Worship leaders everywhere have heard rumors about Bethel Church, and many feel conflicted and concerned. Bethel writes some truly great songs, but certain aspects of their theology and practices raise questions. Should we continue to sing those songs? Do we have valid reasons to be concerned? Jenn graciously lets me ask her all the questions worship leaders have about Bethel Church and Bethel Music.Find out what Jenn and the leadership at Bethel really believe. If you (or someone you know) feels conflicted about whether or not we should sing Bethel songs, hopefully this conversation brings clarity and the answers youβre looking for.

One minute of silence after a song | Aaron Niequist Worship Ministry Training 2026-09-20 | Worship Leader, here is something you can do this Sunday with no extra gear and no meeting.After a song that clearly meant something, Aaron Niequist would say to his church: I do not know what you need to say to God right now, and I am going to play for one minute so you can say it. Then he played, and nobody rushed into the next song.He wonders out loud whether the primary role of a worship leader is to lovingly invite our community out of autopilot. Most of us know that autopilot from the inside. Song ends, here comes the bridge, on to the next one.This Sunday, leave one minute of room after your most meaningful song and let your people talk to the Lord in it. πFull episode with Aaron Niequist on YouTube and the podcast.

Three tools in the toolbox | Aaron Niequist Worship Ministry Training 2026-09-18 | Worship Leader, this made me laugh and then it landed.Aaron Niequist was leading worship while his pastor was preaching the widest invitation he had ever heard about the kingdom of God. So he looked down into his worship leader toolbox and found three things. Loud songs. Really loud songs. Exceptionally loud songs.He believes in loud songs. We all do, and those expansive moments matter. It hit him one Sunday that the tools he had could not carry the depth and the width of what he was being asked to lead people into.If your toolbox feels thin right now, you are not a bad worship leader. You were handed the tools you were handed.This week, ask the Lord for one new tool, then go learn it from a tradition that is not your own. π Full episode with Aaron Niequist on YouTube and the podcast.

People who dont like to sing | Aaron Niequist Worship Ministry Training 2026-09-16 | Worship Leader, some of the most faithful people in your room are barely singing, and their hearts are fine.Aaron Niequist says we conflate these two things. If someone is less moved by a song than the person who gets paid to lead it professionally, we quietly assume something is wrong with them spiritually. Often they simply do not want to sing. Corporate singing is genuinely unusual. We do it at ball games, at birthdays, and at church.That does not lower the value of singing at all. It just means a lot of people who walk closely with God have a different pathway, and inviting them to worship in a way they can actually enter is an act of hospitality and love.This Sunday, give your church one way to worship that does not require a voice, and watch who leans in. πFull episode with Aaron Niequist on YouTube and the podcast.

Nobody can write songs for your church like you can Worship Ministry Training 2026-09-15 | Worship Leader, you are more qualified to write for your church than you think.You know your people's stories. You know your room, your sound, and the words your church actually says out loud. Krissy Nordhoff says nobody can write songs for your church like you can. Nobody.If you haven't written one yet, you're not behind.

This dangerous theology is sneaking into your worship songs Worship Ministry Training 2026-09-14 | π The Importance of Strong Songs E-Book - sendfox.com/lp/1gqk70There's a dangerous theology sneaking into modern worship songs, and most worship leaders are singing it every single week without even realizing it. One song alone with this theology has racked up over 80 million views in just one year.This isn't just one hit song. It's a pattern showing up across popular worship music right now, and it's shaping how your congregation thinks about God.In this video I break down the exact lyrics to watch for, why this theology is dangerous both for your church and for you personally as the worship leader, and what worship ACTUALLY is compared to what these songs tell you that it is.You're definitely going to want to check this out to make sure you aren't unknowingly leading your congregation astray.Watch it and tell me in the comments: do you think I'm being too strict, or do you agree with me?Know a worship leader who should watch this?

Watch your people, not the stage | Jeremy Riddle Worship Ministry Training 2026-09-13 | Worship Leader, here is a test you can run this Sunday without changing a single thing about your rig.Jeremy Riddle says to look at your people. Are they caught up in what is happening on the stage, or are they engaging with heaven? If the room is mesmerized by us, something is a little misguided, because the whole point is helping them connect with the living God.None of this makes lights or screens bad. We are just asking what our production is actually doing to the people in front of us. That question is worth asking out loud with your team.This Sunday, spend one song watching faces instead of the setlist, then bring what you saw to the Lord. πFull episode with Jeremy Riddle on YouTube and the podcast.

The same meal every Sunday | Aaron Niequist Worship Ministry Training 2026-09-11 | Worship Leader, this picture will stay with you.Aaron Niequist's wife listened to him describe everything he was trying to bring into worship and said, oh, I get it, you are trying to offer a well balanced meal every Sunday. So he looked at the meal he had been serving. It was genuinely good. Chicken, some rice, a little dessert. And it was the same meal every Sunday for years, while he wondered why his community was not getting healthier.Be thankful for your food group. It is probably really good and your people need it, so keep serving it. Then ask the harder question with your team about the ones you have never even brought home from the store.This week, name one food group your services have been missing and ask the Lord where to start. πFull episode with Aaron Niequist on YouTube and the podcast.

