Worship Together
Two songs and some quiet, which is more than most groups ever do
Leader Context
Worship is one of the simplest ways to realign your heart with God’s. In a living room, it can also feel unfamiliar or a little intimidating.
That is fine. The goal is not a perfect moment. It is a shared one.
It will feel new, so name that out loud. Most groups have never worshiped together. Acknowledge the awkwardness and then invite people in. Naming it takes most of the weirdness out of the room.
Keep it simple. You do not want a guitar or a setlist. A YouTube video or a Spotify playlist is enough. One or two songs. Pick something your group might know from Sundays, or something that connects to the current series.
Read to your group
Worship is one of the ways we say thank you to God and remind ourselves who he is. Tonight we just want to take a few minutes to do that together.
We are going to play a couple of songs. You do not have to sing. Just be here.
Questions
After the song
Give people ten seconds of quiet before you ask anything.
What did you notice or connect with in that song?
Did any lyrics stand out or feel personal to you right now?
Next Steps for Leaders
- A sample flow that works: set the tone, play one or two songs with the lyrics on screen, sit in quiet, ask the two questions, close in prayer.
- Songs groups have used: “Gratitude” by Brandon Lake, “Firm Foundation (He Won’t)” by Cody Carnes, “What a Beautiful Name” by Hillsong Worship.
- Make a playlist and share it during the week if the group responds well.
- Tag someone else in. If you have someone musical in the group, ask them to lead it next time.
- Make it a rhythm. Once a month or once a series, not once a year.
