If communion is the most tangible moment with God in your serviceâŚ
why does it sometimes feel like the quickest?
Maybe itâs not a transition.
Maybe itâs the headliner.
The moment everything is building toward⌠not something we rush to fit into the service order.
Thereâs something powerful about treating it like âthe best for last.â
Slowing the room down. Letting people actually sit in it.
This perspective from @mwsmithofficial really challenges service planning.
Celebrating all the incredible moms đ
"She is clothed with strength and dignity; she can laugh at the days to come. Her children arise and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her." - Proverbs 31:25,28
Weâve built services that flow⌠but rarely stop.
Somewhere along the way, we got uncomfortable with silence.
Every gap needs a pad, a loop, a transition.
But what if the moment people actually need⌠is stillness?
No band. No talking. No rush. Just space.
That tension in the room where nobody moves⌠that might be the point.
@mwsmithofficial 's new song âHymn For Communionâ leans into that kind of moment.
Go stream it now and consider leading it at your next communion service.
Worship leaders donât just fill time⌠we pastor moments.
Communion is one of the most important ones we get to lead. And if weâre honest, itâs easy to let it become something we just âfit inâ instead of something we truly lead with intention.
Slowing down might feel uncomfortable at first, but that space is often where God does the deepest work.
This was a needed reminder from @mwsmithofficial
When youâre introducing a new song, it can be hard to know if itâs actually connecting.
We look for raised hands, energy in the room, comments after service⌠all that stuff.
But itâs actually way simpler than that.
Can your church sing it?
After youâve given them a few chances, try this from Tyler Roberts at Red Rocks Worship⌠back off the mic and let the room carry it.
If they can sing it, itâs landing. If they canât, it might be back to the drawing board.
Curious, whatâs worked for you when introducing new songs?

Most of the time, the disconnect isnât the new song⌠itâs the setup.
We assume people know what we know.
But they donât live in this world like we do.
A little context goes a long way. Not a speech - just enough to help people step into what theyâre about to sing.
Itâs crazy how fast a room can connect when they actually understand whatâs coming out of their mouth.
Curious how you handle this.
Do you set up songs, or just jump in and go for it?

Some songs donât come from a writing roomâŚthey come from real life.
âThe Lord Is With Meâ is one of those songs. It came out of a Parkinsonâs diagnosis, hard conversations, and just trying to hold onto the truth that Godâs still there in it.
It was written for people walking through stuff⌠not around it.
