How can you pursue spiritual depth and practical skill with your entire youth worship team?  Magnify! It is a music camp unlike any other, providing Bible-based and Christ-centered worship instruction for church leaders of the future. 

Our team of worship leaders, pastors and youth pastors will offer practical skill training for leading worship, and will also teach master classes in:: vocal, guitar, bass, drums, keyboards, using technology in worship, understanding chart reading and more... all the while focusing on the 5 most important parts of leading worship:
1.  The Heart
2.  The Heart
3.  The Heart
4.  The Heart
5.  And lastly THE HEART!  :)
