7 things worship leaders need to stop doing.

So I came across this video on YouTube by Allen Parr (founder of The Beat) and felt like sharing with worship leaders because it will help and improve us.

Seven (7) things worship leaders need to stop doing. 

1. Stop making worship about you. 

Worship is not about you but about God. Stop drawing attention to yourself. Avoid distraction and lead people to God. 

2. Stop singing songs that are theologically inaccurate. 

As worship leader, we have the opportunity to lead people into God's presence and also teach them something about God's nature. We can't afford to lead them astray by singing lyrics that are theologically inaccurate. Always know that lyrics are so powerful that people tend to remember them quickly. 

3. Stop being predictable. 

Be different. Be creative. Just do something different from the normal you. 

4. Stop commanding people during worship.

Our job as worship leaders is to lead people into God's presence and not to command them. 

5. Don't just sing the song, lead the people into worship. 

Don't just enjoy your singing, help the people connect also to the lyrics of the song you're singing so they can flow in worship also. 

6. Stop quenching the Spirit. 

There are pick moment in worship and we must understand that and not kill the flow by our line-up of songs. Understand when the Spirit wants you to stay in a particular song for while, just stay there. 

7. Stop assuming people know how to worship. 

Part of our duty is to teach the people how to worship. Apart from teaching them about God, we must be intentional in teaching them how to worship God.

Fear of the unknown

Fear according to Cambridge Dictionary "is an unpleasant emotion or thought that you have when you are frightened or worried by something dangerous, painful, or bad that is happening or might happen:". To get what I'm about to share, I'll share a personal story so we see how fear of the unknown has kept a lot of us from achieving our desires in life. I went to a shop to get a pair of jeans and so I asked for the price of one I've tested and loved, the guy in charge told me it was XYZ Naira. Woooooow I didn't budget for such, I said a prize that was abnormal just so I can leave the place (that was my excuse) because I was afraid. A few days back I summoned courage and went back there again, I acted as though I've never been there before (but the guy recognized me 😂), but this time I was bold. They told me the same prize but this time I had the courage and so I had to negotiate and I finally got the jeans for almost half of the initial price they told me.

How to Be a Good Singer

How to Be a Good Singer 1. Work With a Professional Listening to what friends have to say or reading blog posts can be helpful but when it’s time to take the next step, you’re going to need a Vocal Coach of some kind. When you’re first starting to improve your singing skills, that person might be a Teacher in school or perhaps someone else you know who has been singing for a long time. READ MORE 2. Breathe! Breathing properly and in time is key to delivering an on-point vocal performance and it is something you will have to master if you want to be a good singer. Breathing is also, sadly, something many of those just starting out as singers don’t think about nearly enough when really it’s one of the first things that needs to be mastered in order to improve. You should take time to practice breathing (a sentence that sounds funny but is actually sound advice) before every performance. In fact, if you’re really committed to becoming a great singer and potentially pursuing th
