“We were engaged from start to finish by Grant’s witty, genuine, and thoroughly informative style of communication. I continue to get comments from those who were in attendance that his workshop is still making an impact upon them and their families.”
“We were left with a greater vision for our worship ministry, as well as some very concrete practical steps we were ready to take in the following months.”
“Grant did a fantastic job of sharing both his knowledge and passion with our team and the teams of other local churches.”
“Grant has a real talent for teaching and communicating in an incredibly precise and encouraging way. Since the workshop, our team are far more cohesive, better at listening to each other and we’re making a cleaner, more inviting sound.”
“Grant Norsworthy is exceptionally gifted both as a practitioner and a teacher of the worshiping arts. As a longtime artist and worship leader myself, he has my highest recommendation.”
“In ways that were both practical and God-honouring, Grant helped us to think much more about what we are trying to achieve as a team. He gently but firmly encouraged us to make effective changes and left us full of enthusiasm and eager for more.”
“Still Grant’s words are ringing in my ears! Such an inspiring message. I was challenged to recognise what true worship is… and the way I express worship is never gonna be same again.”
“The difference before and after Grant’s coaching is ‘chalk and cheese’. Our music team has been given real insight into the higher standard that is possible as we work to create a sound that encourages worship in our church.”
“Grant is 100% right! I have noticed a significant improvement in the level of congregational participation now that I am applying the song key choice principals that he teaches through More Than Music Mentor.”
“What wonderful ideas he had! What helpful changes were implemented and suggested! Grant worked wonderfully with our praise team. Our whole congregation is seeing the benefits.”
“Definitely would like another session! In the few hours, I have gained so much insight.”
“Want next-level musicianship and growing worshipers? Book Grant.”
“Grant brought some amazing insight into the technical and spiritual aspects of leading people in congregational worship. Our teams were inspired and motivated by the ideas that he brought. We are so grateful for Grant’s input and his heart to equip the Body of Christ.”
“Grant and his family are keenly and actively involved with the life of our church here at St Paul’s. As Grant’s pastor, I can confirm that he teaches a very God-centred approach to what worship is and a has a sincere desire to help church musicians understand, embrace and fulfil their important role.”
“As a Christ-follower and as a musician it is encouraging to meet a man who preaches a message of unity on stage, and then still lives it when the crowd has left the building.”
“Grant from More Than Music Mentor did such a great job! I was stoked with the workshop’s outcome and it was so well received by the whole team. It was practical and inspiring for everyone. As a result, there’s been a positive shift and we look forward to ongoing growth as a result of what Grant taught.”
“This experience has left a lasting impact on my spirit, and I am sure the same is true for many others also.”
“From just a couple of hours on Saturday night and then Sunday morning services, Grant effectively inspired greater musicianship, more authentic worship, and servant hearted attitudes in my people and in me.”
“I really needed to hear what you had to say. It brought tears to my eyes. The Lord was really convicting me. It’s a wonderful thing to feel that passion for Christ again. Thank you!”
“Within the course of a one hour workshop, Grant’s instruction gave worship leaders and church musicians vital tools to lead efficiently.”
“We loved having Grant come to ROCC and share with our team! It was a great way to get everyone excited and better equipped to lead others in worship! Would highly recommend him coming to minister to your team!”
“Do yourself a favor and get to know Grant Norsworthy. He is certainly much more than a music mentor.”
“Having Grant Norsworthy work with our band for two hours was the best investment we have made in our music ministry. We now have renewed focus and enthusiasm for serving our congregation and Him. Thank you, Grant!”
“Through More Than Music Mentor, Grant Norsworthy offers an incredibly valuable resource to the Christian Church. He has a unique ability to elevate the effectiveness of a church’s team of singers, instrumentalists and technicians – no matter what level they’re at now.”
“Whether you’re a big or small church, doing this or that musical genre, with an all-pro band or beginner volunteers, a big choir or one singer with an acoustic guitar, Grant’s laser-focused message will be of great benefit to your worship team.”
“Every worship team can benefit from Grant’s workshop. I truly believe that he brings people back to the heart and essence of what worship should be in the church. Sure, every church is different. However, his concepts and methodology bring a healthy unity to the whole team and the congregation.”
“From an audio engineer’s standpoint, what he brings just makes my job easier! Teams learn to play and sing together as one, instead of fighting for their own place. This results in a fuller, more engaging mix at a much more manageable volume.”
“Having our instrumentalists and singers use Grant’s techniques paid off instantly! Our congregations were engaged and participating more than ever.”
“The workshop was extremely helpful. Grant unlocked the mysteries of HOW music works to support congregational worship in song and helped our team become more passionate about WHY they sing and play.”
“Our time with Grant far exceeded my expectations. The coaching he gave our praise team was clear and thoughtful. Even weeks later, we are still talking about the things he shared and the ideas he has given us.”
“We really enjoyed having Grant from More Than Music Mentor with us and would love to have him back again.”
“Grant can teach you in a single workshop what it would take experience years to share. It’s the unique gift that God has given him and he is using it to grow the Church of Jesus all around the world.”
