10: How To Save Your Church From Self-Focused Worship


Listen Later

Welcome to the Worship Workshop Podcast where we help you grow a stronger team that leads engaging worship.

This season on the podcast, our focus is on what it takes to engage your congregation in worship. One of the biggest barriers we all face to people engaging worship in our gatherings is our focus on ourselves.

Today, we’re talking with a worship leader who journeyed away from consumer-oriented worship with his church. Enjoy my conversation Manuel Luz.

About Manuel:

Songwriter, author, inventor, arts advocate, and pastor—Manuel Luz is passionate about worship, coffee, the Oakland Raiders, and the intersections of faith and the arts. Manuel’s book, Imagine That: Discovering Your Unique Role as a Christian Artist (Moody Publishers) is a practical and personal theology of the arts.

His current book, Honest Worship: From False Self to True Praise (InterVarsity Press), released in Fall 2018, addresses the critical intersections between spiritual formation and worship. He is also the inventor of the patented musical instrument, the WalkaBout™, which recently won Best of Show at the world-renowned NAMM Show earlier this year. Check out his thought-provoking blog, “Adventures in Faith and Art” (www.manuelluz.com), his four solo albums (iTunes or www.CDBaby.com), or the WalkaBout Drum (www.walkaboutdrum.com).

If you want more training for your team, AND training for you as the leader, AND a community of worship leaders and team members you can interact with, we have it. It’s the Worship Workshop Learning Community.

The Learning Community is free training, encouragement and community for you AND your team members. So go to WorshipWorkshop.com/lc to learn more and get access to that right now.

Support Us On Patreon

If you love what we’re doing here on the Podcast and over at the LC, and would love to be a part of it, I want to challenge you to become a Patreon supporter. And you can do that for as little as $2 a month. And you actually get more value in content and perks than what you contribute monthly.

But more importantly than that, you’re able to help us provide training content for leaders and worship teams literally all over this world, and some who don’t have the means to buy products or enroll in a membership program like Worship Workshop. So go WorshipWorkshop.com/patreon to become a supporter.

Write a Review

And finally, if you’re not able to partner with us financially right now, but you’d love to help us out, give us a positive review at Apple Podcasts. You can find that by going to WorshipWorkshop.com/apple
