Following worship, a student worship leader remarked, “I’m always told what to do, but rarely how to do it or even why I’m doing it.” This student is asking the church to ponder a critical question: How can we guide young worship leaders? More poignantly, how do we encourage them to create, play, and imagine? How do we the instill confidence they need to stand before the body of Christ? How do we cultivate a theological lens they can use for practice and reflection? Guided by these questions, this discussion-based workshop works toward establishing a framework for shaping the habits, practices, and formation of young worship leaders.
