Exploring the Worship Spectrum by Stanley N Gundry
A clear, engaging description of the six most prevalent models of worship in North American churches, presented by advocates for each position. The contributors evaluate each position in order to broaden peoples understanding of diverse models and shed light on an emotive issue.
Six different writers each present a chapter on their particular worship -- running the gamut from formal liturgical, to charismatic, to emerging worshipEach chapter is followed by short commentaries by the other writers providing a variety of perspectives on each worship style. What emerges is a fascinating conversation that doesn't try to convert you to one particular style of worship, but broadens your mind to the inherent worth of different types of worship. A good read. * YouthWorker Journal *
