Tired of being the bad guy?


One of the necessities of ministry is having to meet with and audition people of varying skill levels. When those you audition are talented it's a joy, but if they are not, there is nothing worse than having to tell someone that they don't have what it takes. The sad look in their face when you have to say I'm sorry, it's really something that I had come to dread over my years of ministry. One Sunday morning I was sharing these feelings with a group of guys in my band, most of which are music teachers, and it was from that conversation that we developed the audition system that I use to this day. No longer will you have to be the bad guy and tell someone that they can't cut it. If you're curious this information sheet can be found within the "Featured Products" tab, located within the Hub at MinistryHub.com. If you haven't created your FREE account yet, you better get to it. Not only can you find great info like how to audition, but you can also find FREE PowerPoint Slides as well.

Another great resource for worship leaders that I stumbled upon can be found at Resonate a blog written by Scot Longyear. I found the article to be most helpful!
