 Praise & Worship
The
praise and worship ministry at RIFC presents an exciting challenge.
Just as RIFC as a whole is a new church seeking the Lord for
direction in all areas, the praise and worship ministry has been
seeking the Lord for direction on exactly how to build a praise
and worship ministry from the ground up.
The praise and worship ministry is a whole lot more than just a
group of talented musicians leading people in singing songs. It’s
easy for talented musicians to perform songs well and get their
audience “into” their performance. An effective praise and worship
ministry draws the audience’s attention to someone other then
themselves. The purpose of the praise and worship ministry is to
lead God’s people into His presence. It is only in His presence that
we find direction, answers, healing and wholeness.
To successfully fulfill this calling, the praise and worship
ministry is taking great care in building the house right. It’s not
enough to just have people with musical talent. The praise and
worship ministry needs people blessed with musical talent and called
by God to that ministry. A process has been developed to make sure
this is true for every member of the team. First every potential
member has an audition and an interview. The audition shows us if
God has blessed the person with musical talent and the interview
gives us the opportunity to get to know the person’s heart and
personal vision. This is followed by a short time of training. The
Bible says, “Can two walk together, unless they are agreed?” Amos
3:3 The purpose of the training is to let new members know what we
believe about praise and worship, what the job of each member of the
praise team is and what is expected out of all members. Finally,
there is a time for all members to just practice with the praise
team before actually ministering with the team.
These requirements aren’t in place for the purpose of making it hard
to join the praise team. They are there for the sole purpose of
insuring any member of the praise team is there because God has
called them to be there. We believe a person who is truly called to
the ministry will do what’s necessary to be properly prepared to
minister.
So, is God calling you to take up the challenge? If so, let’s talk.
