Not setting the expectation, or communicating the expectation, that everyone SHOULD participate during worship. <br /><br />Becoming so relaxed, especially in a more "seeker friendly" model, that people disengage. <br /><br />Setting up a room in such a way that people can sit apart from everyone else, and become observers rather than participators. (Ie round tables or couches in the back somewhere, or a row of chairs that is very separated)<br /><br />Musical elements that NEVER hit a person's heart language. It's hard if a person is ALWAYS out of their comfort zone.<br /><br />Lateness to service. You can't participate if you aren't there yet!<br /><br />Self-conciousness or a judgemental heart (focusing on self or others instead of God)julieHhttp://blog.julie-h.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25157226.post-88180932885326633322009-10-28T09:42:25.709-05:002009-10-28T09:42:25.709-05:00Good thoughts John.

I remember the days when Willow (and Parkview) used to wash the band with down color only. It added a great ambient lighting look and made the stage feel warmer but..... it sucked for video.Scott Sternerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17945174129294021532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25157226.post-84561061918851999482009-10-28T07:37:37.857-05:002009-10-28T07:37:37.857-05:00Killers:

They feel self conscious. <br /><br />Music volume too LOW where you can hear yourself sticking out singing and those around you can too. At least for me, I like to be able to blend in with the music, but still sing LOUD. If I can hear myself, and know that those around me can, I don't sing as loud and back down. I think this happens for a lot of people, though they may not be conscious of it. <br /><br />Just my opinions anyway.John Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01613868693241214215noreply@blogger.com
