Jon Tyner, music minister at Olive Baptist Church, will lead a unique choir workshop on Wednesday, March 2nd for those who register for ReFOCUS. You will get to watch Jon in action live as he rehearses his large and amazing worship choir at Olive!

Feat. Dwayne Moore and Scot Longyear
>Dwayne will teach on how a lifestyle of prayer affects our personal worship and worship leading from his new book, HE. WE. THEY. He will also teach a simple but profound approach we can take to daily personal prayer and praise.
>Scot will teach on the topic of hope--why hope matters when we worship God and how we can always have hope no matter what our circumstances may be

Feat. Constance Cherry , Charles Billingsley & Vernon Whaley
>Constance's exact topic is TBA.
>Charles will share about challenges & joys he's experienced in ministry and in leading others in worship. He will also sing and lead us in moments of praise.
>Dr. Whaley will talk about what true worship is, why worship leaders must have a heart of worship, and practical ways we can develop it.

Led by Stephen Moore, this workshop will be filled with practical, hands-on tips. Stephen was the lead vocalist for Carrollton, writing & co-writing several of the popular songs the group recorded. You will get to experience actually working on a song idea together during this workshop. It will be available live online via Zoom for those who registered for ReFOCUS.

Feat. David Edwards and Shuan Pillay
>David will, in part, speak on performance-focused bands vs. authentic platform leadership
>Shaun Pillay will speak about the relationship of missions and music and why worship leaders should think beyond just ourselves and our concerns

Feat. Dwayne Moore and Tasha Layton (live concert)
>Dwayne will speak on the importance of accuracy in the lyrics we sing and in our understanding of who God is--especially if we lead others in worship.
>Tasha Layton will climax the retreat with a concert of praise. We plan to have a mass choir (some live, in-person and some pre-recorded) that will join her for her most popular song, Look What You've Done. (We hope your choir can participate in the pre-recording that we will play when she does that song! It's gonna be awesome to see choirs from around the world singing together!)
