![]() This conference was so much more than I could have imagined. I felt God’s presence here and have a renewed sense of purpose with my ministry. I will take the tools you have given me and go write great songs. See you next year!
Most bang for my buck I’ve ever known! Expectations exceeded in so many golden comments presented by seasoned writers and their free friendship both in and out of sessions. I am so honored to be a part of this. I really felt care and love from the staff. Everyone made me feel so comfortable. I learned lots and have already put WAJ on my calendar for next year. I came to learn about songwriting, which I did. But I took away so much more. The worship, teaching, songs, and all the people I met filled a drained soul with hope and a renewed realization of God’s amazing love. This is family. These are my people. Even the clinicians make you feel like family. Everyone is so kind and encouraging. WAJ will always be on my calendar. I wanted a conference that had something to do with Urban Gospel, so I was glad to know it was welcome here. Thank you so much! I can’t wait to come back next year. It was a packed weekend, but so short. I can’t believe it’s over. The clinicians were great! They were very helpful and I felt like they really cared about our growth as songwriters. I so appreciate the meekness and humility of the clinicians. Their transparency and humor walk hand in hand. All leaders are real. All make me want to write about Jesus. There is nothing that can compare with the WAJ experience! It is a must for all Christian songwriters. It changes everything. A part of my heart has opened like never before. |
our award-winning faculty
...includes the top writers in Christian music. They devote the Write About Jesus weekend to sharing their knowledge and giving analysis and advice. They're with our registrants throughout the day, not just during classes, but chatting between classes in the hallways and joining them at meals.
Collectively they are…
— the winners of over 40 Dove Awards
— the writers of over 100 number one songs
— the writers of over 150 musicals performed in churches around the world
— the writers of countless cuts by top Christian artists
More important than cuts, awards and number ones is the heart of each member of the faculty. Each one has been invited to Write About Jesus for more than there expertise, but because they believe in helping to open the door for others.
The WAJ faculty changes from year to year, but it always includes top writers who are currently getting cuts in Pop/AC/CCM, Southern Gospel, Worship, and Print and Choral. Representatives from several publishers, A&R directors, and producers round out the faculty, giving Write About Jesus a 6:1 registrant-to-faculty ratio. This gives our registrants lots of opportunity to connect with these music business pros.
