Planning Blended Worship

Planning Blended Worship: The Creative Mixture of Old and New is a guide to planning creative worship for congregations that follow the traditional fourfold pattern of worship (gathering word table and dismissal) or those who prefer a free-church evangelical style but who are also interested in the core practices (space texts and so forth) that have characterized Christian worship throughout the centuries. Robert Webber designed this volume to show pastors music directors and other worship leaders the practical structural and theological steps for designing worship services characterized by biblical depth historical awareness and contemporary relevance. The author includes charts and forms at the end of each chapter that clearly show how music and other arts can be integrated with liturgical texts.
