10个有助于你的敬拜团队成长的实用方法（人人都能做到）
I love to meet other pastors and chat about ministry and teams and all that God is doing in His Church. It’s encouraging to hear stories of Salvation and people coming to faith.Lately though, I’ve noticed a pattern amongst worship pastors. Somewhere in the conversation a pastor will say something like;“Oh yeah, we can’t do that, we don’t have all the people we need”... Or they may say, “If only we had the resources do it…”I find that way of thinking intriguing on many levels.
我很享受与牧师们的见面，聊一聊服事、团契和神在祂的教堂做的一切工作。每次听闻得救的见证和人们归信主耶稣，都非常振奋我心。可是最近，我注意到牧师间的交谈呈现这样一种模式。有时在对话中牧师会说这样的话：
“哦，我们做不到，我们现在没有所有需要的人”...或者他们可能这么说，“只要我们有这个资源的话我们就做这件事”。我发现这种思维方式实在有趣。
One thing that our Senior Pastor Brian always says about Hillsong Church is “we will always have more vision than resource”. That has definitely been the reality for our church and creative team over the years — no matter how much we grow, or what resources we have or don’t have, there is always more that we can be doing to build the Kingdom of God. Let’s never allow our present circumstances, or current resources, to limit us. Instead, let’s always see beyond the circumstance and look for ways we can continue to grow our teams!
我们的资深牧师Brian对Hillsong教会常常讲的一句话是“我们的异象总是会超越我们现有的资源”。这确实是我们教会和创意团队这些年的境况——不管我们成长了多少，或不管我们有或没有怎样的资源，我们总是可以做更多的事来建造我们的神的国度。永远不要让我们现在的景况或者现有的资源来限制我们。相反，我们应该超越现在的环境去，去寻找我们可以继续使团队成长的方法！
So, how can you grow your worship team? Is it as difficult as it seems?Yes, it is difficult to grow a ministry, but it’s not too difficult. It’s certainly not impossible.Often all that it takes is a little tenacity and the right ideas.So, here’s 10 practical ways you can grow your worship team……
那么，如何使你的敬拜团队成长呢？它像看起来的那么难吗？答案是肯定的，去发展一项事工是很难的，但是它没有那么艰难，也当然不是不可能的。通常它只需要一些坚持和正确的方法。那么，这里就有10个实际的方法可以让你的敬拜团队成长。
1.Create Something That People Want To Be A Part Of
There’s no point in trying to grow something that no one wants to be a part of. Start by taking stock of where the team is really at. Take a good, hard look at the team, its dynamics and even those that are a part of it. Do some self-assessment; look at your own leadership and make sure that you’re not the reason it’s not growing. Perhaps people aren’t joining because your leadership style is turning them off.
Have coffee with some of your existing team and ask them about their experience in the team. Do the same with people that could be part of your team but aren’t. Ask them why? Make the changes you need to make, create something inspiring and enjoyable, and given some time the team will start to grow. As our Pastor Brian always says, “healthy things grow!”
1、创造一些人人都想成为其中的一份子的东西
开展一些没有人想参与的事情是没有意义的。从回顾团队建立的基础开始，好好地反思你们的团队，它的内在力量和其中的组成成分。做一些自我评估，反思你的带领，确保团队不是因为你而停滞不前。也许人们不加入只是因为你的带领方式不合他们的口味。
和你现有的团队喝喝咖啡，问问他们在团契中的经历，同样对可能成为但最终没有的成为团契中一员的人这样去做，问问他们不想加入的原因。做一些必要的改变，发起一些鼓舞人心和有趣的活动，然后静静观察一段时间，你的团队就会开始改变。就像Brian牧师常说的，“好东西成长起来了！”
2. Ask People To Join
Sounds simple, but often people just need to know that you need them. If you don’t ask, you won’t receive. So ask away! If the people you ask don’t want to be involved, go back to point #1 and start again.
2、邀请人们参与
听起来很简单，但通常人们只需要知道你需要他们。如果你不问，你就不会得到回复。所以大胆开口吧！如果人们说他们不想加入进来，回到第一点，重新开始。
3. Start Regular “Team Nights”
At every campus of Hillsong Church globally we hold regular “Team Nights“. At most campuses, these are weekly. The idea behind them is to create community and to inspire the team to grow in their craft. We’ve written about them before, so I won’t go into the details too much here.
