Faith Worship Arts
Is your worship team finding its voice—or just echoing someone else’s? In this episode, we sit down with John Dreher of Faith Worship Arts to explore the delicate balance between inspiration and imitation in modern worship culture.
John shares how the diverse, multi-generational team at their church built a worship culture that reflects their community, not someone else’s. And here’s the twist: it’s not wrong to include elements of churches like Bethel or Elevation—if that sound genuinely reflects a part of your church. But when it becomes the whole identity, something crucial gets lost.
Today we discuss:
-
How copying others can unintentionally flatten your team’s sound
-
Practical steps to develop your church’s unique worship expression
-
Why humility, curiosity, and collaboration are key to helping your worship team fulfill its full potential.
If you’re ready for your worship team to move towards a more authentic sound—this episode is for you.
About Faith Worship Arts
Faith Worship Arts is the vibrant worship movement of Faith Assembly in Orlando, Florida. Under the leadership of Pastor John Dreher, this collective brings together a diverse group of musicians and creatives. Their mission? To create worship experiences that resonate with the heart of their community. By blending various musical styles, they aim to reflect the rich tapestry of cultures and generations within their congregation. It’s not just about music; it’s about creating a sound that truly represents their church family.
The Sound of Their Community
What sets Faith Worship Arts apart is their commitment to authenticity. Instead of exclusively recreating popular worship trends, they focus on the unique voices within their own community. That doesn’t mean the sound of Faith Worship Arts doesn’t contain influences from other communities. Their music seamlessly weaves together elements of gospel, contemporary Christian music, and other genres. This approach ensures that their worship isn’t just heard—it’s felt deeply by those who participate. It’s a sound born from genuine relationships and shared experiences.
