ORBC Worship BLOG (Excelling in Education)


 This week I would like to take a different approach to the BLOG. One of the publications that I ready is Worship Leader Magazine. One of the recent articles addresses the role of education in the life of worship.


This week I would like for you to read the article (takes about 4-5 min) and think about these questions:

1.     How did God prepare Paul for ministry? How did God prepare Peter and the other Apostles? Are there similarities, differences?
2.     How does the season of our life effect out preparation and education?
3.     Do all performers and techs need a formal education? Why or Why not?
4.     In what way is God asking you to make your skills and ministry more excellent?
