We often speak of the need for greater collaboration between ministers and musicians, but how might such a relationship actually work? In this workshop we'll explore the roles of the parish minister and musician, looking honestly at areas of potential conflict between the two as well as celebrating the rich, rewarding partnership that is possible when they engage in a truly shared ministry.
Topics covered include: ego and worship leadership; full integration of music into the worship planning process; theological development for church musicians (and the minister's role in making it happen); and music, worship and anti-racist, multicultural identity. And rest assured, there will be quite a bit of singing, too!Chapters are encouraged to invite musicians to attend and participate.
