Approaching God: A Guide for Worship Leaders and Worshippers

Worship in the evangelical tradition is a blend of prepared and extempore contributions. It generally follows a set pattern, but openness to spontaneity is an essential ingredient. As in other traditions, ministers and worship leaders receive very little training in how to lead worship and this book meets a pressing need. A very practical resource, it offers clear guidelines and a theological framework that genuinely embrace the characteristics of evangelical worship. It considers many aspects of worship including: * Why do we worship? * Who is worship for? * Patterns and shapes in worship * Types of prayer * Singing * Preaching * The Lord's Supper * Nuts and bolts of leading * The spirituality of leading worship * Connections to the whole of life * Worship as encounter * Worship as pastoral care * Worship as evangelism * Worship as celebration A directory of resources and online worship is also provided.
