What Is Lakeview Worship?

Lakeview Worship is the creative arm of a local church body, a team rediscovering the true meaning of worship. We’re just normal people... mechanics, accountants, doctors, students...blue collar, white collar... young and old...all committed to seeing God’s name be glorified, and the influence of His church made greater through creative ministries.

In early 2001, God began a transformation in this 85-year-old congregation. It was much more than just a move towards contemporary music, it was a desire to know what true worship is all about. It was also born in a passion to reclaim the creative spirit of the arts in order to re-energize the church and connect with the culture. At Lakeview, this creative resurgence began with songwriting.

A few new songs were introduced into the Lakeview church body, the church began to breathe with new excitement that needed an outlet. So in late 2001 we recorded our first live worship album. That night proved to be the catalyst for things to come as new writers began to emerge, new musicians and singers began to join the team, and Lakeview’s body slowly began taking ownership of what God was doing. We have recorded a new live album every year since then, as well as two studio projects, proving that God can do anything through the everyday people of His church when they respond to Him in obedience.

As we continue this journey it’s our desire to share the excitement, spirit, and resources God is birthing into Lakeview. Whether it’s through one of our albums or songbooks, our website, our weekly e-newsletter or other resources, we hope that we might provide you, your team, or your church with encouragement to be what God has called you to be.

It’s not about hype. It’s about His church. It’s about the authentic presence of God dwelling with His people. It’s about worship.
