3 ways for you to develop your worship with Elim Sound
Elim Sound's Sam Blake has some simple ways to improve and develop your worship
1. LISTEN
Elim Sound’s latest album features live worship from the Elim Leaders Summit in May. It includes songs recorded during lockdown and sung live at the event. “We record everything, listen back and ask ourselves which moments were where we sensed God, then work on those for the album,” says Sam Blake.
2. ATTEND
The Elim Sound Worship Conference takes place in November. It’s an ideal place for worship leaders, singers, musicians, tech teams and anyone passionate about worship to be equipped and encounter God. Visit elimsound.co.uk/conference for more details.
3. TRAIN
Want some in-depth worship ministry training? The Elim Sound School of Worship starts each January and offers a one-year course including residentials, one-to-one coaching and webinars. “We’ve had everyone from worship leaders and pastors to people aspiring to join a worship team sign up,” says Sam.

Trends emerging in worship music
Post-pandemic, Sam has noticed a number of trends emerging in worship music.
“We’ve seen more songs of lament and people being real with God. They’re more down to earth, saying things like ‘whether you heal me or whether you don’t I’m still going to worship’.
We’re also seeing longer songs coming from places like Elevation and Maverick City that are seven or nine minutes long and with different structures to typical verse-chorus songs.
We’re in a season of transition and change and it’s good to bring something fresh, but in doing so let’s also hold on to the familiar choruses and hymns that help give a full expression of worship.”
