Worship Leader magazine, our flagship publication, was founded as a journal 20 years ago, by Dr. Charles Fromm, and began publishing in its present day magazine format in 1990. The staff, writers, and columnists each work diligently to serve our readership of over 40,000 subscribers.

Our Mission Is:

Believing that God is the Audience of our worship, we provide a trusted gathering place in our changing world, a point of excellence where the global worship community can connect, communicate, sharpen their skills and be offered a platform to author multi-media devotional arts that direct the Church toward the one true worship leader—Jesus Christ.

Song DISCovery exists as a resource to bring you some of the best new music for worship. Our mission is to equip Worship Leaders with a broad and diverse selection of worship songs and resources that they can quickly integrate and use in their worship settings—the following Sunday and for years to come.
