Course Description
This course is designed to be an introductory class where both teacher and student explore
different subjects regarding prophetic musicianship. What is prophetic musicianship? What is
the role of the Bible and the Word of God in music and why are they related? Is music just a
nice background that enables us to enjoy times of prayer and corporate worship? What´s the
power of prophetic musicianship and why is it so important for people who love worship,
specially musicians, to understand more and more about this? As this is an ever growing
subject, and the role of full time musicians in houses of prayer and churches that pray is
expanding, we are pioneering and discovering all this together, therefore, having more questions
than answers at the end of the class is a desired goal. In this course we will also have different
tips and advise from musicians on how to flow prophetically from different instruments. We
will have these last only as extra content to enrich the class and plan to go deeper in future
opportunities.

Course Objectives/Aims

1. To explore and define the concept of prophetic musicianship and the different aspects it
entails.
2. To consider the different ways the emotional nature of musicians affect not only the
environment around them but their ability to flow spontaneously in a team context.
3. To study what the Scripture says about music and the themes we are encouraged to play
and sing.
4. To share practical advise on different instruments that can help musicians grow in
confidence in their ability to lead others, connect with a team and foster prophetic worship.
