I've got a secret method I use to write worship speaking transitions in 5 minutes or less...
And I'm not talking about tiny, little "Let's stand and worship." speaking transitions. I'm talking about speaking transitions that are filled with Scripture.
I use it pretty much every single time I lead worship…
All too often we insert milquetoast, formulaic, noncommittal homilies between our worship songs...
You know how it goes... "Welcome to church. Please stand and sing with us." (repeated every single Sunday in your best Siri/Alexa voice)
But by learning just a few simple things, you can break out of the routine and speak with authority and confidence while leading worship…
You finish your last song before the message and your pastor walks up on stage. You find your seat in the congregation... now what?
Obviously, you can sit there and listen to your pastor preach along with the rest of your church.
But what if there were other things you could do that would help you lead worship well when you come up to lead that final song or two after your pastor is done?…
One of the keys to good speaking transitions while leading worship is speaking with authority.
People want to follow people who have AUTHORITY: the power to influence others because of a recognized knowledge about something.
But all too often we insert milquetoast, formulaic, noncommittal homilies between our worship songs…
One mistake worship leaders make when speaking while leading worship is using too much language that focuses on themselves.
It sounds something like this, "I was reading MY Bible yesterday and came across this verse and it really spoke to ME. This is what's going on in MY life. It's awesome how God can speak to ME in MY time of need."…
