Worship Study: Planning Template
Step 1:
Who – Determine your audience. For the purposes of this course, you do not need to actually present the devotionals. However, you should think through areas in your ministry where it is appropriate to share a devotional. For example, if you are a worship leader or aspiring worship leader, it would be appropriate to tailor your devotionals toward your worship team members. If you serve with the student ministry at your church, you might gear your devotionals to teenagers. Determine the most fitting audience for your devotionals.

Step 2:
Why – Explain why it is important for your chosen audience to understand the principles of worship. What are the current circumstances they may be facing? What truths do they need to hear? What are the cultural factors within the ministry and within your geographic region that necessitate this study?
It is important for teenagers in the student ministry to understand the principles of worship. Teenagers are in a formative stage of life where their values, identity, and spiritual habits are being shaped. Many are facing challenges such as peer pressure, social media influence, questions about their self-worth, and academic stress. Today’s culture often pushes them to focus on themselves and seek quick satisfaction. Therefore, they need to hear that worship is not just about singing songs at church. Instead, it is about living every day in a way that honors God. When teens understand worship as a lifestyle, it helps them grow in their faith. This also helps them develop spiritual maturity. Cultural trends within our region often value image over authenticity. Thus, it is important they learn that true worship comes from a real, personal relationship with God.
