Picture this: your worship team just led the congregation through a beautiful, contemplative moment of prayer and communion with God—hearts are tender, spirits are quiet, the Holy Spirit is moving—and then BAM! The pastor bounces up with enthusiastic announcements about next week’s bake sale. Sound familiar? That jarring moment of “worship whiplash” happens in churches everywhere, and it’s completely avoidable with one simple practice that most worship teams overlook. Whether you’re dealing with awkward pauses between songs, clunky handoffs to the pastor, or transitions that yank people out of worship and into distraction, there’s a game-changing solution that takes just ten extra minutes of planning each week. With a little effort, your worship service will go from choppy to seamless in no time.
