They happen. Sometimes they can destroy a "worship moment" and give a (often undeserved) not-so-good impression of the church's intelligence and communication skills as a whole. After all, D.A. Carson once said to my seminary class that you will not make great impact for the Gospel if you're not a good speller.
Yet worship slide typos still happen. What's the most gracious response? Some ignore them and jokingly (and creatively) justify them in their minds. My favorite from my experience was when a line on the screen for a song I was leading said, "soothe their voilent wounds." I, for fun, explained that "voilent" is from the word "voila," meaning "surprising wounds." Still, there haven't been any "voilent wounds" on the screen since.
Here's how Jon Acuff responds, internally, to worship slide typos. How do you?
