Charlotte, North Carolina Mar 19, 2021 (Issuewire.com) - The significance of Christian worship as a creative medium of fellowship with God and ultimately enriching the Christian experience is a phenomenon that has attracted my interest for a long time. After spending all of my youthful and adult life doing church music, Michael A Yelverton otherwise known as Mike Yelverton is fully convinced that the role of worship in eliciting heartfelt devotion, divine rectitude, and conveying God's people into heavenly bliss will remain an indispensable part of Ministry to the 21st-century believer. Music is my life’s calling and building God’s people through spirit-filled and theologically sound worship music will not only increase my relevance in the scheme of things but will also allow me to advance the gospel through music to another level respectively.
Fortunately, my educational background in Music Education enabled me to gain a strong theoretical foundation in the art of teaching music to young kids, nurturing talents, and creating a thriving environment for strong team skills. This educational experience allowed me to hone my skills in theoretical music, diverse music instrumentation, and a host of other leadership skills that were relevant to my success in professional music. After this level of education, I proceeded to a Master’s degree in Education Administration Leadership where I gained practical insights in curriculum development, transformational leadership, ethical standards, cultural dynamics, and financial management among a host of other relevant courses that boosted my problem-solving capabilities as a music professional and trainer.
Professionally, Michael A Yelverton or Mike Yelverton is widely experienced in identifying musical talents and imparting them with the highest level of knowledge, vision, and motivation to succeed in the highly competitive and diverse music industry. Furthermore, as a worship leader and church music trainer for many years, I have raised quality vocal and instrumental personnel in different music styles and genres led countless soul-stirring worship sessions, and taught over 500 choir and praise teams the fundamentals of church music and production. The opportunity to pursue a career in secular music was an eye-opener to the different areas where music can be used to bring lasting changes and inspire true leadership in the lives of the young and old. Combining two music careers simultaneously deepened my horizon on the philosophy that guides the creation of various music types and raised the bar of my performance at all levels of professional engagement, thereby prompting excellent outputs and innovative aptitudes in the discharge of my duties. Hence, music for me is beyond the activity of music production rather it is an experience of a lifetime that encompasses talent management, team leadership, ministry, innovation, and an eye for detail respectively.
Christian Worship music should embody all the biblical virtues of salvation, repentance, forgiveness, healing, prosperity, humility, reverence, and prayer. Through creative arts and in-depth use of theological perspectives, the true potential of worship music has not been succinctly explored to enrich the musical lexicon and vocabulary of the church in the 21st century.
