Vertical Worship Cohort

Our goal is to train and coach through small group investment and interaction, providing a transformational experience where worship leaders learn to love and lead their churches with a vertical focus.

Training

The Vertical Worship Cohort will provide four, 2-day, in-person workshops with coaching and training from the Vertical and Harvest team while giving attention at the individual level to each attendee through year-round small group coaching.

Coaching from Vertical Worship, Harvest Bible Chapel Staff & Guests

We have a small army of experienced worship leaders, pastors and musicians that want to pour into you so much of what they have learned over years of ministry. It’ll be like drinking from a firehose.

Receive Training

Sharpen your gift and focus in areas you need to grow in with year-long small group coaching and training from established and seasoned worship pastors and artists.

Receive Feedback

We say, “feedback is the breakfast of champions”. Getting an honest evaluation of what you do combined with strategic shepherding for growth is critical to your personal ministry development.

Songwriting Intensive

One of our cohort sessions is a songwriting retreat hosted at our Cathedral Campus in downtown Chicago. Sit under some of the best songwriters in our Vertical Worship community. Learn the craft of worship songwriting and leave with new songs of your own.

Articulate Clear Vision for Worship Ministry

Invest in what the Lord has entrusted to you and take it to the next level. Hone in on your calling and gain fresh insight on why you do what you do.

Limited Capacity Groups

We intentionally limit the cohort to 50 participants to keep a family-vibe and lean into the strength of the year-round personal mentoring component.

Be Part of A Growing Family

The cohort is designed to multiply. Some of our alumni return as coaches.

Our heart is to generously share what we have learned and see it multiplied throughout the kingdom.
