Worship Leader Training

We’re imagining networks hundreds of years down the road, renewing our vision by considering the effect that the decisions of today’s worshiping generation will have on the Church to come. We’re deepening our thinking, singing from a vibrant center, and leading with the passionate zeal of today – infused with the wisdom and energies of the past.

The Institute Of Contemporary & Emerging Worship Studies (ICEWS) has just been born at St. Stephen’s University in New Brunswick, Canada. The ICEWS is designed to engage an international base of today’s current and creative worship leaders in a vibrant conversation on contemporary and emerging worship leadership, and at the same time offer a variety of university-level programs, led by a team of influential worship leaders and scholars, suited to lead worshipers in various stages of their leadership journey.

In partnership with SSU ICEWS is now offering certificate, diploma and Master’s degree programs in Worship Leadership & Spiritual Formation, all designed to offer today’s contemporary worship leader an opportunity to advance their academic/practical study, widen their historical/theological perspective and hone their skills in effective worship leadership within 21st century culture.

Each level is uniquely designed to cater to the formation needs of various types of worship leaders, and the course work is designed to further the building of the present and emerging Church in worship, by reinvesting the present with the riches of the past, to call us forward into the future.
