Book excerpt: Presbyterian worship is known for its balance between form and freedom, seeking to be faithful to the leading of God's Word and open to the movement of God's spirit.

Download or read book Worship by the Book written by Rev. Mark Ashton and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 2010-06-01 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “What is at stake is authenticity. . . . Sooner or later Christians tire of public meetings that are profoundly inauthentic, regardless of how well (or poorly) arranged, directed, performed. We long to meet, corporately, with the living and majestic God and to offer him the praise that is his due.”—D. A. CarsonWorship is a hot topic, but the ways that Christians from different traditions view it vary greatly. What is worship? More important, what does it look like in action, both in our corporate gatherings and in our daily lives? These concerns—the blending of principle and practice—are what Worship by the Book addresses.Cutting through cultural clichés, D. A. Carson, Mark Ashton, Kent Hughes, and Timothy Keller explore, respectively:· Worship Under the Word· Following in Cranmer’s Footsteps· Free Church Worship: The Challenge of Freedom· Reformed Worship in the Global City “This is not a comprehensive theology of worship,” writes Carson. “Still less is it a sociological analysis of current trends or a minister’s manual chockfull of ‘how to’ instructions.” Rather, this book offers pastors, other congregational leaders, and seminary students a thought-provoking biblical theology of worship, followed by a look at how three very different traditions of churchmanship might move from this theological base to a better understanding of corporate worship. Running the gamut from biblical theology to historical assessment all the way to sample service sheets, Worship by the Book shows how local churches in diverse traditions can foster corporate worship that is God-honoring, Word-revering, heartfelt, and historically and culturally informed.

Download or read book A Discourse on Instrumental Music in Public Worship written by Robert Johnson and published by . This book was released on 1871 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "It was not until the middle of the nineteenth century that most Protestants, especially Presbyterians, had to face what would often be known as "the organ question." Prior to this, most of these congregations had worshiped a cappella. ... With the advent of revivalism, and the 'new measures' proposed by Charles Finney (who began his career as a Presbyterian), the advocates for instrumental music in the worship of God increased amongst the Presbyterian and Non-conformist churches in North America. By mid-century, this controversy was sweeping through many towns stirring many people to ask questions that had previously seemed to be settled practice. As a church devoted to the Scriptural principle of worship, as other Presbyterian communions introduced musical instruments into the worship of God, the Reformed Presbyterian church found itself often increasingly isolated in the war against the organ. 'A Discourse on Instrumental Music in Public Worship' presents a detailed argument against this innovation in the worship of God. Written from a pastoral point of view, it also contains a thorough discussion of the place of musical instruments in the Old Testament and their relation to the New Testament church. Johnson explains the nature of the former worship and why it is not suited to the worship of the church today. Writing amidst the controversy, he addresses many of the common objections that were raised in favor of using musical instruments and shows how those proposals fail to conform to the teaching of Scripture. ... This pamphlet contains one of the clearest and concise treatments against musical instruments written by a Reformed Presbyterian minister in North America."--From publisher description.

This book was released on 1984-01-01 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Service for the Lord's Day describes the general format or ordering of worship in the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A). The creation of the service for the Lord's Day was one of the most positive contributions of the Worship Book of 1970. The Presbyterian Supplemental Liturgical Resource (SLT) series includes liturgies that were used on a trial basis in preparation for the development of the Book of Common Worship. Though superseded by the Book of Common Worship, SLR resources remain valuable, both for the variety of liturgical texts they contain and for the commentary on the text, which contains rich historical, theological, and practical background.
Download or read book Biblical Worship Through Music written by Robert Austell and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2009-03-01 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seeking a faithful solution to conflict over musical worship, the pastor/musician author begins with biblical principles for worship, examines historical and contemporary models for worship, and evaluates worship practices in one presbytery of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.), to propose guiding principles and specific applications for the use of music in worship. The project shows biblical worship to be described by a number of characteristics and grounded in God's Word, presence, and community. After exploring these principles biblically, historically, and culturally, the outcome of the project is a significant collection of music-related worship resources for use in the local church and for equipping in broader teaching contexts.

Download or read book The Worship Pastor written by Zac M. Hicks and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 2016-10-11 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Modern worship leaders are restless. They have inherited a model of leadership that equates leading worship with being a rock star. But leading worship is more than a performance, it's about shaping souls and making disciples. Every worship leader is really a pastor. The Worship Pastor is a practical and biblical introduction to this essential pastoral role. Filled with engaging, illustrative stories it is organized to address questions of theory and practice, striving to balance conversational accessibility with informed instruction. Part One presents a series of evocative "vignettes"--intriguing and descriptive titles and metaphors of who a Worship Pastor is and what he or she does. It shows the Worship Pastor as Church-Lover, Disciple Maker, Corporate Mystic, and Doxological Philosopher. Part Two covers specific roles related to ministry within the worship service itself--the Worship Pastor as Theological Dietician, Caregiver, Mortician, Emotional Shepherd, War General, Prophetic Guardian, Missional Historian, and Liturgical Architect. Part Three looks at ministry beyond the worship service--the Worship Pastor as Visionary Teacher, Evangelist, Artist Chaplain, and Team Leader. While some worship leaders are eager to embrace their pastoral role, many are lost and confused or lack the resources of time or money to figure out what this role looks like. Pastor Zac Hicks gives us a clear guide to leading worship, one that takes the pastoral call seriously.
