| Description: |
Extraordinary Christian worship is honest and versatile in its expressions of diverse liturgy. Pastors and others who lead Christian worship want to offer worship that is truthful and hopeful. They yearn to create worship that involves and includes everyone in their midst and to develop new approaches to planning so that their worship can reflect and respond to the realities of the community. This book introduces crucial and under-examined liturgical and social concepts for students and leaders of worship. Each chapter offers a brief lesson, teaching new skills and inspiring creativity for honest, faithful, and versatile worship leadership.