(WHY We Do Team Night? HOW We Do Team Night? WHAT Do We Do at Team Night?)
It is worth saying here though, that our Team Nights are open to anyone who would like to come. If you feel you have something to contribute, we’d love for you to be a part of team nights. Not everyone that comes is ready to play or sing on the platform, but at Team Night you can start the journey towards being ready. You can be a part of what’s happening and over time, should you put the effort in, eventually your skill and ability will be at a place that will mean you are ready to be rostered. Team Nights are a great way to grow your team and to attract new people into your creative community.
3、开始常规的“团队夜”
在全球的Hillsong的每一个聚会点，我们都会定期举办“团队夜”活动。在大部分的聚会点，它是一周一次的。这个活动的意义在于创立团体和鼓励团队在他们做的事情上成长。我们之前介绍过，所以这次就不赘述了。
（为什么我们举办“团队夜”？我们怎么做和我们做什么？）
值得一提的是，我们的“团队夜”对每个人开放，想来的人都欢迎到访。如果你觉得你想分享，我们很希望你能成为“团队夜”的一份子。不是每个来这里的人都准备好歌舞的节目了，但是在这里你可以离准备上台更进一步。你可以成为进行中的节目的一份子，渐渐地你应该花些精力在里面，最后你的才艺和能力会证明你已经准备好上台表演。“团队夜”是一个发展你的团队和吸引别人进入你们团体的绝佳的方法。
4. Teach Your Team To Be Bringers
Once you’ve started Team Nights, ask your existing team to bring other people. Your worship team might know other people within your church community with hidden talents and giftings that you don’t know of! Inspire them to bring those people.
4、教导你的团队带来新人
一旦你开始开展“团队夜”，请要求你现有的团队带其他人过来。你的敬拜团队可能知道教会团体中的其他人有一些你不知道的才能和天赋！鼓励他们把这些人带过来。
5. Go Visit Your Youth Ministry
It’s incredible the talent that sits in most youth ministries. Likewise, it’s incredible that so many worship pastors are reluctant to utilise the youth within their churches.
If you want to grow the ministry, you need to be investing in and utilising the gifts and talents of the next generation. Don’t underestimate how God wants to use them. Don’t be intimidated by them. Don’t exclude them.
Yes, the young people will come with a youthful enthusiasm that will rub some people up the wrong way. Accept that and include them anyway. It will grow your team, and it will be worth it.

5、造访你的年轻服事
不可思议的是，天赋存在于大多数的青年事工中。同样不可思议的是，很多敬拜牧师很不情愿去利用教会中年轻人的资源。
如果你想兴起事工，你需要投资和使用晚辈们的天赋和才能。不要低估主想使用他们的迫切心情，不要被他们吓到，不要将他们排除在外。
是的，青年人带有的年轻气盛可能会惹恼一些人。接受这些，不论如何将他们包含在内。这会使你的团契成长，是非常值得的。见：在敬拜中领导年轻自由的一代
6. Start Something New
A few years ago now, Pastor Brian and our leadership team decided to start a new, 8am Chapel service. The new service meant there was now a need for more worship leaders, musicians and singers, production and TV team members. The new service meant the team had to grow, there was no choice.
In your ministry this may not be possible, or your Senior Pastor may not want to add a service. But the principal still applies. You can create a place for more people by creating something new. For example, add a pre-service prayer meeting and ask people from your congregation to bring breakfast or morning tea for the team. Create a hospitality team. Why? To create a meaningful place for people to serve. In doing this you will increasing the community in the overall team and make it a place people want to be a part of.
Another idea is to add instruments to your band. Percussion or strings are just two examples. By adding new instruments you make a new place for people to be able to serve. You may just find that you have people in your church who are willing to be involved but who also don’t think they can because they never see the instrument they play being used.
