Worship School
Thanks for your interest in the School of Worship! We are now accepting applications for the 2022-2023 program. 



The Worship Collective: School of Worship is a one year long program dedicated to providing coaching and training for those who desire to become worship leaders in a local church setting. By combining hands-on training in specific church settings, leadership at a local church level, training by a collective of area pastors and worship leaders, and coaching with direction and intention, students will experience well-rounded and multi-faceted training to prepare and equip them with real world worship leading. 
To see the Church take ownership of developing leaders right where they are at. We will link arms with people and churches, working together to provide both training and ministry on a local level, to watch the Kingdom of God grow through collaboration and application.
We believe that learning happens best when it’s direct and in context. Step out of the classroom learning space and into a specific church to be immersed in real, hands on ministry as you grow and learn in your role.
We desire to provide this hands on training in a localized context, each student will be assessed and placed in a specific local church that would benefit from having a worship leader to lead their church and their worship ministry. In this way, students gain real-life worship leading experience in a church setting and at the same time give church’s the ability to have a worship leader that might normally have the opportunity to have one on staff.
Prayer & Fasting, Leading a Band Rehearsal, Being With God, Arranging a Worship Song, How to Craft Worship Sets with Purpose, Flow and Direction, Leading with Expression, Creating Flow Through Transitions, Non-Musical Worship, Auditioning a Team Member - and more. Each of these competencies is then given space to be experienced and applied, growing through the program.
Students engage in theological teachings and trainings from local area pastors that are foundational to being a worship leader or pastor: What is Worship? The Gospel, What is the Church? Prayer and Worship, Fasting and Solitude - and more. 
Students enter into difficult conversations that help them navigate the skills and theology they are learning and applying at the ground level in the churches they serve. Local area worship leaders share their experience, failures, and wisdom around topics such as: How do you stay creative week after week? Planning and making a space to be organized, Seasonal Services and Making an Impact, Rest and Refreshment working in Worship Ministry, Staying engaged when your preferences differ from the church culture you are in, Working with a lead Pastor - and more. 
Serve 20-25 hours a week in a specific church context for the duration of the program, building relationships and developing a worship ministry in a specific church culture. Work alongside of a lead pastor to shepherd and oversee their experience. Students are assessed and placed in a church to lead, minister and apply their learning.
Meet weekly as a group to come together and share your experiences, struggles and victories, spurring each other on as you learn collectively. These times will contain specific assignments that develop and draw out specific character traits, worship leading skills, and spiritual disciplines to create a well-rounded worship leader. Further, learning from local area lead pastors to work through theological topics and with other local worship pastors to discuss and examine the real-world of worship leading provides a smaller, concentrated and personal way of learning from those with real life experience who are in the middle of ministry themselves.
Open to college graduates or at a minimum seniors/upperclassmen and above who have heard a call to vocational ministry
