Confidently Lead God's People in Worship
July 12-17, 2026 | Wilburton, OK
Practical training for song worship leaders and worshippers who want to offer the Lord their thoughtful best.
Distraction Is The Enemy Of Worship
When we gather to sing, our minds and hearts should be fully focused on praising God and encouraging one another. However, distraction is the enemy of worship. When a song leader struggles to find the pitch, loses the tempo, or when a worshipper feels completely lost looking at the musical staff, our focus shifts from the Creator to the mechanics of the song. Fear and uncertainty take the place of heartfelt praise.
That is why the R.J. Stevens Singing School exists. By mastering the fundamentals of a cappella worship, we eliminate those distractions. We provide hands-on, practical training so that you can step up to the podium, or sit in the pew, fully equipped to give the Lord your thoughtful best.
