Turn your church musicians and sound techs...
into a worship team.
Do any of these problems sound familiar?
-
Your worship and production team has struggled to transition to livestreaming
-
You have bought new gear or added tracks, but things haven't "clicked"
-
Every week is a struggle to find people to serve
-
Your best people are overworked while others are undertrained
-
People are tired and joy is low
My name is Nathan Smith. I have led worship and worship bands for over a decade. Here's what I've learned.
Growing a team is different than managing players, singers, and techs.
Yes, the band needs musical skill. Yes, your techs need proper training. But to have a team, you need more than a collection of people.
To have a worship team, you need a joyful community.
I've been there. I've hauled the gear, played the services, and had the hard conversations. I've built joyful community and culture. And I can show you how to:
-
Have clear communication between people
-
Train musicians to know when to play, and when to leave space
-
Train sound techs to have a musical ear and a technical mind
-
Run an efficient and fun rehearsal
-
Recruit and train new volunteers
No matter your budget, you can get personal, professional help with your worship ministry.
Start with a free 20 minute Zoom call.
In what areas would you like to see your people grow? Let's talk. No strings attached.
Get a professional assessment.
I will analyze three of your Sunday worship services. After I learn about your production setup we’ll discuss solutions on a 30 minute Zoom call. This includes continued support by email and a discounted rate on future coaching calls.
In-person workshops for the whole team.
I’ll come to you, get to know your people, and together we’ll work on all three fundamental skills: the musical, the technical, and the relational.

Recruit and train new volunteers

Serve with excellence and joy
-
Understand and honor each other
Or your team could:

Suffer burnout and resentment
-
Spend money on gear without fixing the real problems
-
Struggle to find and train volunteers
Take care of your people, and watch what a healthy team can do.
