Synopsis: How do you worship? Christians in many different churches worship God in many different ways. Why do you worship the way you do? Pastors and worship leaders must ask and answer questions about worship as they prepare to lead their congregations and share the means of grace in Word and sacrament with God's people. Christian Worship: Foundations offers a helpful and practical commentary on various parts of the church service that will inform decisions for those leading worship. While written with pastors in mind, this resource is valuable for all Christians interested in the fundamentals of worship. The book explores a wide variety of worship topics, including the history of worship in the Christian church at large, the church year, various rites and services, various roles in worship, art and music choices, the culture of worship, and outreach. This book is meant to help you grow in your understanding of Christian worship principles and practices."
