Welcome to part five of my interview series with Sojourn worship leader Lorie King, “Why Do Worship Leaders Do That?” Each week we discuss the Top Ten Pet Peeves that people express against worship leaders in churches around the world.
This week, the topic is “Why Can’t Worship Leaders Sing Well?” In this short audio interview, I ask Lorie for her perspective on these oft-cited complaints:
- When the worship leader doesn’t know the lyrics.
- When worship leaders run words together.
- When the worship leaders put their own spin on simple, common words.
- The worship team repeats the same line in a song 3.6 million times.
- The worship leader sings so high that we can’t sing along
