How to change the music in your church

Let’s stay with the music example. There are a thousand tiny steps you can take.

• Introduce one new song.
• Introduce guitar on one song.
• Introduce subtle drums on one song. Make sure they are subtle. Read: not loud.
• Introduce backing tracks on one song. (More on this later.) http://www.worshipbackingband.com/
• Try two songs.
• Try a set.
• Jazz up some old hymns.
• Push the edge just a bit.
• Back off.
• Push the edge just a bit more.
• Talk. Get feedback. Pray. Rinse. Repeat.

We will talk in detail about this in the chapter on music, but I think you get the idea.
