altrogge? Cuz if it is--that's not the chorus. So then, can spontaneous or prophetic song be a chorus from an already known song? Also--what exactly is...

Dean! That's so funny! We played mostly the same brass--although I more the euphonium and trombone. . .. I had thought about joining the military as well, just so I could play! :-) Never learned...

Hey Dean, Tell me about your shofars, how'd you get into playing them? How many do you have? (and why?) What got you into shofars? and. . .lower brass eh? Tuba's?? Fill me in! ;-) B...

GREAT topic! :D At another church I was at, our worship team consisted of myself (leading and playing guitar), 2 girls (one alto, one higher harmony), my sound guy (my hubby), the overhead lady, ...

Yes, Dean, thank you. :-) I'm just now starting out in more spontaneous worship. . . .I've taken part in it before, but never been the leader of it. . . so it's quite new territory for me. I want ...

Hey Helena! I've often considered myself a teacher as a worship leader / lead worshiper, although not for the reasons you mentioned above. Your post gave me much food for thought. . . and I have t...

Hi all, Our church is very new, out of all denominational backgrounds. . . we (especially me) are getting more into prophetic song and such. What do y'all believe as far as that goes, what have ...

Hi again. . . Regarding this topic, I've been thinking much on this all week. . . I've heard some people say that some "worship" songs are just "fluff"--I can't remember if I saw it on this forum o...

I'm thinking I may enjoy this forum much more than I thought I would! :o Originally, I was going to chime in and say that at our church I'm called the "worship leader". . . .as is another couple...

Hello Helena, :D I've been looking around and checked out this post of yours. . . .I have to admit, to begin with my reaction was "what are you talking about--that's a great worship song!" The...

Hi all, I've been checking this forum out this weekend--saw the link on one of Dean's emails to the worship list I'm on and decided to see what you're all about. I've known Dean, through email (wo...
