“Hello, and welcome to this episode of the Worship Band Builder podcast, where we are working with you to lay the foundation for skillful worship! I’m Eric Roberts. I’m joined by my co-host, Emily Roberts.” 

The list we are reading from today we got from a social media post by http://www.joelbrown.co.uk/

Ten Tips for Worship Leaders. 

1) Make sure you have a development plan that addresses your skills, character and leadership potential. You don't become a well-rounded worship leader by accident; be intentional about growth. 

2) Invest time, money and training in your gifts and skills. Raw talent makes for a good one hit wonder but isn't enough for sustainable ministry.

3) Find and commit to a mentor who has your permission to evaluate your progress and motivation. Whether that be your Worship Pastor, Pastor or another experienced Worship Leader. 

4) Learn to worship in the absence of music to ensure music doesn't become the object of your worship. That's harder to do than it sounds for most of us due to our modern dependence on music for worship. 

5) Learn and try out new songs as guided by your context. Sometimes our reluctance to learn new songs is laziness masked by a preference for tradition. 

6) Learn your hymns too and try to find ways to make them fresh and musically accessible.
