What to Play During Prayer

Display Options

Export Editor Bookmark

As worship keys players,

we're the people who often get asked to "fill space," for the moments during a worship service-

Sometimes these are planned- like announcements, or a baby dedication,

And other times things go off-script- a prayer as you transition songs, an altar call as the Pastor wraps things up, etc.

These opportunities to come alongside and support your pastor from the keys can be powerful,

But they can also be quite intimidating.

What if you play a wrong note?

What if the band joins in and suddenly you lose track of what progression you were on?

How can you be sure that what you're playing is supporting what is happening, and not becoming a distraction?

To help break some of this down, I asked my friend Seth Putnam, a Worship Pastor at New Life Church in Colorado Springs and an incredible keys player, to share his heart for playing under your pastor during a time of prayer.

The result was a super practical video that goes deep into practical ways you can play under your pastor,

I also asked Seth some harder questions I know many keys players wrestle with when it comes to playing during these moments,

Like what do you say to people who view this as manipulative,

Or, can you still do this if your church doesn't have these lingering, spontaneous moments?

New Sounds for Sunday Keys

The April Sunday Keys Sound Library update is now live in the App, MainStage, and Ableton Live formats!

This month's new batch of Sounds covers a good bit of ground so you should go check it out for yourself, but I want to draw your attention to two presets in particular- make sure you go check out 'Definitive Pad' and 'Epic Verb Pad'. These two new pads are right at the top of my list of favorite pad sounds we've ever voiced. They are so versatile, full, and powerful!

If you don't already have a Sunday Keys License, you can purchase one today to level up your worship keys rig and immediately receive the entire Sunday Keys Sound Library, plus new sounds every single month.

Free Resource: Worship Musician Magazine

Our friends at Worship Musician Magazine just dropped the April Issue, featuring an interview with Passion's Brett Younker, and lots more. I contributed an article for keys players sharing a few things I've learned about voicing chords on the piano while coming from a guitar background.

That's it for this week's update, have an awesome week!

As worship keys players,

we're the people who often get asked to "fill space," for the
moments during a worship service-

Sometimes these are planned- like announcements, or a baby

And other times things go off-script- a prayer as you transition

These opportunities to come alongside and support your pastor
from the keys can be powerful,

But they can also be quite intimidating.

What if you play a wrong note?

What if the band joins in and suddenly you lose track of what
progression you were on?

How can you be sure that what you're playing is supporting what
is happening, and not becoming a distraction?

To help break some of this down, I asked my friend Seth Putnam, a
Worship Pastor at New Life Church in Colorado Springs and an
incredible keys player, to share his heart for playing under your
pastor during a time of prayer.

The result was a super practical video that goes deep into
