Of course that includes your formation, but it isn\u2019t limited to that\u2014it\u2019s also with practical tools to help you in your ministry. It\u2019s hard to talk about being a worship leader without mentioning&amp;nbsp;Planning Center. As you know, I\u2019m a huge fan. A lot of you are already using Planning Center Services to schedule your volunteers, plan your worship services, and give your team the tools they need to learn their music. But with&amp;nbsp;Planning Center&amp;nbsp;People, you can stay even more engaged with your volunteers and anyone looking for how to get plugged in. First, some good news:&amp;nbsp;People&amp;nbsp;is completely free with any Planning Center subscription. No, you didn\u2019t hear me wrong\u2014it\u2019s free. Second, some better news: you can use&amp;nbsp;People&amp;nbsp;to add new volunteers to your teams quickly and automatically. In&amp;nbsp;People,&amp;nbsp;you can make forms for anyone interested in volunteering, put them in a step-by-step training workflow, and then automatically add them to Services to schedule them for the right team. And that\u2019s just one way you can use&amp;nbsp;People. From sending automated emails and seeing church-wide engagement to organizing your member database and keeping information up-to-date, there\u2019s tons you can do. &amp;nbsp; ","author_name":"Beyond Sunday Worship Podcast","author_url":"http:\/\/beyondsunday.libsyn.com","html":"<iframe title=\"Libsyn Player\" style=\"border: none\" src=\"\/\/html5-player.libsyn.com\/embed\/episode\/id\/35162310\/height\/90\/theme\/custom\/thumbnail\/yes\/direction\/forward\/render-playlist\/no\/custom-color\/88AA3C\/\" height=\"90\" width=\"600\" scrolling=\"no\"  allowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen oallowfullscreen msallowfullscreen><\/iframe>","thumbnail_url":"https:\/\/assets.libsyn.com\/secure\/content\/184241055"}
