Up with worship : how to quit playing church (Trawas)

Since its publication over twenty years ago, Up with Worship has proven itself to be an enduring classic. The first book of its type, it was truly ahead of its time. With demand for this book continual and broad, author Anne Ortlund is now revising and expanding on the original theme. Ortlund contends that we fail to experience the Presence when we don't allow ourselves to worship in the now and instead become lost in past successes. Up with Worship encourages the pursuit of God's presence#x97; to the point we become so thirsty we become #x93;absolutely cotton#x97;mouthed.#x94; Up with Worship is also a very practical book that gives #x93;how to#x94; instructions for such worship elements as the prelude, ambience, using praise songs and hymns as well as special music, prayer, announcements, the sacraments, and preaching. Also such #x93;behind the scenes#x94; topics as bulletins, greeters and ushers, preparation, and a worship service flow are covered

On the streets where we have lived Worshiping in the now Worship services can't be served smorgasbord Three cheers for stiff, rigid rows of pews! The church service is a stage play Broken bottles When Lake Avenuers got broken Leaders must often follow followers. Part Two: Now let's go through a worship service What a worship service is Up with worship! Worship looks up Whom will your church love, God or self? God among us Christians don't naturally worship Worship is fundamentally an offering What should be in your hand when you come to church What should be in your heart when you come to church In the Holy of Holies God's preparation tactic Anne's notes on one of Ray's sermons. Who's responsible for this thing, anyway? The buck stops here Those beautiful words, "but the Lord ..." Meanwhile, back behind the scenes The printed bulletin Spontaneity is not more spiritual Make your worship service like a game of ping-pong The pre-huddle huddle The Sunday morning huddle A now, a word to the ushers The burden of the organist The prelude Hymns are where the power connects Plain or fancy? Suggestions for noncreative organists What hymns? All church staffers, take note Instead of a prelude.

Why are you reading? Church people, get with it! Classical organ literature has its place Essential ingredients for a happening Are your choir members really all there in worship? The minister of music undershepherds his choirs ... And the choirs submit to being a flock Rebuttal to "We don't have to practice. It's only a hymn" A service's flow Announcements. A worship service really can be worship Sacraments are special An alternative to churchgoing That exciting scripture reading How not to listen to a sermon A sermon doesn't have to be all at once Preaching How to listen to a sermon What makes a sermon biblical?
