Why Your Church Should Send At Least One Person to Worship 4:24 On January 30-31, 2026, the SCBO will be partnering again with Cedarville University to host Worship 4:24 on cam- pus at Cedarville. I’m bringing people from my worship team, and encouraging all of our churches to send at least one person from their worship team. Here’s why: By Zac James, worship consultant Paul Baloche and Meredith Andrews -
Exposure to new things to broaden your horizons - If it’s your first time, Worship 4:24 will expose you to new ideas. I am confident that you will find one or two that you can use to move ministry forward in your local context. Lead pastors: Understand your worship leader and speak their language - If you want to start learning what makes a great wor- ship ministry tick, join us at Worship 4:24. It will help you lead your staff and coach your worship leader better. We have breakouts specifically for pastors and worship leaders to learn how to work well to- gether. Vendors who can enhance the ministry of your church - You’ll meet a ton of vendors who can sell your church what you need, but just as important, they can pro- vide the expertise to guide you through the process of what to purchase, how to integrate it into your ex- isting setup, and best practices for using it. Affordable compared to most national conferences - SCBO churches can use the code “SCBO2026” to get 10% off their tickets this year! Worship 4:24 is supported by your Cooperative Program giving. Worth it, even if you can only come on Saturday - Come both days if you can, but you will still get a ton of value because all of the breakout sessions are available on Saturday! It’s worth the $70 + gas to come for one day. You’ll be done by 4 pm and home in time to put the kids to bed. God might call one of your students into worship ministry - The cost for students is ($35-45/student), so if you have students who are on your worship team or are trying to join the worship team, bring them with you. Consider encouraging your high school students to attend Weekend of Worship on Thursday evening, January 25, right before the full conference! What are you waiting for? Register your team at worship424.com today, and I’ll see you there!
This year, we will be led in worship by Paul Baloche, Meredith Andrews, and his team! Paul is a worship ministry legend, with a long legacy of training, pasto-
ral leadership, and songwriting. Sing in the choir, if you want! -
All attendees have the option of joining the Friday Night of Worship choir. It’s an incredible experience to share the platform with 100+ other vocalists and these incredible artists. Excellent worship modeled – catch the vision for your church - Without a vision of excellence, worship teams often struggle to know what to strive for. When you take your team to Worship 4:24, they will see an incredible example of what worship looks like when it’s done with musical excellence, technical proficiency, spiri - tual maturity, and passion in the Holy Spirit. Worshipping with other worship leaders and teams - Do you feel burnt out or empty? Sometimes, worship leaders burn out in churches where worship is dry and people barely sing, let alone engage physically in worship. Worship leaders need to experience the joy of genuine worship so they can bring renewed passion to worship every Sunday. Opportunities to receive counseling - This year, we are offering a new opportunity at Wor - ship 4:24. Registered attendees will receive an email in January to register for a free counseling session on a first-come, first-served basis. Those in worship ministry struggling with significant church hurt, family issues, painful loss, and more, will be able to sched- ule a 45-minute session with biblical counselors who can start the journey to healing. Space will be limited this year as we gauge interest. 100 breakout sessions from world-class trainers - On Saturday, you’ll get to pick four breakout ses- sions to attend. Think of it as a customized training schedule to fit your unique needs as a leader and as a church. No matter what style of worship your church has, we have a breakout for you. You can see the list of breakout sessions at worship424.com.
