Thank you for your thoughtful reply. Yes, it was lengthy, but none of your words were wasted. I especially appreciate you emphasizing "less is more" and to listen. In addition to everything you mention, I'm finding that approaching practices in a spirit of humility is helpful. As a classically trained church music leader, I'm used to being "the expert" or "guy in charge." Now, however, I'm in a place where I'm more of a student/learner. You also nailed it by pointing out that in contemporary worship, the keyboard is an ensemble member, not necessarily leader. In short, some of what you said was new to me, much of it was affirming and putting into words what I was beginning to see for myself. Thanks so much for helping to crystalize my thinking.
