The worship arts director will be the “producer” of each worship service and other special programs at Living Way.
Although the lead pastors are the “directors” in terms of setting the theme and overall direction of each service, the worship arts director will oversee and coordinate all of the logistic, technological, and musical details that a service encompasses. This is not done for the sake of production itself, but to lead people to encounter the greatness of God in Christ Jesus through the worship arts. The worship arts director must be a self-starting leader who can develop and communicate a vision in a way that inspires those around him to join in the pursuit and execution of that vision.
