Samford University’s Center for Worship and the Arts is a vibrant hub dedicated to equipping leaders at the intersection of worship, theology, and the arts.
Through our research and programs, we seek to understand how young people experience public Christian worship across traditions. From teenagers and emerging adults to our new children’s worship emphasis, we value the voices of young worshipers. These insights guide us toward a vibrant, multi-generational Church where worship fuels discipleship, transforms lives, and advances God’s kingdom.
Discover practical tools for the church and research-based innovative ideas to enhance your worship ministry. Our resources help you create meaningful and inspiring worship experiences for your congregation. We offer online certificates and continuing education programs for worship leaders, designed to deepen your understanding, sharpen your skills, and equip you for effective ministry leadership. Whether enhancing theological knowledge, improving leadership, or exploring new worship techniques, we have resources designed to support your continued growth and impact in ministry.
Join us here at Samford for worship events, workshops, and conferences designed to foster faithful, artistic worship and leadership. These gatherings aren’t just dates on a calendar—they’re spaces of renewal, equipping, and community. Featuring nationally recognized voices and rooted in deep theological reflection, each experience invites you to grow in skill and spirit, to spark creativity, and to cultivate practices that nourish both individual calling and collective ministry. Whether you’re a pastor, worship leader, artist, or simply hungry for connection and inspiration, we invite you to come be refreshed, challenged, and formed together in community.
