Leading Worship From The Keyboard, Micah Vanderhill

Symposium on Worship Archive

Keyboardists today are expected to adapt to a multitude of worship styles and settings. This session demonstrates tools needed to expand playing versatility, especially in working with worship teams. Solo congregational leading, practical improvisation, playing from a lead sheet and other topics will be demonstrated for keyboardists of all levels.

The Worship Architect, Constance Cherry

Symposium on Worship Archive

Comparing the work of a worship leader to that of an architect, this session offers a blueprint for designing worship services through various phases: laying the foundations, building the large frame for encountering God, creating doors and windows for dialogue with God, adding style to the worship event, and more.

Crafting A Hymn Tune: "Tricks Of The Trade", Alfred Fedak

Symposium on Worship Archive

A good congregational hymn tune is simple enough for untrained singers to learn quickly and sing well. It should also be fresh, memorable, and sturdy enough to withstand repetition. Finally, it must fit its text like a glove. How does one write such a tune? Come hear this widely-published composer describe his own process and offer advice on how to write your own good tunes. You are also invited to bring along a dozen copies of a tune or two you have composed, to share and to have the opportunity for an encouraging critique.

"Alleluias" Concentrated: Enabling Expansive Worship In Small Membership Congregations, Paul Detterman

Symposium on Worship Archive

“If we only had / could…” can become too common a phrase in smaller congregations. God invites us to worship as we can, not as we can’t. Paul Detterman spends the vast majority of his time working with “wee kirks” (under 70 in worship). This session will equip and encourage even the smallest congregation (or small group within a larger community) to design and experience deep, joy-filled worship using everything God has given them and requiring nothing more.

Worship And Human Emotion, Syd Hielema

Symposium on Worship Archive

Human emotion plays a profound role in Christian worship, but this role is very complex and easily misunderstood. What is the role of human emotion in our walk with God, and how do we as worship leaders obediently honour that role? What temptations to abuse emotion do we experience? How might we guide congregations to both emotional freedom and emotional maturity?

Glocal Worship! Finding The Local Congregation's Global Voice, Michael Hawn

Symposium on Worship Archive

Glocal (no, this is not misspelled!) worship assumes that the Holy Spirit empowers local congregations as part of the body of Christ to connect with, pray for, and learn from the global church. This session will explore strategies for encouraging Glocal worship wherever you are.

Leading With Light: Using Video Projectors Wisely, Steven Koster

Symposium on Worship Archive

What is the screen supposed to do? How do you create media that fits what worship is all about? Using illustrations, techniques, and tools from the field we’ll explore models for using the screen and a process for creating media that helps lead worship rather than distract from it.

Fresh Encounters With Your Grace: New Expressions Of The Psalms, Rawn Harbor, Martin Tel, Eelco Vos, Konstantin Zhigulun

Symposium on Worship Archive

Recording and outline of a vesper service featuring the Psalms.

Rich And Varied Responses To The Word, Constance Cherry

Symposium on Worship Archive

If worship is a dialogue of revelation/response between God and people, what happens when the primary avenue of revelation (the sermon) ends without a thoughtful, intentional response from the community? This session helps worship leaders envision rich possibilities for developing responses to the Word so that the conversation with God is sustained, especially when the Eucharist is not offered.

Leading Worship With The Guitar, Andrew Donaldson, Robert Keeley

Symposium on Worship Archive

Sometimes a guitarist is the lead musician in a band, or perhaps the guitarist is the only musician leading the congregation in song. Does leading with guitar also mean leading with your voice? Can the guitar take the keyboard role? This session will explore the needed skills and the challenges of encouraging congregational singing led by guitar

Scripture Comes Alive, Betty Grit

Symposium on Worship Archive

Grant recipients will describe how their congregations became engaged through sermons, music and visual arts to bring Scripture to life.

Worship And Mission After Christendom, Alan Kreider, Eleanor Kreider

Symposium on Worship Archive

As Christendom wanes, worship and mission can be integrated anew. Worship glorifies God and forms the worshippers to participate in the missio Dei. This session examines worship practices that embody God’s mission, forming intriguing Christians and hospitably receiving inquirers whom the Christians attract.
