Worship Leader Tip: Be Authentic and Admit Your Mistakes

Worshipers can smell a phony from a mile away. That's why when I make a mistake that even the worshipers couldn't ignore, I point it out, laugh about it, and ask for a do over. I've been surprised at the graciousness people give. Worshipers want to know if you are authentic. They only want the real deal. Fake and polished are out. Real and raw are in.

And now for your listening pleasure, a mistake just about every worship leader has made...forgetting to take off or put the capo on your guitar - leaving your band in the dust. Make sure you listen to the audio in following link (click the play button). Wait for the band to enter. Wait for it. Wait for it...

Simply authentic.
