Worship leader Neil Bennetts and theologian Simon Ponsonby share a
concern that modern worship is growing self-indulgent: more about
performance, less about an encounter with the divine.
They believe that this is a real and worrying trend in modern
worship. To correct it, they explore the Bible's teaching on
worship, addressing four key concerns: Worship as entertainment;
worship which lacks wonder and awe; worship as irrelevant to
mission; and worship which gratifies the worshipper rather than
honoring the Almighty.
The authors each contribute six chapters, tackling worship and
holiness; worship with passion; worship and the danger of idolatry.
How, they ask, can we rediscover the mystery of an encounter with
God, in corporate worship? How can leaders open themselves and
their congregations to the heart of God, releasing his presence and
power? How should we craft the unique dynamic of a people gathered
to sing to God?
