Thoughts from the Prodigal Worship Conference

Today, Ken and I are at the Prodigal Worship Conference. I wanted to shared some notes and thoughts as heard or overheard.

The first keynote speaker is Mike Slaughter. He shared the five elements of worship planning:
1. MESSAGE: need, theme, desired outcome
2. MEDIUM: space, design
3. MYSTERY: sacraments, mystery of God's presence, silence, experiential
4. MUSIC: music has a connection that's deeper than our mind, but it can't be mindless, music cannot be separated from life experience, use of secular music, style is important, incorporating music and other mediums
5. MISSION: calling people to participate in transformation

to be continued...
