MEETING OF EVANGELICAL WORSHIP THEOLOGIANS (cont.)

There is a report on the Worship Theologians Conference held September 20-22 at the Calvin Institute for Christian Worship at the Center’s website HERE. There you can also download a number of the papers that were submitted by participants for discussion at the conference.

PROCLAMATION AND PRAISE: Hebrews 2:12 and the Christology of Worship

 just published!

P&P photo.jpgThis book is a biblical and theological study of the role of Christ in leading our worship. The topic of the present ministry of Christ in our midst is an important and often neglected one, and a necessary corrective to our tendency to do worship in our own strength. I hope this little book will be a helpful contribution to the discussion.

The book is available through amazon.com, but may be cheaper through the publisher, Wipf and StockArticles (depending on your shipping options). If you’re interested in the subject but not able to buy the book, you might want to read two articles on the page at this website, “Jesus Our Worship Leader” and “Proclamation and Praise,” which deal with the subject considerably more briefly!
