Team Culture Transformation: The Foundation of Worship Change

Years ago, my lead pastor shared a wisdom nugget that transformed my approach to leadership: "Bend the branch." This simple metaphor contains profound truth about leading change. If you forcefully bend a branch, it snaps. But with patient, consistent pressure, that same branch can be reshaped over time. This philosophy applies perfectly to worship ministry, where sustainable transformation isn't about implementing the latest song or technology—it's about developing the people God has entrusted to your care.
