Glad you asked.<strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/acappella.org\/worship-leader-institute\/\" class=\" decorated-link\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Here:<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>What\u2019s a song leader to do? For decades there have been scarcely any opportunities to study a cappella worship leading in an academic setting. Only in the past few years have universities begun instituting degrees in worship music. And even these programs won\u2019t give you the secrets of the worship leaders who get invited to the big conferences \u2013 the ones who light up the room and get everyone singing. Such courses can\u2019t because they\u2019re concentrated on Bible and music fluency almost exclusively. And who\u2019s got four years to invest, anyway? You want to give your best for God and your congregation, but you\u2019ve got to lead worship now.<\/p>\n<p>What if you could get these secrets, all of them, in a week? Sound like a great opportunity? That\u2019s what\u00a0<strong>Keith Lancaster<\/strong>, founder of\u00a0<strong>Acappella Ministries<\/strong>, has created with\u00a0<strong>The\u00a0<\/strong><strong>Worship Leader Institute<\/strong>, the world\u2019s premiere training resource for comprehensive a cappella worship education.<\/p>\n<p><em>But how are you able to load so much content into one week?<\/em>\u00a0It\u2019s simple, because many of the secrets themselves are simple. In fact, at a subconscious level, you already know much of what makes for powerful, charismatic worship leading. It\u2019s a matter of putting in the right work and getting coached.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Do you know someone at your parish who could benefit from this\u2026?<\/p>\n<p>If nothing else, they could become superstars on YouTube.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This video from Nashville is sweeping the interwebs, but it has a backstory:\u00a0 A video showing customers inside the Rivergate Chick-Fil-A bursting into song is making the rounds on social media.
