I Love to help worship leaders and worship pastors grow and become all that God has called them to be. I hope these 12 keys challenge you like they challenge me. I have been leading worship and pastoring for over 30 years but I still go back to this list to see what I need to work on!
1. Love and Spend Time with God Daily > Are you reading your Bible daily? > Where is your secret place to meet with God? > How is your daily prayer life? Are you praying and Obeying? 2. Love Your Spouse and Family > Are you carving out regular time in your schedule for your spouse and family? > Are you taking one day off per week? > When is the last time you had a date with your spouse? 3. Love the Church like Jesus love the Church > Are you building God's Kingdom or yours? > Do you love the people you are leading? > Jesus laid down His life for us, are you willing to lay down yours? 4. Mentor the Next Generation of Leaders > Are you looking for and developing the potential leaders on your team? > Are you giving room for new leaders to lead a song or worship time? > Jesus spent over 3 years developing His team, are you following His example? 5. Develop a Good Relationship with your Pastor > Do you have a weekly or bi-weekly meeting with your pastor? > Are you supporting your pastor in private and public? > Have you ever had your pastor and his wife over for dinner? 6. Keep your Heart Soft and Pliable Before God > Have you learned to forgive and forgive again? > Do you have good friends who can speak into your life? > Do you have safeguards to keep you from falling into temptation? 7. Never Stop Growing > Are you practicing your singing and playing on a daily basis? > Are you taking lessons and improving your craft and leadership? > Are you changing and growing with the new trends, style and songs? 8. Be a Passionate Worshiper > Are you keeping it real? Be authentic, are you the same on and off the stage? > Are there areas in your life that are holding you back from God's richest blessings? > Do you love the Lord with all your heart and are you a passionate worshiper? 9. Develop a Strong Team > Do you have a system of bringing along new musicians? > Are you developing multiple musicians for each position? > Are you helping your team grow spiritually? 10. Learn to Pick Great Worship Songs > Are you teaching your congregation the great songs from around the world? > Do you ever go outside your preference in musical styles? > Are you developing a balanced repertoire of fast, medium and slow songs? 11. Learn to Run Highly Effective Rehearsals > Are you spending enough time with the music to get past it and worship? > Are you giving your team all the tools they need to be successful? > Are you and your team memorizing the songs? 12.
