Here was our set list:
So you may have already seen the post on my blog regarding my Alaska trip… as much as I enjoyed the trip, I was actually not even on vacation. I was brought into Cordova by the folks at Cordova Community Baptist Church as the featured guest of a small worship conference. The conference
I was asked to write this article called about hiring a worship leader (or being hired as a worship leader). In the article, I’m discussing the traits we should look for when hiring a WL, and of course, or if we’re an aspiring WL who wishes to be "hired" in a church.
