I am so happy to hear that I am helping you! TGBTG! 🥰. There is so much that goes on to have a successful department and it starts with the leader. I pray blessings upon your department. You shall do well in Jesus name!🙏🏽🙏🏽
Thank you so much for this. My pastor asked me to be the choir director. And this is so knew to me. I have been a Praise team leader for a while. I'm surprised I was chosen to do this, but I trust my leader. And this video is a God sent!! I thank the Lord! Please keep teaching!
Thank you so much for this video, I've been in a choir my whole life with my family! We've been singing together since we were kids. My aunt is the director! I saw her for many of years. My aunt is a very anointed director! Well this is my first time being a director and I really love your video and I know it's only from God so thank you for being obedient with making it! I am looking forward to your next video!
Chiquista Ash Thank you so much! That is why I do it, to help others surpass me. I hope you find the other videos helpful on your learning journey. Blessings!!😊

Thank you so much and blessings to you as well!😊 I am glad to help. Just apply the principles with pray and you will grow in knowledge and understanding just like I did. Blessings!!!😊
❤really enjoyed hearing for I was asked to direct the children and youth choir. I don’t know keys nor really carry a lovely tune and thus so far I’m walking in this in Jesus name amen. Looking forward to hearing more of your videos. Thank you
kathleen callender the first thing to do is to pray for them. Secondly Have you tried speaking to them alone about your concerns? How they are approached may be part of the issue. Just a thought.
Thank you so much. I am looking forward to the next post. I enjoy everything about directing and love receiving tips on how I can better train these young voices I work with. I'm sharing and liking your post. Excited!!😄💖
Awww! That is why I do what I do! You really blessed my ❤️! Check out each of them and if there is a topic you would like discussed, let me know. Blessings to you!
Welcome!!! thank you for subscribing to my channel!! I am thankful you enjoyed the video. if you have a show you would like for me to do, leave a comment. Blessings!!!
Thank you, I am new at this and am trying to get my foundation on point. God is leading me to do this but I want to do the best that I can so God has something to work with.
Lakingdria Grandison That is so admirable of you. I can tell you of a surety that your foundation is paramount to your success. It will keep you level and help prevent distractions. I hope the things I have learned over these past 44 years (I started directing/teaching at 9 years old) will prove to be helpful on your musical journey to excellence!!
Best Directress2 Amen! I Absolutely will do that. I appreciate your commonsense and your godly approach. Holiness and consecration are critical, if you’re called to serve Him in music ministry, but It’s so uncommon these days, so your voice is important. Holding you up in prayer. Please let me know if you do a workshop. I’m in the south burbs. Thx again!
This is a great video with great information. I am a new director and follow some of what you've instructed but I need help with other things. Thank you so much!
I agree with you and when I was asked to direct the Youth Choir by pastor Marvin Cherry at Hightown Church of God, I was living the life pleasing to God. I was not sexually active with anyone and I was praying and communicating with God and reading my Bible at home living in Landmark Apartments. That pastor told me that the Holyghost told him to choose me then he chose his sister Tisha to assist me but I don't believe that the Holyghost told him to ask her to assist me. I had evening shift work schedule so I turned it down the first time. I GAVE UP THE CHOIR DIRECTOR POSITION BECAUSE THE YOUTH BEHAVE LIKE THEY WANTED TISHA AND THEY DIDN'T RESPECT ME. I WAS GODLY AND NICE TOWARDS THEM. I also didn't believe that I needed to be the choir director because I didn't take the training to become one. I was enthusiastic about directing them. There was a problem with some of the Youth favoring their own family named Latisha Cherry Hamblett to direct them who doesn't have the gift to sing at all.
Hello! I am so sorry that you experienced that. Sometimes that happens. Those are the trials of being a leader. The next time an opportunity comes, pray immediately and ask the Holy Ghost for guidance. In leadership you are going to have situations like this and God will prove to everyone that He has chosen you. It sounds like you have the gift but need to be trained on the people management side which is just as important as the talent. Praying that the Lord gives you the strength to understand the assignment and execute it with Holy Ghost boldness!!💯💯. Thank you so much for your comment and God bless you the more!🙏🏽🙂
Hi . I know that God has called me to direct . My shyness does gets into my way . I don't have much music skills and I want God to fill in where I lack . How do I build up my confidence according to the Bible ?
@@jerrynelson6308 Thanks for your comment. The Holy Ghost will give you the boldness. Part of your shyness is your unfamiliarity with music. Directing is not about movements per se, but it is about giving clear directions. 1. You can start by knowing the song(s) you wish to direct (know every word, the format of the song). Doing this will add to your confidence supported by prayer. 2. Develop a way of communicating the direction you want the choir to go. The simpler the better. 3. Remember this is not about you it’s about giving glory to God. 🙂 Through prayer your skillset will grow. Exercise patience as God develops you. It’s more to it but the points above will get you started. Hope this helps!🙂
I’m Julius, minister of music musician in my church Macedonia, I had Adult choir but stop coming to choir rehearsal on the weekend, now I’m minister of music leading worship songs
Thank you woman of God. I am getting ready to be the choir director for a children's choir. Does this apply to the children too? I appreciate these tips.
@@jerrynelson6308 Hello! I am so sorry for the lateness!! This question just popped up😩😩😩 Actually I don’t know if any specific training on directing except for university training, which is call conducting 101. Is not like Gospel choir which is more emotional.
Choirs are not the same. Most of them have gone to the Praise team workship experience. Your thoughts? I don't even think they make Choir robes anymore 😕
Hello! Choirs are still in motion. In many churches they are much smaller almost the size of a praise team (6-15)🙂. Choir robes are still being made but not in abundance. Uniforms seem to be more suitable for this season. Hope this helps!!
Actually working with a small choir is the best training ground. It takes some work on yourself first and then implement it. Don’t worry! We are here to help!
Your amazing. Thank God for you. So much valuable information ❤
Hi, Shay from Chicago, I’m a choir director and thank you for this video!

Hi what happens when you have a choir leader who really do not want to listen

Thank you woman of God. I am getting ready to be the choir director for a children's choir. Does this apply to the children too? I appreciate these tips.
Yes you can as there are some children that are advanced🥰. But feel free to tailor the tips for you unique choir. So glad to help!
I really would like to know the kind of gestures that non classical choir directors do. How you deal with fast songs ...
Hi- That’s a great question! I will cover that when the classes start back in March!
Thanks a lot ma