“Grant helped our team want to come together for the purpose of leading God’s people, rather than a bunch of soloists or loud musicians. We rehearsed Sunday very differently and it was a special time knowing everyone was part of a team preferring one another. Wow, what a difference!”
“I have not found any other conference or class to be as simply profound and wholly practical as Grant’s More than a Music Mentor training. Within 2-3 weeks of implementing Grant’s ideas, we saw and heard a huge difference in our congregational singing. The Church singing loudly together is a beautiful thing to behold!”
“We had 3 music groups work with Grant, and everyone got something out of it. Grant was not afraid to point out what needed to be changed but did it in a way that made us feel valued.”
“Our music team had the honor of spending a weekend with Grant, and his insight was much needed. He did a wonderful job of integrating the ‘why’ and the ‘how’ of our singing and playing. Our team benefited substantially from his visit.”
“Incredibly valuable! We made some immediate changes that have improved our sound and enhanced our rehearsals.”
“Before Grant came to work with our team, he sought to understand our context so that he could offer the best support possible.”
“Our music/tech team is now at an entirely new level due to Grant’s encouragement.”
“Put your humble pants on and have Grant come and spend time with you and your team. It is time and money well spent!”
“Seeing how Grant works with teams has inspired me to look differently at how I mentor my team and teach them. He has insight not only into the musical dynamics of a ‘worship team’, but into the spiritual motivations that drive what we all do.”
“The More Than Music Workshop that Grant taught a few years ago is still paying dividends in my music, worship, and leadership. Thanks for allowing God to use your gifts in such a tremendous way!”
“Our team was inspired and motivated by Grant’s leadership. His professionalism and expertise with music/vocal/tech coaching is exceptional. We are looking forward to continuing our relationship with Grant.”
“Grant is a great AND fun teacher. He was able to come into our music team and clear off the cobwebs and open our eyes to some fresh new ideas. We noticed immediate improvements the following Sunday!”
“I’ve been involved in Christian ministry all my life, but I have never before heard the invaluable and crucial information that Grant is offering through More Than Music Mentor.”
“Having Grant at our church was at once a wake-up call for us and a fantastic experience of praise. He spoke directly to our specific needs in reclaiming the true meaning of worship, and his ability to work with our musicians to bring us up a level was exactly what we hoped to accomplish.”
“A standout thought to me from Grant’s teaching was the need for our musicians to make ‘small musical sacrifices’ to prioritise the ‘higher joy’ of seeing our people more fully engaged in worship.”
“It was amazing! In over 30 years of running sound desks, I can’t remember such a high level of engagement from the congregation – worshipping God at the top of their lungs. I had to increase the volume from the PA to be heard above them!”
“Our time with More Than Music Mentor was inspirational. No matter what age or experience level, our band members all benefited from Grant’s entertaining and engaging presentation. We were all greatly encouraged!”
“We’ve noticed huge changes in unity and direction since having some of Grant’s More Than Music Mentor training. The small tweaks he made to the way we were doing things has made a distinct difference in the way the congregation is responding to sung worship.”
“I am truly touched by Grant’s humility and passion to lead people towards true worship.”
“Grant was able to pinpoint specific areas where each of our team members could improve. Some found this direct approach to be quite challenging, but – after taking his advice on board – those were the ones who made the biggest improvement and valued the time with Grant the most.”
“Our team was so inspired by what we were able to accomplish together in the time we had with Grant.”
“Grant shared passionately, challenged respectfully and brought a good balance of teaching between technical skill and spiritual application. Our team gained a lot from the experience.”
“The Saturday workshop was so very helpful! I learned things I had never heard anywhere else before and God moved so very powerfully all through the songs and the message on Sunday morning. Speaking just for me and my family, I don’t think our lives will ever quite be the same again.”
“Our time with Grant has brought more unity to our church and has helped the music team and congregation be more of the same heart in why we sing and make music – to worship God!”
“More Than Music Mentor’s coaching and teaching on worship is very powerful. Grant Norsworthy’s maturity and wisdom on the subject of worship must be shared across every Christian church!”
“Grant really inspired our people to reflect on how and why we worship through music. We will be reaping the benefits of this workshop for a long time to come.”
“In the few weeks since Grant’s More Than Music Workshop – with us now applying the things he taught the team – our congregational participation is much better than I’ve ever seen before. We are very grateful!”
“Grant is an effective communicator who is able to work with teams of varying ability to get the best from them and grow their musicality. I would highly recommend Grant to any church seeking to enhance their sung worship experience.”
“Grant has a way of capturing your attention and helping you focus on what’s imperative about worship. Whether it’s singing a song, the spoken Word, or living a life of worship, he always strikes at the heart. The Lord will use Grant to bring change to your congregation.”
“I love what Grant’s doing with More Than Music Mentor. His passion and desire to affect culture is amazing!”
“Grant is a great teacher, leader and person. He has a passion for worship and shares his passion with God’s people through his More Than Music Mentor ministry.”

“Grant challenged our church in such a way that neither discouraged nor coddled, but rather in an uplifting ‘Come on, let’s do better together!’ manner that really uplifted us.”
