- Abstract
- Worship directors in Reformed churches are expected to be musicians, pastors, administrators, and theologians, and they serve in the midst of debated issues such as traditional versus contemporary worship. However, it is unclear how and where they are being equipped. The purpose of this study was to explore how career worship directors became equipped for long-term vocational worship ministry in the Reformed church. The study utilized a qualitative design using semi-structured interviews with ten worship directors, analyzed in a constant comparative method. The research explored experiences from childhood through the early years of church work that developed their musicality, spiritual formation, leadership skills, and Reformed theology of worship. This study concluded that the local church, academic institutions with quality music programs, and Reformed academic institutions, can have a significant influence in the development of worship directors in Reformed churches.
