"The Power of 1 " seeks to align us as worship leaders and team members with what God intended worship to be about: Him. The deeper we know God, the greater our worship will be. To become better leaders of worship, it is imperative we get to know God, the object of our worship, better. During the next 52 weeks, you and your team will embark on an adventure to learn more about God and worship. You will be challenged through these devotionals to see worship from God's perspective and avoid common worship leading pitfalls. You will prayerfully grow deeper in love with Jesus, more clearly understand your role as a worshipper and become more effective in leading others into the presence of God. It is time we return to what God intended for us to be: Worshippers that are unashamedly abandoned for Him and who desire nothing less than to fully obey our Lord. If our churches are going to have the eternal impact God desires for us, it must start with us as pastors and leaders, including those of us that help lead people in worship to our Living God. May this book help propel you and your worship ministry closer to Him... PS - "The Power of 1 - LEADER'S GUIDE" is designed for Worship Leaders to utilize in leading their teams through the devotionals. "The Power of 1 - PARTICIPANT'S GUIDE" is designed for Worship Team Members to use in following along during devotionals.
