Song Cycle
How to Simplify Worship Planning &
Re-engage Your Church
Worship leaders and teams spend countless hours and and significant dollars on tools and training events to create awesome worship services. But there's one tool that most worship leaders fail to think about: the song list. Every church has one.
The typical church's master song list is often a "monster list." It contains hundreds of songs: the songs the church currently sings, used to sing, and a bunch they've forgotten.

REVIEWS FOR THE SONGCYCLE
5 OUT OF 5 STAR REVIEW ON AMAZON: INCREDIBLE RESOURCE FOR WORSHIP LEADERS
Being a relatively new worship leader, I've been slowly developing my own "song cycle system" through trial and error. Thankfully, Jon has produced an excellent, well-developed, and time-tested approach to worship set list selection and rotation.
My guess is that even seasoned worship leaders will gain useful insights from Jon's system.
I love Jon's conversational writing style, and I even laughed aloud a few times due to his fun anecdotes. There is a lot of meat packed into this guide - Jon doesn't just throw his system at you and tell you how to implement it. Instead he deliberately highlights the need for such a system and thoroughly explains each component.
As I write this review, I have all my binders of chord charts out and strewn across the floor as I eagerly begin to implement the SongCycle.
I look forward to seeing how the Lord will use it and pray that our worship time is enriched as a result.

5 OUT OF 5 STAR REVIEW ON AMAZON: SUPRISINGLY FUNNY (HELPFUL AS EXPECTED)
I ran across this book by accident while looking for resources to help with my process of selecting and introducing new music for worship. I fully expected this book to be a good resource with a textbook like feel. To my delight I found that I was quickly smirking, chuckling and finally bursting out with honest laugh-out-loud laughter. Jon has an excellent writing style full of whit that engages readers and encourages a full read through of the material. This is NOT a boring read.
The SongCycle is truly an excellent resource for worship leaders desperate to get a grasp on their ever expanding music catalogs. Jon also provides wisdom and insight in areas that often trouble worship leaders such as encouraging congregations to engage in worship and the introduction of new music while honoring past classics. When i finished SongCycle I felt as if I had been in an concentrated micro-mentoring session with this experience worship pastor.
I fully intend to implement the principles behind the SongCycle system into the way I schedule worship songs and introduce new material.
Thank you Jon for writing this book!
