The School of Worship trains worship leaders, musicians, singers, and producers who are fueled by an uncompromising passion for Jesus as the first priority in their lives. And who are not motivated by popularity or financial reward. Is this you?
Our desire is to raise up a generation who prioritize a lifestyle centred on God’s presence in worship and intercession as the basis for reaching the lost. We aim to train and release these gifted worshipers to be firstly, lovers of Jesus, secondly grounded in the Word of God, and lastly skilled in the craft of music, songwriting, music production and worship leading.
The School of Worship imparts foundational values and principles to those intending to serve in worship ministry among the nations. Topics include character and lifestyle of a worshiper, understanding the work of the Holy Spirit in worship, applying worship principles within a cross-cultural context, the biblical and historical aspects of worship, leadership and teamwork, the dynamics of worship and intercession, prophetic ministry, spiritual warfare, creativity and musicianship, and worship in missions and evangelism.

Chris is passionate about music and God’s glory. He has had the opportunity to minister through music in many nations and across the many denominations of the Christian faith. Chris studied music at University and prior to joining YWAM was a Pastor at a church in Costa Mesa, Ca. Additionally, he was also the Worship Director for a private Christian school and has had the privilege of leading worship for apologetics conferences in the US. Chris currently serves as a co-leader for School of Worship in Kona, consultant leadership for YWAM Kona Music, and travels the world leading worship nights and teaching.
From the gorgeous Swiss Alps, he has surrendered his life to serve the nations including Kona. He has traveled to 22 nations and discovered that it is undeniable, the impact worship has and the need for equipped worship leaders, musicians, and producers to go out.
He did his DTS in Mexico where he realized that he thrives in discipleship, comes alive in foreign places, and was made to play the drums. He loves to equip and develop young musicians into leaders, and champion them to be who God created them to be.
