About the program
Throughout Worship Leadership at Liberty University , you will build foundational knowledge in music by studying topics like commercial music theory, conducting, and music arrangement. As a worship leader, you often need to be proficient in more than one instrument to lead your team. Therefore, you will have the opportunity to study a primary and secondary instrument.
You will also study the fundamentals of audio engineering, lighting, and staging as well as leadership within the church. A great benefit of this program is the hands-on experience you will gain by participating in our School of Music worship ensembles, completing practicums, and working with a church or ministry through an internship.
At Liberty, we are committed to providing you with the training you need to reach your full leadership potential in the area of worship. If you choose to pursue our Bachelor of Music degree program, you will study with respected musicians and worship leaders who have served in churches around the nation.
