About this Episode
Podcast Episode #282
Jim Shaddix joins us to discuss what a healthy relationship between the pastor and worship leader looks like in the local church.
Some highlights from today's episode include:
* "One of the hardest things to do as a worship leader is to worship personally."
* "The tough part of a pastor working with a worship pastor is when they don't see eye to eye on worship practice."
* "Worship leading should be a disciple-making event."
* "If you are going to teach theology through music, the worship pastor needs a good theological lens."
* "The personal discipleship of a worship leader will show up in the public worship leading."
* "Humility and genuineness are needed in a worship pastor."
* It is difficult for a worship leader to plan a service effectively when no input is provided by the pastor.
* "Mentoring should be a part of all church ministry staff relationships."
