[Steve · Rating 5 out of 5]

Superlative theology of worship and a number of practical items for those who plan worship.

[John Medendorp · Rating 5 out of 5]

An incredibly easy-to-read book on the planning of worship, with a view to both the weekly grind of worship planning as well as the "big picture" questions of faith formation, evaluation, development and changes, and long-range planning. A wonderful array of practical steps that keeps in mind the unique composition, size, and convictions of different congregations, all rooted in a refreshingly biblical theology. Truly a must-read for any pastors, musicians, or worship planners involved in church work.
