OK, we all have it and we all have to deal with the isolation, but today's pod is about how you can maximise lockdown.  Not just endure it, but use this time to reset and make life changes, and worship leading changes, that will last forever.

So listen to this and let's make the very best use of the time and isolation afforded by the COVID pandemic.

Is there hope in the lockdown?  Of course, there is, but for many of us going through this unprecedented time, it's hard to see the hope of things ever settling down.

Great news... God is still on the throne, and you are still his child!  So we wanted to produce a fun podcast that blesses you and gives real hope for the future.

And I have a  feeling church, and therefore worship leading may never be the same.  Listen to this podcast ad be blessed!

Lockdown has been a challenge for all of us, and as worship leaders, it is especially hard to try and lead worship to a congregation who are only on a screen, and whom you cannot see anyway.

So this special pod deals with lockdown, and how you can lead worship to your people who are in lockdown and needing to connect with and worship the Lord in a new, different and fresh way.

We re all going through it, and none of us like it, but lockdown is a reality for the entire world, and yes, even worship leaders.  

Church is super weird right now, with zero contact, isolation, church on Facebook, zoom meetings, and frankly we are all getting a little, well, "over it" byt this stage.

And so is your worship team.  In this special pod, we look at ways you can encourage and bless your worship team during their, and your lockdown.  The Lord can open unique opportinuties for you, so listen to this pod and put some of these into action...

We all love them, and if he's not there we sense a gap at the bottom end of our mix, but sometimes bass guitarists can disrupt things, especially if they are too loud. 

So this week we are going to examine some sensible, subtle and excellent measures you can take to not only control your bass guitarist but to unleash their full potential.  

Listen and learn how to encourage and get the very best from your bassist, who should be an integral part of your team and your worship sound...

Isolation... most of the known world is going through it right now, thanks to some virus that is afflicting mankind, so we thought we would do something crazy like discuss what you can do during the COVID 19 crisis.

We can't solve all your problems, but we thought a bit of fun and a few useful suggestions would be in order for those still in isolation.  Tune in, get some fun ideas and have a few laughs along the way...

Broadcast quality has suddenly become all-important in the lockdown due to COVID 19.  

With the church as we know it closed, church leaders have been forced to adapt quickly to the current climate, and for many, it has been a steep learning curve.

And the same applies to worship leaders and worship teams.  We want to produce the best quality without compromising the spirit of worship, but most of us do not know how to achieve this goal given the lack of technology, or technological knowledge.

But fear not, because we have produced this special podcast just for you to help you use simple, effective and easily obtained technology to make your broadcasts top notch.

Prerecorded Worship Leading is not something that we usually do, but in this COVID 19 situation, Prerecorded Worship Leading can be a great option.

But it is not without its difficulties, or an extremely heavy time commitment.  Listen to this podcast and learn how to get the best our of tour worship leading...

Leading live worship in COVID 19 is a challenge for many churches, mine included.

This is certainly uncharted territory for us, but I believe it is a great and noble task that we can and must rise to in the current environment/lockdown.

So all over the world, wherever you are, don't let COVID 19 derail your church and your worship leading.  Listen to these 12 minutes and let's make this trying situation a time for the Kingdom of God to expand and take new territory! 

An electric guitarist is a double edged sword for most worship leaders and worship teams. 

But we Love a Great Electric Guitarist, Right?

Yes, we do, we all love a guy who can play an electric guitar like Santana!  But most of us know that that can play out one of two ways.

First, you might find an electric guitarist who loves Jesus, loves to serve and sees him or herself as a servant, serving Jesus with genuine humility and self sacrificing obedience.

Or, secondly, you might get an electric guitarist who might love God, but they want to be the star of every show, playing loud and dominant over everyone else and who wants to make worship their domain.

Listen to this podcast and learn how to make your electric guitarist one of the greatest assets of your worship team.
