Wilhelm Olivier replied to David Loeffler's discussion 'Worship length and no. of songs'"Some really good input here, we are a bit traditional in the three praise songs (the worship leader then prays for and releases the children to childrens church) and three worship songs BUT our worship leaders and musicians are very adept to…"
David Loeffler replied to David Loeffler's discussion 'Worship length and no. of songs'"Ours is simular, the main difference is that we have a powerpoint slide between each song to let people know they can bring their tithes and offerings up at any time during worship as part of our worship, this works out great, no break in the…"
Matthew Stahlmann replied to David Loeffler's discussion 'Worship length and no. of songs'"I agree with giving the Spirit time. We have a very basic service outline. Worship, announcements/offering, word. This past sunday my friend (AKA Worship Leader, AKA Associate Pastor) saw a simmering in the congregation and I…"
David Loeffler replied to David Loeffler's discussion 'Worship length and no. of songs'"We use Power point and, Praise God, the operator watches me as does the team and skips to where it needs to be, not perfect but we are a small church and everybody understands, so the flow is great."
Greg Moore replied to David Loeffler's discussion 'Worship length and no. of songs'"How tightly you "script" anything may depend on the mentality of your church, your worship team, your pastoral leaders -- and the abilities of the projectionist (assuming such a person projects words on a screen, such as we do for one of…"
David Loeffler replied to David Loeffler's discussion 'Worship length and no. of songs'"I personally believe that you must leave time for the Holy Spirit to move, it's supposeed to all about and for God so we need to give Him what time He wants.
We probably never do any song exactly the way we practice, I've tought our team…"
Randy replied to David Loeffler's discussion 'Worship length and no. of songs'"should worship songs follow a strict script of how many times you do each part of the song or should there be some flexibility for the Holy Spirit to move?"
David Loeffler replied to David Loeffler's discussion 'Worship length and no. of songs'"I just wanted to add that it is great to have that freedom to be lead by the Spirit and not man, everything needs to be done in order but not controled by man.
God Bless you."
David Loeffler replied to David Loeffler's discussion 'Worship length and no. of songs'"thats on of the hard things about multipal sevices, things need to be timed perfectly. I always pray for a bigger church but also to try to keep the sevices far enough apart to beable to go with the flow of the Holy Spirit and not be constained by…"
Bill Guynn replied to David Loeffler's discussion 'Worship length and no. of songs'"we generally start with an expresso defining briefly what the service will cover then two songs, first one usually secular
then we do brief announcements on upcoming church events with a short prayer, then three songs one will usually be a hymm…"
David Loeffler replied to David Loeffler's discussion 'Worship length and no. of songs'"Looks like what you do is very simular to me, except for the Pastor part, I am the Pastor, so that helps alot.

Matthew Stahlmann replied to David Loeffler's discussion 'Worship length and no. of songs'"Varies depending on the response of the spirit in the congregation. Songs vary as well. Often a moving target. Today was 10:30 to 12 noon. Great service. Not always that long but it's awesome when it is..."

Hi David,
That is so cool!
Actually, it's truly amazing. It's like a dream-come-true for singers - something which was hardly imaginable not long ago. Wow.
Thank you,
Dave Straley

Hi David,
As I posted, I'd like to hear more about how you use pitch correction in ministry.
Thank you,

Linda Achtymichuk said… hi David, I must apologize I feel, for I think that Stevo is offended at me !
I don't know him or you, but I am probably one of the softest, "people pleasers" that ever walked this planet, and it was only after all else failed that I had to (with great inner trembling!!)say, "the worship is not for you, but for God" I was in retail management for 20 years very successfully because my people were always respected and respected and went to the wall for me; maybe once in all those years, did I have to "play the authority card" as was quoted. But I have so often seen the lack of respect in the church family and that is sad. At our church, we have 4 different worship leaders and each one completely respects the other - the fellow I mentioned, didn't respect any of us!! I found out later, it was really because he was frustrated because he thought he should be a pastor.
Anyway, and I could definitely be wrong - I often am - but it seems Stevo just wants to argue and disagree for the sake of disagreeing... seems to disagree with everyone... so it may be a long time before I ever add a comment to a forum, if this is what happens...
When broad accusations are made or words are put in my mouth that I did not say, it's useless to continue the conversation, for it's falling on deaf ears.
By your responses, I can tell that you have done all that could be done and from a heart of love. We are called to love one another, but that doesn't mean accepting their garbage.
As pastor and worship leader, you have a full plate and I pray the peace of Christ cover you completely, from head to toe!
The Word is the Word and will never lead you astray ... be blessed!
