What To Consider When Curating The Church Song List?

Strategy Snippets · Season 1 · Episode 31

Choosing songs for church is about more than finding music people enjoy—or matching a song to this week’s sermon.

In this episode, Mel and Melinda explore how thoughtfully curating a church song list can help congregations engage more deeply in worship. They unpack everything from theological content and context to musical style, emotional tone, singability and the capabilities of the musicians leading them.

They also ask whether our song lists have enough breadth: songs of prayer and declaration, remembrance and response, celebration and even lament.

Because the songs we sing aren't simply filling a space in the service. They're tools that help people pray, remember truth, respond to God and participate together in worship.
