This isn’t just for worship leaders.

Hi, I’m Justin Rizzo.
I’ve led over 10,000 hours of live worship over the past two decades.
I’ve made mistakes. I’ve walked through burnout. I’ve navigated tough teams, tight schedules, and dry spiritual seasons.
And through it all, I’ve learned what helps worship leaders last—and what causes them to burn out.
That’s why I wrote this book.
The Ultimate Worship Team Field Guide is over 200 pages of honest, hard-won wisdom—offering both the spiritual depth and practical tools you need to lead with confidence, health, and longevity.
