Book Description
Transitions happen. Song to song. Music to preaching. Prayer to offering. They happen. And they can happen just how they happen, or they can happen according to a plan. An unplanned transition is at best a speed bump; at its worst it's a train wreck. When we don't plan a transition, we put a period in where a comma should be. Or a gasp where a gentle inhaled breath should be. Or a fence instead of a gate. Or, well, you get the picture. (Worship Flow, page 5) You've got about an hour once a week to engage, encourage, challenge and lead your gathered congregation. Don't waste the opportunity by distracting them with clumsy transitions and awkward silence. Your transitions matter. Don't leave them up to chance. Great segues intentionally move people along the journey of worship. Poorly planned transitions jar people out of the moment they were instead of guiding them seamlessly to the next. Worship Flow: 28 Ways To Create Great Segues is a quick, easy-to-read resource for worship leaders and pastors who plan services. In these 28 segues, Jon covers how to move in and out of all the common elements of worship-music, prayer, scripture, offering, announcements, messages, communion, and more. Best of all, this isn't another book you'll feel like you need to read cover-to-cover. It's a worship planner's "desk reference" for service transitions. Each section focus on a different service elements, and each chapter is focused on a specific segue to move in and out of those elements. So don't let your transitions between service elements be the thing that keeps people from focusing on what really matters in your worship gathering.

Flow
Author: Lester Ruth
Publisher: Abingdon Press
ISBN: 1501899007
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 163
Book Description
Is there a way to do the prescribed or suggested orders of worship from denominational worship resources—such as the United Methodist Book of Worship, Evangelical Lutheran Book of Worship, the Book of Common Worship of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.), or the Book of Common Prayer—in a way that feels legitimately and authentically contemporary? This practical, how-to book will help churches plan and implement passionate and invigorating worship. Step by step, author Lester Ruth and contributors Zachary Barnes, Andrew Eastes, Jonathan Ottaway, Adam Perez, Glenn Stallsmith and Deborah Wong break down the process of re-thinking what the official or recommended order of worship is truly suggesting, so pastors and worship leaders can plan and lead a service of Word and Table that feels genuinely relevant and attuned to the congregation’s culture. With this goal, Flow casts a new, but classic, understanding of traditional worship as well as spurs a reconsideration of how contemporary worship can be done by honoring the traditions of denominational congregations.

The Secluded Worshipper
Author: Zacharias Tanee Fomum
Publisher: ZTF Books Online
ISBN: 1311304150
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 194
Book Description
This book, by Z.T. Fomum, highlights one of the Biblical models that made God her Eternal Bliss. Anna the prophetess, after having known gratification from natural pleasures and desires, chose neither withdrawal, seclusion, the temple, nor a life of prayer and fasting. Instead, she chose God! God was her only Choice. Living in total seclusion, she happily accepted everything that accompanied her only choice. She withdrew in an attempt to give Him endless praise night and day without distraction, from a life of worship. This book is a cry from the heart of the author to raise in our generation many "Annas", lovers serving out of love and not servants who will do many things for Him out of duty. Read this book and get yourself enlisted into the army of secluded worshippers.
