Why Breakthru Worship School?
NEW!
Development Tracks
NEW in 2026!
New to Breakthru Worship School 2026, our Development Tracks are designed to take delegates beyond practical ministry skills into deeper areas of leadership growth, spiritual formation, and intentional development within worship ministry.
Running simultaneously, these seven specialised tracks provide an opportunity for delegates to choose a focused learning journey aligned with their calling, passion, or area of responsibility. While our breakout sessions equip participants in the practical outworking of worship ministry, the Development Tracks are designed to cultivate the heart, leadership, and longevity required to serve faithfully and effectively in the House of God.
Each track will explore a specific aspect of worship ministry through teaching, discussion, and impartation from experienced leaders who carry both wisdom and practical insight. Whether you are growing as a songwriter, worship leader, creative, team builder, or someone hungry to steward God's presence well, these sessions are designed to challenge, inspire, and equip you for the journey ahead.
