Book Description
Many in the church see worship leading and theological processing at opposite ends of a big room. Theology is considered the business of pastors and professors, while worship is the business of musicians and rock stars.
But a new wave of young worship leaders is hungry for something different, the desire to think not just pragmatically (sound, charts, guitars) but theologically (the gospel, justice, pastoral ministry) about worship. Likewise, pastors and churches increasingly desire to be led by thoughtful worship leaders who combine doxology and theology.
Doxology and Theology is a resource by worship leaders for worship leaders that clearly articulates how these two pieces join together. Contributions from eleven respected worship leaders around the country including Matt Papa (Summit Church, Raleigh-Durham), Aaron Keyes (Grace Church, Atlanta), Michael Bleecker (The Village Church, Dallas), and Zac Hicks (Cherry Creek Presbyterian Church, Denver) unite worship with themes of mission, disciple-making, the Word of God, the Trinity, family, and more.Editorial Reviews
Review
The wide spectrum of voices heard in this book come together to give an engaging and thorough look at the high calling the worship leader has in the local church. It expertly captures the marriage of passion and purpose, Christ-centeredness and mission, and spirit and truth to which the Scripture calls all worshippers of God. Matt CarterPastor of Teaching & Vision, Austin Stone“We need godly, deep, thoughtful worship leaders who take their leadership seriously. This book gives current and aspiring worship leaders challenging, but practical advice on how to lead the people of God to the throne of God.”Darrin Patrick
