Vocalist: Why You Should Lose the Music Stand...

By Jon Nicol

Tweak #44: Practice singing without your music stand.

Why?

• If it’s there, you’ll look at it. So lose it.

• You probably know the songs better than you think.

• You’ll be amazed at the confidence memorization brings.

• And the people you’re leading and modeling worship for will respond better. They may not know it or can articulate it, but they’ll know something is different, and for the better.

And don't miss Jon's upcoming two part article on memorization WorshipMinistry.com, "Kick Your Music Stand to the Curb". It should be posting any day now...
