As a worship pastor, you have a great opportunity to encourage your attenders to connect with God corporately in different and engaging ways. One of those ways is to lead and teach the heart of worship online. Check out these ways to lead worship virtually.
Help people create an environment and heart for worship by providing your church’s weekend worship setlist. This helps attenders continue to worship throughout the week.

We all know that worship transcends style, tradition, or preference. It’s all a joyful noise to God—embrace this time that’s ever-changing and bring creativity to your worship.
What if you change up the style your attenders are used to and show them another type of worship? How can you transform a song they’re used to hearing into something brand new?

The goal is to mix things up in order to create an experience that will help all types of people encounter God in new or different ways.
One way to engage attenders is by leading through tutorials for familiar worship songs. Check out all worship resources on Open Network.

As Zephaniah 3:17 says, the Lord is living and active in our lives, and one of the ways that He rejoices over us is through song.
When you lead your congregation in worship—whether in a church auditorium or via a digital service—you are helping them remember the living God who meets all of their needs and leads them with a hope that never fails.
