Keep Your Congregation Engaged in Worship

We have all had them . . . the days where we feel like the people in our churches are completely disengaged during the worship set.

The music may be top notch, you may be enjoying the presence of God personally, but the congregation just isn’t with you.

Our most basic calling as worship leaders is to lead people into worship, but sometimes the old adage holds true . . . you can lead a horse to water, but you can’t make him drink.

In today’s Tuesday Morning Insight, I want to share with you some ideas for how to keep your congregation engaged in the worship set in a brand new, FREE audio training podcast.
