Worship School Blog
The blog written by the guys from last session can be found here. Check it out to see more about the students and what they experienced.

If you're here, I can only assume you know there must be more, and you want it.

I assume you want to do more than sing pretty songs for pretty people in pretty churches. I assume you want more than some pathetic and fleeting status as a Christian celebrity. And I assume you are more interested in making Jesus' Name more famous than your own. I assume you want to actually help people know God more fully, love Him more deeply, and experience Him more powerfully! You want to lead people, not just songs. You want to build worshipers, not just bless them. You want to be more than a worship leader--or a lead worshipper for that matter; you want to be a worship pastor.

I want that too, and I want to help you.

We want to give you everything we know, everything we have, and empower you as best as we humbly can. We invite you to come into our community for a season. Come into our homes and our lives and let's walk together. Let's dig deep into God's word, let's let Him dig deep into us, let's pray and fast and stretch and grow. Let's intercede and serve the Bride of Christ. Let's become pastors and priests of worship in our generation.

We'll study everything from the pastoral to the practical, everything from the artistic to the pragmatic. We'll study the Bible--a LOT, and we'll read books, write essays, meet songwriters, learn from pastors, sit under sages, deal with our junk, hone our skills, and all of that probably just in the first couple weeks! We'll lead worship--a LOT, we'll teach, we'll serve, we'll write, we'll create. We'll really do life in community, as a family.

So there it is. We are looking for God's anointed young men who are confident that they want to be more than some pinup Christian artist, but want to make disciples of Jesus, and shift worship and worship leadership as it stands presently.

If that's your heart, come live in my home, come on the road with my band, come be a part of my community and let's have some fun watching iron sharpen iron.

For the glory of Jesus and the establishment of his Kingdom,

Aaron

 

Reccomendations

Daniel Cowan - 2008 student
As cliche as it sounds, being a part of Aaron's worship school was really a life-changing experience. The relationships that were built during those six months are irreplaceable. Spending time hearing teaching from Aaron, and the guys at Grace Fellowship, and other worship leaders and teachers that Aaron introduced us to has really shaped the way I think about God, the way I think about life, and the way I think about worship. It's so cool that Aaron is not just concerned with making worship leaders, but he cares about living the life of a true worshiper. Some of my most outstanding memories were not about worship, but happened just watching Aaron at home, loving his family. The school was so helpful, so encouraging, and so much fun.

Jeremy Zimmerman - 2008 student
Being a part of the worship school was life changing for me. Not only did i learn a lot more about leading worship in the practical sense, but i really learned about God's heart for worship and for his church. If you are leading worship and longing to lead more than just sunday sing-alongs, but you don't know where to start, this is something to seriously consider. I guarantee that if God lays this on your heart and you commit this time to him, it will not return void.

Isaiah Cruz - 2008 student
Aarons Worship school was a program God chose to use in my life to take my desire to lead genuine worship and give it substance and deeper meaning. All glory and honor be to God for using my time with Aaron as a life changing period of time where God spoke to my heart on the matters leading worship and his love for me. God will meet his children where they are, and as worship leaders we have the privilege of resting in HIS leadership as we guide the body of Christ into genuine God-focused worship... I thank Aaron Keyes for taking me under his wing for a time and pouring into me. There was much learning and growing and I will be unpacking all the things God deposited in my heart at the school for a long, long time.
