About The Pastors Workshop

It all started with a simple question:
In this digital age, why is it so difficult to find great worship resources?

Shouldn’t there be an online resource I can quickly and reliably go to to find:

  • Inspiring illustrations for my sermons

  • Quotes, curated specifically for sermons

  • Liturgy, organized topically, for worship services

From this simple question, the Pastor’s Workshop was formed.
