How to Teach a Congregational Class or Workshop: Part I
Have you ever considered teaching a class or workshop?
Some of you may already do this - at a community music school, K-12 school, or local college or university. But, have you ever considered teaching members of your congregation?
Short-term classes, workshops, and mini-series are a great way to teach church members about music, worship, denominational history, etc. and help build a sense of community among the congregation.
Plus, if you plan a class that's several weeks long and happens to meet on Sundays, you may also (inadvertently) encourage regular attendance in worship.
If you love to read, research, and teach and you have curious congregation members who love to learn, this post is for you. Here's what you need to know:
