Leading Worship
Worship is about the response of a believer’s heart and not about the culture of our time. In this workshop, we will discuss how to use the tools of today while keeping the purpose of worship the central focus.
Copyright Laws
Since 2004, the overall music industry has decreased by 31% worldwide. The development and creation of worship music has also been affected within the church. In this session, we will tackle this question: What should a Christian do about it and how should the church respond?
