Christians sing because we are people of hope. Yet our hope is
unlike other kinds of hope. We are not optimists; nor are we
escapists. Christian hope is uniquely shaped by the resurrection of
Jesus Christ from the dead and by the promise of our own future
resurrection. How is that hope both expressed and experienced in
contemporary worship? In this volume in the Dynamics of Christian
Worship series, pastor, theologian, and songwriter Glenn Packiam
explores what Christians sing about when they sing about hope and
what kind of hope they experience when they worship together.
Through his analysis and reflection, we find that Christian worship
is crucial to both the proclamation and the formation of Christian
hope. The Dynamics of Christian Worship series draws from a wide
range of worshiping contexts and denominational backgrounds to
unpack the many dynamics of Christian worship-including prayer,
reading the Bible, preaching, baptism, the Lord's Supper, music,
visual art, architecture, and more-to deepen both the theology and
practice of Christian worship for the life of the church.
