This is a picture of a young 15 year old Spencer Cormany leading worship.

Last week I went up to my old church camp. It got me thinking about that younger Spencer Cormany... and how little he knew about worship leading.

I thought I knew so much but, 14 years later, I realize that there is still so much more to learn…

Guys! Big ANNOUNCEMENT! I got a new job!

As many of you know, about 10 months ago I stepped away from a position as full-time worship pastor. In the process, I've enjoyed a nice LONG break from regularly leading worship…

The longer you serve in ministry, the more time false narratives have to develop.

What happens is you exchange what is REAL for what you WISH WAS REAL.

Before you continue reading this post, hear me out: I'm not looking to destroy your worship leading hopes and dreams BUT I am a realist…

I challenge you to figure out what your set list is communicating before you lead tomorrow…

Leading children in worship can be difficult. It's DIFFERENT than leading in a typical Sunday morning gathering.

If you want to lead worship well, you've got to understand the context that you're leading in…

If you're like most worship leaders, you've probably NEVER had to deal with conflict before... just kidding!

Any time you get a group of people together in any capacity, conflict will eventually arise.

As leaders, we need to know how to deal with it…

What if I told you that the BEST MINISTRY doesn't happen at your church building? Let me explain.

The longer I'm in ministry the more I see the importance of ministry OUTSIDE of Sunday mornings. And, more specifically, OUTSIDE of a church building.

And I'm not JUST talking about evangelism - of course this applies to that as well. But, ministry outside of the church building is equally as important for the members of your church…

I challenge you to pray this prayer before you lead worship tomorrow…

You finish your last song before the message and your pastor walks up on stage. You find your seat in the congregation... now what?

Obviously, you can sit there and listen to your pastor preach along with the rest of your church.

But what if there were other things you could do that would help you lead worship well when you come up to lead that final song or two after your pastor is done?…

One of the keys to good speaking transitions while leading worship is speaking with authority.

People want to follow people who have AUTHORITY: the power to influence others because of a recognized knowledge about something.

But all too often we insert milquetoast, formulaic, noncommittal homilies between our worship songs…

Over the past several years, I've put out a lot of information about worship leading. Like 250,000 words and 150+ videos worth of information!

Not only that, you probably follow several other worship leading resources that put out a similar amount of information.

In the sea of information, it can be hard to apply what you learn.

That's where CONTEXT comes into play…

I challenge you to do a vocal warm up before you lead worship tomorrow…

Most people in the Church are afraid to talk about money... but I'm not!

I think a proper understanding of personal finance is one of the most important keys to your success in professional ministry.

(If you are unable to support yourself and your family financially, you won't be able to serve very long in ministry!)…

Everybody wants a quick tip on how to improve their worship leading.

"I heard David played a secret chord and it pleased the Lord... maybe I need to go download Spencer's free '25 Advanced Guitar Chords' pdf."

"I wonder if there's one simple thing I can do that would take me 10 seconds during my worship leading preparation that would improve my worship leading?"

Those tips are fun. And I talk about them a decent amount…
