This fall is looking pretty busy, and I'm looking to work on some other creative projects, so I'm canceling the Sep/Oct trainings to give myself some margin to hit other things I need to work on. November 18 Intro to Piano is still planned. Dec will be TBD. - Zac

Join me this Thursday, August 28 at 2 pm CST, 3 pm EST at StreamsCommunity.org for a LIVE TRAINING on WORSHIP MINISTRY BUDGETING!

Learn how to get the most of out of your limited worship budget, and how to plan strategically to move your mission forward over multiple years. It may not seem exciting, but it can be really fun, and it's a critically important skill when worship ministry is so technology-intensive.

Join me August 28 and bring your questions!

The next live training was scheduled for August 19, but due to a conflict, I'm bumping it back to August 28. Same time, 2 pm CST, 3 pm EST at StreamsCommunity.org!

This will be about budgeting - how to get the most of out of your limited worship budget, and how to plan strategically to move your mission forward over multiple years. It may not seem exciting, but it can be really fun, and it's a critically important skill when worship ministry is so technology-intensive.

Join me August 28 and bring your questions!

If you didn't see the video on YouTube, check out what Joe Cuyar had to say about using Practice to Platform with his students:

03/17/2025

I met Joe at a regional worship conference in Massachusetts hosted by Next Level Worship. He heads up Worship Cooperative (worshipcooperative.com), which does great work bringing churches together for songwriting, worship nights, and more.

Joe also runs a worship ministry school to develop worship musicians, and he has been using Practice to Platform with his students using a group plan.
