For intentional worship in the Church
A pastor and musician share their experience and understanding of worship in the Church to help you lead worship.
This manual is a true reference tool for worship leaders, musicians, pastors, elders, and anyone involved in the conduct of worship. He approaches this theme from both a biblical and practical perspective.
After a detailed study of biblical principles, the basis of individual and collective praise, Philippe Viguier and Kevin Stauffer raise an essential question: What is the purpose of worship? The answer to this question is decisive. It is she who will guide our worship.
This work then offers us numerous tips and tools for the practical organization of worship. All the roles involved in the conduct of worship are discussed, as well as the different elements that make it up (prayers, Last Supper, offerings, etc.). He then addresses the important subject of songs (choice, creation, etc.) and discusses the problem of online worship. The manual ends with technical sheets written by eleven specialists (musicians, sound engineers, etc.). They will help you better manage the different musical instruments, sound and multimedia presentations during your worship services.
