WORSHIP IS A VERB

"Webber brings not only a thorough background in worship history to this book, but also much personal enthusiasm.. His format is as creative as the worship he seeks to enhance. He uses quotations throughout the book based on personal interviews with ministers and college professors that punctuate and enrich his ideas. He also describes in some detail worship experiences of his own [and] reflects upon and enjoys the variety and integrity of each tradition without lapsing into provencial judgments..... [This] is an excellent source for guiding a church staff and/or laypersons in a renewal of worship in a local church.... [It] might be just the book to start you on a journey toward worship renewal in your church."

-C. Michael Hawn, Faith and Mission

WORSHIP OLD AND NEW

"The scriptural bases, the structures, and the elements of worship are clearly described.... A helpful combination of history and the-ology in a practical book."-National Bulletin on Liturgy

"I am impressed by the range and depth of his reading. All of the major writers on worship seem to be in his notes... well-known writers like Cullman, Jungmann, and Dix, but also less well-known scholars such as Hughes Oliphant Old.. I'm glad for this book. It presents a case far better than its counterparts."

-Keith Watkins, Christian Theological Seminary

THE BOOK OF FAMILY PRAYER
