Photo and video by Willard Crigler – Here’s a 30 second clip from my Praise & Harmony Workshop with the Normandie Church in Los Angeles, California. The reason a cappella congregational singing is fabulous stems from the fact that it only works well when everyone is involved; to do it well demands participation. Isn’t worship [...]
Pictured: Mark Manassee, Preaching Minister for Culver Palms. We were blessed by a great experience with the Culver Palms congregation. In addition to a Praise & Harmony emphasis, we enjoyed a Big Greek Fat Feast with Alexander and Eleni Mellirrytos hosting. I hope to secure more photos later.
Here’s a video of me leading congregational singing along with Acappella on our tenth anniversary in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Wow – It’s hard to believe that our tenth anniversary was twenty years ago! I sure hope you can join us for our 30th Anniversary, June 30 – July 3 in Nashville, TN at Lipscomb University. There [...]
Photo by Julie Rideout – The churches who gain the most from Praise & Harmony Workshops are the ones who focus on the assigned preparatory homework leading up to the Workshop. The Meadowlark congregation in Fort Collins, Colorado, amazed us by how prepared they were. Because of the time they invested in their singing sessions [...]

Enthusiastic worship is powerfully contagious – – which is exactly why we need passionate leaders. The church suffers when leaders fail to model vibrant worship, but [...]
In response to the article Questioning The Decline, regarding the recent rapid decline in the church, I thought it would be helpful to address potential solutions in a spirit of love and cooperation. After all, the church was born at the price of the blood of God’s Son – – sealing her value as inestimable. [...]
According to a recent article in The Christian Chronicle, churches of Christ have declined by 102,000 members over the course of only eight years. This alarming statistic should provide more than adequate motivation for leaders to examine the causes of such an unfortunate defection. There is no doubt that there are a number of [...]
I’m convinced that a cappella congregational singing is the best approach for this reason: It only works well when everyone is involved. Considering how the overwhelming success of movies, sports and music has created a culture of spectators, it’s no surprise that many Christians have begun to approach Sunday mornings in the same way – [...]

Martinez is definitely serious about worship. We enjoyed a wonderful Praise & Harmony weekend, hosted by this vibrant congregation. Normally, during the course of my workshops, I am lamenting the fact that most churches fail to invest in their song leaders (worship leaders) and place worship renewal as a very low priority.
