Worship Ministry Catalyst

If you missed last weeks’ podcast, I’d highly recommend you go check it out here. In this week’s episode, David and Kevin continue their discussion on songwriting through the book “God Songs.” I’d strongly recommend you pick up a copy of the book and go through it with us!

We’re going to be going through the book God Songs by Paul Baloche & Jimmy & Carol Owens. (If you click on the title, it will take you directly to the store on Paul’s site where you can buy your own copy of the book.) By the way, if you haven’t checked out Paul’s Site: leadworship.com, you should do that. There are tons of great resources there for your worship team.

If you’re a faithful listening to the worship ministry catalyst podcast, we would love to hear from you and we’d also love it if you’d take the time to share us with your friends and other worship leaders you know.

Whether you’re new or have been listening for quite some time, we would love to hear form you, as well as we would really appreciate some good feedback on iTunes, if you don’t mind taking a minute to do so that would be awesome!

Well, I have to admit, I’m very excited about this podcast. The topic we’re starting to talk about this week is one that is huge for me. It’s something I’ve been interested in since I was a teenager, and was in fact my first real passion in music. That is the art of songwriting. It is most definitely an art and a craft, one that I’m very passionate about.

Kevin & I have been talking about doing a series on songwriting for quite some time now, and we’re thrilled to be getting started. When this topic first came up, we decided we’d want to give it quite a bit of thought so that our end result was more methodical than whimsical. That was when we decided not to reinvent the wheel. Instead, we’re going to be going through the book God Songs by Paul Baloche & Jimmy & Carol Owens.

We’ve all been to worship conferences, come back and realized we are disappointed that we didn’t actually learn more useful information than we did. Well, that wasn’t the case for Kevin in this episode. He has just returned from a conference and he has a lot of great information to share with you that I enjoyed listening to, so I’m sure you will too.

The conference that Kevin went to was the Deeper Conference.

It seems to be a buzz word, and has been for a while around the church in America, and that’s the topic of this week’s Worship Ministry Catalyst Podcast…Community! Not just the idea of community, but how do we do more in our worship services to create community among the body? Should we even try?

I don’t want to give away the whole episode, so check it out below!

In This week’s podcast David & Kevin talk about a coldplay concert that Kevin had just gone to and we compare that to what we do in our church services. We talk about what drives the production value at a concert like the coldplay concert and what drives the production values in our churches.

This week, David & Kevin talk about what we do with our emotions when we’re leading worship. What do we do to make sure we are keeping our emotions in check so that we can effectively lead while at the same time make sure that we don’t remove all emotion from ourselves.

It’s a tricky topic, one that I’m sure you have dealt with a lot in your experience with being involved in a worship ministry.

Pianos, Pianos everywhere and not a key to plunk. This episode is the first of two in our first workshop on playing piano in the worship band. In a lot of contemporary worship music, keys tend to be harder and harder to come by. Not anymore, keys are making a comeback, baby!

We do some talking about some ways to stay sharp as a piano player and some of the philosphy we use when we play, then we start with some of the basics.
