Welcome to the second installment of our “Why Do Worship Leaders Do That?” series, examining the top ten pet peeves that people hold against worship leaders around the world. This top ten list is taken from informal blog polling by ragamuffinsoul.com, tabulated into the top ten by churchrelevance.com.

- engage in mini-sermons
- talk between every song
- use the same catch-phrases every week
- share his personal feelings

It’s been pointed out to me that the picture above (which was taken by Dan Canales) looks as if I was using it to illustrate the point or show you a worship leader that is talking too much.
That’s actually Lorie King, and she’s singing. I chose the picture because she’s the interviewee. I can assure you that she doesn’t talk too much when leading worship. As far as whether that’s true in other settings, ask me no questions and I’ll tell you no lies.