6、尝试新事物
几年前，Brian牧师和我们的带领团队决定开始一个新的早晨8点钟的教堂服事。这个新的服事意味着我们需要更多带领敬拜的人、乐师、歌手、演出和电视团队参与者。这项新的事工意味着整个团队需要成长，我们别无选择。
在你的服事中这或许不大可能，或者你的资深牧师可能不想增加服事。但是这个要义依然适用。你可以通过尝试一些新事物来创立一个更多人愿意来的地方。比如说，增加一个侍奉前的祷告会，邀请你们团契中的人为大家带早餐或者早茶。培养一个殷勤招待的团队。为什么？为了创造一个人们乐意服事的好场所。在做这些的时候你会扩增整个团队，营造一个人人都想成为其中一份子的氛围。
另一个主意是在你的乐队中增加乐器。打击乐器或者弦乐器只是两个例子。通过增加新乐器你创造了一个服事机会更多的场所。你可能刚找到愿意参与进来但是不认为他们能够胜任的人，那可能只是因为他们从没有看到他们演奏的乐器被用在敬拜上过。
7. Grow More Leaders
You may already have a leadership team, that’s great — ask all of them to find a second in command. In other words, don’t take the sole responsibility to grow your team by yourself. Teach your leaders to lead. Part of leading is growing the team. If you all take it on and own it, watch as your team starts to grow over time!SEE ALSO: Worship Team Tips for Everyone
7、发展更多的带领者
你可能已经有了带领的团队，这很好——请他们找到需要帮助的一刻。换句话说，不要认为发展你的团队单单是你的责任，教导你的带领者去带领这个团队。带领的一部分就是使团队成长。如果你坚持下来，你的团队会越来越好的！见：对每个人的关于敬拜团队的建议
8. Become Evangelists
Perhaps you’ve already utilised all the singers and musicians in your church community. If that’s the case, it’s time your church grew. So, take the Great Commission on board, actively evangelise and teach your worship team to do the same. We should all be doing this anyway, but in case you’re not, now’s the time to start. Not only will your team grow in the long run, but more importantly people will find Jesus and salvation!!
8、成为福音的传播者
也许在你们教会团契你已经得到足够的歌手和乐师。如果是这样，正是你的教会成长的时候。你要担当起在路上的重担，积极传讲福音，教导你的团队也这样去行。我们无论如何都应该这样做，但是如果你还没有如此行，现在是时候开始了。不只你的团队会有长远的成长，更重要的是人们会因此寻见耶稣和救恩！！
9. Teach Someone What You Know
Sometimes people would be involved if they had the skills. They feel limited because they don’t sing or play an instrument. That’s okay, teach them. It will take time and a lot of effort, but if you want your team to grow, it will be worthwhile.SEE ALSO: 10 Things I’ve Learnt about Leading a Creative Team
9、教导人们你所知道的
有时如果人们拥有这个技能，他们会参与进来。他们如果因为自己不会唱歌或演奏乐器而觉得自己用处有限，那么你就去教他们吧。这会花费你很多时间和精力，但是如果希望这个团队成长，这是值得的。见：我从带领一个有创造力的团队中学到的10件事
10. Downsize
This may seem counterintuitive, but instead of focusing on growing numerically, start by increasing the standard. To do that you may need to downsize. Instead of utilizing more and more average players and singers, perhaps you would be better off utilising less, but better, players and singers?
It’s incredible the way a good musician will attract other good musicians. Likewise, it’s incredibly inspiring for average musicians to watch and learn from good musicians. So, instead of just trying to grow numbers however you can, maybe it could be better to work on upskilling the team you currently have.
10、减小规模
这个可能看起来很奇怪，但是与其说专注于在数量上增加，不如从提高水准开始。为了这么做你可能需要减小规模。除了使用更多的一般的歌手和乐手，也许使用更少更精的人会使景况更好，不是吗？
不可思议的是一个好的乐者会吸引其他的好乐者过来。同样，让一般的乐者从好乐者那里学习也是很激励人心的。所以，与其说费劲全力去增加规模，也许专注于提升你现有的团队的技能更好。
These are just 10 ideas. Not all of them will be applicable to every church, or every worship team. Some of them may not even make sense to you. Please take the ideas that work and use them, and leave the others.
这里只有10个小方法，并不是所有的方法都适用于每一个教会或者敬拜团队。其中一些可能对你并不起作用。请记住其中有效的方法并且应用它们，同时摒弃其他的。
