OverviewThe third and final volume in a series of practical training guides by Dr. Bill Hooper, former Dean of the School of Church Music at New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary, 'Worship History For Worship Leaders' is the result of the author's many years of experience as a pastor, church musician, music leader, and seminary professor. 'Worship History For Worship Leaders' surveys how the People of God have responded to God's revelation of himself through worship and how music has played an important role in that worship. You will discover that for the Hebrews, and early Christians, worship was a way of life, a life style or life orientation. A person's private life, work life and corporate religious life were all related to God every day. You will discover, too, that worship should be a way of life for Christians in the twenty-first century. If we define worship as the human response to God's revelation of himself, it raises at least three questions: 1) How does God enable us to respond to him? 2) What does God require of us so we can worship him acceptably? 3) What kind of human responses are acceptable to God? This book looks to answer those questions. 'Worship History For Worship Leaders' covers: Worship In The Old Testament, Music & Instruments in the Old Testament, Kings & Prophets, Praise In the Temple, Jesus' Attitude Toward Worship, Worship In The New Testament, The Reformation Tradition, Early English Hymnody, The American Traditions, The Contemporary Scene. This book helps to enable worship leaders to connect to the wonderful history of Christian worship and song. By understanding from where we have come, perhaps we can better understand where we are today and where we should go tomorrow.
