A good worship leader can make an incredible difference in a church. A not-so-good worship leader can really mess things up. Jess and Thom interview Mike Harland to dive deeply into seven characteristics of excellent worship leaders that are often not at the forefront of discussion.

    2. A joyous desire to work with and under the authority of the pastor.
    3. Humility from the perspective of a highly visible position in the church.
    4. An ability to recruit and maintain volunteers.
    5. A good conflict manager.
    6. A unifier in the church.
    7. Transparency and healthy communication skills.