Excellence is not the top value | Jeremy Riddle Worship Ministry Training 2026-09-09 | Worship Leader, we have all felt the pressure to make Sunday sound flawless.Jeremy Riddle puts excellence in its place here. It is a real value, and it stays subservient to higher ones. Faith and obedience to the Lord outrank it every day, all day.That is freeing if you serve with volunteers, a thin band, or a room where the mix is never quite right. You are not behind. We still work hard on our craft, and we hold it under the leading of the Holy Spirit rather than above Him.This week, pick the one moment in your set where you would normally protect the arrangement, and ask the Lord what He wants there instead. πFull episode with Jeremy Riddle on YouTube and the podcast.

A songwriters answer to worship song critics Worship Ministry Training 2026-09-08 | Worship Leader, if you've ever rolled your eyes at a new worship song, this one is for us.Krissy Nordhoff writes these songs for a living, and she says it's easier to critique than to create. She has a hard time critiquing anybody's praise when it came from a heartfelt place.So her challenge: if a song doesn't fit your church, write the one that does.Ask the Lord this week what your church actually needs to sing, and start there.Send this to a worship leader who needs it. π#shorts
How a 200-person church built a 50-person worship team Worship Ministry Training 2026-09-07 | π Free Audition Packet Template - sendfox.com/lp/mp2d6yIf your church doesn't have enough worship or production volunteers, this episode is for you. Andrew Liggett leads worship at a church of 200 people, but he's developed a team of nearly 50 volunteers across worship, production, youth band, kids choir, and adult worship. That's one quarter of his entire church serving in music ministry! How did he do it?In this episode, Andrew breaks down the exact system he uses to recruit, train, and grow volunteers from complete beginners into skilled, faithful team members. We talk about why "equipping the saints" (not doing all the ministry yourself) is the real job of a worship leader, how he built low-barrier on-ramps so literally anyone can start serving, and the three-tier approach he uses for every single position on his team, vocals, guitar, keys, drums, and even tech.We also get into the tension every worship leader feels: how do you keep things musically excellent when you're bringing in beginners? Andrew's answer might challenge how you think about "polish" altogether. Plus, we dig into the practical side nobody talks about: how he mics 20 people on stage without destroying his sound crew, and how he gives feedback in a way that actually gets received instead of resented.Whether you're a small church worship leader desperate for more volunteers, a mid-size team wanting to build a real development pipeline, or a worship pastor tired of doing everything yourself, this conversation will give you a framework to steal.Know a worship leader who needs to hear this?

The question that runs your Sunday | Aaron Niequist Worship Ministry Training 2026-09-06 | Worship Leader, most of us have never said the real question out loud.Aaron Niequist remembers the Sunday he realized what he was functionally being asked to answer every week. How do we get the room fired up in the first 25 minutes? Good people, good motives, and a question that quietly decides everything.Because once that is the brief, look at what cannot fit. Lament. Scripture readings. Call and response. Prayer for the world. Silence. Reflection. He counted around 25 things he had come to believe were essential to a healthy church, all of them excluded by the question itself.You are not failing if this is the water you swim in. Most of us were handed it.This week, ask the Lord what He wants those minutes to do in your church, and write that question down where your team can see it. πFull episode with Aaron Niequist on YouTube and the podcast.

They can tell the difference between a performance and a person who means it, and what they are asking for is something real.If you have leaned on production to carry a room, you are not alone. Most of us inherited that instinct from the churches that raised us. And the generation we keep praying would wake up to worship is watching our hearts a lot more than our stages.This week, ask the Lord to make you honest in one moment of your set, then lead that moment like He is the only one in the room. πFull episode with Jeremy Riddle on YouTube and the podcast.

Lament in the top 100 songs | Aaron Niequist Worship Ministry Training 2026-09-02 | Worship Leader, here is a number that is hard to put down.Nearly a third of the 150 Psalms carry lament. Aaron Niequist asked what percentage of the top 100 CCLI worship songs are lament. Zero.That does not make celebratory songs bad. We need them, and our people need them. It does mean the songbook we hand our churches is missing a language that God Himself gave His people for the worst weeks of their lives. And the folks in our rooms who are grieving are singing along to words that skip right past where they actually are.This week, find one song or one Scripture of lament and give your church somewhere to put their sorrow in front of the Lord. πFull episode with Aaron Niequist on YouTube and the podcast.

