In Episode 10, we talk about the importance of avoiding train wrecks in a worship set. It all starts with good communication. When the band is clear on where you're headed, there's a good chance you'll avoid any mishaps or train wrecks. When the band is clueless and people are communicating different things... that's where the breakdown occurs. It's really difficult to not be distracted by a train wreck. This episode goes hand in hand with being prepared. But it's so much more than that. This is not only being musically prepared, but having the knowledge in the moment when NOT to play something. Or communicating ahead of time with the MD or band director so you and everyone else are aware of where you're going beforehand. We'd love if you shared any train wreck stories you may have had recently or not-so-recently. Shoot us an e-mail at podcast@worshiponline.com or leave it in the review section of iTunes!

In Episode 7, we get real and talk about the importance of humility as worship leaders. Now... how do you have an open and honest conversation about humility with a couple of musicians on a podcast? --- we have not idea. But it starts with this quote - "Humility is being comfortable in your own skin." The opposite of humility can look different. It can look like insecurity, arrogance, lack of self confidence or self worth... whereas some characteristics of someone who walks in humility, is service, confidence, and influence. Confidence is key to healthy leadership, but leadership is a bi-product of service. If you don't serve people first, then how will you know how to lead? In this episode, we start the conversation and ask some of the hard questions, while also point out some examples.
