How To Evaluate A Worship Song
🎶 101 Congregational Worship Songs - In this video I will teach you how to properly evaluate a worship song before introducing it to your congregation. I'll explain what to look for in lyrical content, how to evaluate singability, and I'll share a special tip that will help you identify if a song is ACTUALLY a good song (or just a pig wearing lipstick). Don't make your church sing weak songs. The strength of your church's response in worship is directly correlated to the strength and clarity of the songs you choose. Watch this video and learn everything you need to know about properly evaluating songs for corporate worship. ============================= 🔥 Free Worship Leader Starter Kit - 💻 Free Worship Leader Course - 📖 Free Set Building E-Book - 🎙️ Podcast for Worship Leaders - 📄 Free Devos for Worship Teams - 🎓 Academy for Worship Leaders (15 days free) - 🤳 Instagram - ============================= 🎉 ACADEMY! 🎉 🚩 Get 15 days of Worship Ministry Academy for FREE: Get organized and equipped with our 10 in-depth courses, live monthly training, weekly Q&A sessions, pre-built ministry systems, team documents, team discipleship material, personalized help, and a supportive community!