Krissy Nordhoff on using AI to write worship songs Worship Ministry Training 2026-09-01 | Worship Leader, if you've wondered whether it's okay to let AI write your worship songs, Krissy Nordhoff has a hard line on it.Her reason is one verse: "I will not offer a sacrifice that costs me nothing."Worship is our response to God, so it's worth the cost of actually writing it ourselves. Slower, harder, and ours.If you've been stuck on a song, ask the Lord for one honest line this week and write it down yourself.Full episode on YouTube and the podcast. π#shorts

Worship Ministry Training 2026-08-10 | π» Coupon (20 available) - AcademyUpgradeβ¨ Sign Up Here - members.worshipministrytraining.com/invitation?code=A4A53G&price=monthWorship Ministry Training is changing, and honestly, it's the biggest shift I've made in 14 years of doing this.For over a decade I've focused almost entirely on equipping YOU, the worship leader. Courses, coaching calls, YouTube content, all aimed at making you better. But I've come to realize that training the worship leader alone isn't enough. Your team needs training too, and most of you don't have the time, the know-how, or the bandwidth to create devotionals, workshops, vocal warmups, onboarding pathways, team culture systems, and musician training videos on top of everything else you're already carrying!So I'm restructuring Worship Ministry Training around two pillars: one that equips you, and one that equips your entire team automatically.In this video I walk through exactly what's changing, what stays the same, and how these two systems work together to take weight off your shoulders without costing your volunteers a penny. I also mention a limited-time coupon code for the first people who watch this, so stick around to the end if you want to grab that.Whether you're a bivocational worship leader, a solo worship leader wearing 10 hats, or you're just tired of carrying all the training and admin alone, this one's for you.Know a worship leader who's stretched too thin trying to train their whole team by themselves?

The approval trap thats quietly killing worship leaders Worship Ministry Training 2026-08-03 | π Spiritual Affirmations - sendfox.com/lp/3oxrd4Most worship leaders are leading for approval and don't even realize it.If you replay every service on the drive home, spiral when nobody says anything afterward, feel defensive the second someone gives you feedback, or secretly compare your small room to the highlight reels on Instagram, this conversation is for you.I sit down with Amber Peairs, who served as worship pastor at Gateway Church in Dallas for over 19 years (the church Kari Jobe came from) and now leads The Worship Life. We go deep on one of the most important and least-talked-about issues in worship ministry: leading from a secure identity in Christ versus leading for the approval of people. Amber didn't figure this out until year 15 of ministry. Neither did I.We get specific about what approval-driven leadership actually looks like: chasing a bigger platform before you've been faithful to the one you have, over-committing to every opportunity because saying no feels like disappearing, name-dropping to prove yourself, and getting defensive when anyone pushes back. We've both been there, and we name it honestly.Then Amber raises the question that cuts deepest: Who are you if you never lead worship again? She shares what happened when God told her to step away from leading for two full months, what she heard Him say during that silence, and how it permanently changed the way she leads. You don't want to miss that part.She also walks through the daily practices that have kept her anchored and free from approval-seeking for over 35 years of ministry, and the difference between healthy ambition and approval-driven striving (it's not always obvious which one you're in).Whether you're a brand-new worship leader still finding your footing, a worship pastor deep into your tenure, or someone who's been leading for decades and still wrestles with insecurity, this one's for you.Know a worship leader who's stuck in the approval trap?

Major Misconceptions about Worship Music Worship Ministry Training 2026-06-01 | π Free Worship Leader Starter Kit - sendfox.com/lp/m8zwvrMany of us have been trained to equate music with worship, but the reality is that music is only a "narrow sliver" of what it truly means to honor God.In this video, we break down the major misconceptions about "worship music" and explore a biblical definition of worship that changes everything for worship leaders and their congregations.What Youβll Learn in This Video:The Definition of True Worship: Why worship is actually a whole-life endeavor and a life submitted to bringing God glory in all things.Music vs. Worship: Understanding why music is a powerful tool, but singing does not automatically equal worship.The "Noise" Warning: Why God sometimes rejects our songs when our hearts aren't in the right place, as seen in Amos 5.Excellence in Ministry: Why playing skillfully and with excellence matters to the Creator of the universe.The Power of Singing: How singing acts as a mnemonic device to drip truth into our hearts and help us remember Godβs promises.Singing to One Another: The surprising New Testament command to sing for the edification of the brothers and sisters around you.Key Biblical Insights:Worship is always a "revelation and response". We see who God is, and then we respond rightly to Him with our minds and our hearts. Whether you have a "joyful noise" or a highly trained voice, you are commanded to singβnot just for Godβs glory, but to encourage the faith of your church family.If youβre a worship leader who wants to move beyond the "music genre" and lead your team into a deeper, whole-life understanding of worship, this video is for you!Share this with your worship team to help realign your ministry with these biblical truths!=============================π₯ Free Worship Leader Starter Kit - sendfox.com/lp/m8zwvrπ Free Devos for Worship Teams - sendfox.com/lp/m5pkrxπ» Free Worship Leader Course - worshipministrytraining.com/essentialsπ Free Set Building E-Book - sendfox.com/lp/1d8lykπ Academy for Worship Leaders (15 days free) - worshipministrytraining.comπ€³ Instagram - instagram.com/worshipministrytraining=============================π WORSHIP MINISTRY TRAINING ACADEMY! ππ© Get 15 days of Worship Ministry Academy for FREE:Gain skill and confidence while saving time and reducing overwhelm!
