A worship leader is a person responsible for guiding a congregation in worship during religious services. They typically lead music, prayers, and other elements of worship, helping to create an atmosphere of reverence and connection with the divine. Worship leaders often work closely with pastors and musicians to plan and coordinate the service. In many religious communities, worship leaders may also select songs, teach new music, and encourage participation from the congregation. Their role can vary depending on the traditions of the faith, whether it be in Christianity, Judaism, or other religions, but their primary goal is to facilitate spiritual engagement.
