Week 2: Embracing Change

 “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.” – Hebrews 13:8 (CSB)

Change can feel unsettling, but it also opens doors for God to work in new and surprising ways. While our methods, team members, or circumstances might shift, our unchanging Saviour is always with us, guiding us. In worship, embracing change means being willing to adapt while staying rooted in the unchanging truth of God’s Word.

As a worship team, it’s vital to approach change with open hearts and minds, trusting that God is using it to grow and strengthen us. This week, let’s focus on welcoming change as part of God’s plan for renewal.

For musicians, embracing change might mean adapting to new songs, arrangements, or team dynamics. Instead of resisting, consider how these shifts challenge you to grow musically and spiritually. A fresh arrangement or new style may be just what God uses to sharpen your skills and draw you closer to Him.

For the tech team, change often involves learning new technology, updating workflows, or troubleshooting unexpected issues. It’s easy to become frustrated, but these moments are opportunities to trust God and rely on His wisdom. Approach every change with curiosity, seeking how you can use it to create a better worship experience for the congregation.

  1. Personal Reflection: Identify one recent change in your life or team and ask God to help you embrace it with faith.

  2. Team Reflection: Be proactive in discussing changes with team mates and approach them with a positive attitude.

  3. Sunday Preparation: If changes occur on Sunday, focus on how they can be an opportunity to serve better and glorify God.
