The Art of Worship

Product Description
Paxson Jeancake's The Art of Worship invites readers to explore the intersection of gospel, art, and worship. In the midst of corporate worship--through the artistic media of story, imagery, and expression--people's eyes can be opened to the beautiful, paradoxical truth of the gospel. Gospel-centered worship, however, does not happen in a vacuum. It is crafted and facilitated by human leadership, informed by biblical inquiry and theological conclusions, and fleshed out in the context of a local culture and community. This book explores all of these various facets of worship to help worship leaders, worship planners, pastors, and laypeople experience and plan gospel-centered worship that is contextual and creative, for the glory of God and the edification of his people. ""Paxson's attention to the worship leader's task of thinking like a theologian, laboring like an artist, and shepherding like a pastor is worth far more than the price of this book. This is a book that every pastor, musician, and conscientious layperson should read."" --Bart Garrett Lead Pastor, Christ Church of Berkeley, California ""Finally . . . a book on worship which approaches every aspect of our most glorious doxological calling from the perspective of the gospel of God's grace. . . . As my friend and colleague, Paxson gives us rich content without predictable cliche, practical instruction devoid of pragmatic gimmicks, and a passion to glorify God as true worshippers, and not merely satisfy ourselves as selfish consumers. --Scotty Smith Founding Pastor, Christ Community Church, Franklin, Tennessee In The Art of Worship, Paxson Jeancake presents a compelling case for why ""story, imagery and experience, lyrical and poetic expression"" should fill our worship. But more: he offers a handbook of practical wisdom as to how. . . . T]his is an amazingly simple, extraordinarily profound, and utterly useful book. It deserves a privileged place in every worship leader's tool kit. --Reggie M. Kidd Professor of New Testament, Reformed Theological Seminary, Orlando, and author of With One Voice: Discovering Christ's Song in Our Worship Paxson H.
