Sometimes the content of our worship services can be very emotional for us. Jon Myles shares the benefit of good preparation in such situations.
Why should I be concerned about being true to myself? Sometimes it is better to listen to your own heart than to try and please people. Jon Myles explains why being yourself brings glory to God, and why that should matter in ministry.
There are so many wonderful songs used every week in worship services, but even with the ocean of choices, there are times when nothing really seems to embody what your local congregation is trying to say. Grab your guitar or sit down at the piano and go to work!
Only God can really motivate someone to praise Him. But if we align our hearts with His and simply join Him in the work of leading people, we will have the pleasure of watching hearts come alive.
When I lead people, I want to lead like Jesus. I want to love like Jesus. It is easy in ministry to get caught up in the details of leading, to spend our energy on the how and neglect the why, but the truth is this: If we are not leading out of compassion and love, then we are leading out of something else.
