Public opinion in the United States contains a paradox. The
American public is symbolically conservative: it cherishes the
symbols of conservatism and is more likely to identify as
conservative than as liberal. Yet at the same time, it is
operationally liberal, wanting government to do and spend more to
solve a variety of social problems. This book focuses on
understanding this contradiction. It argues that both facets of
public opinion are real and lasting, not artifacts of the survey
context or isolated to particular points in time. By exploring the
ideological attitudes of the American public as a whole, and the
seemingly conflicted choices of individual citizens, it explains
the foundations of this paradox. The keys to understanding this
large-scale contradiction, and to thinking about its consequences,
are found in Americans' attitudes with respect to religion and
culture and in the frames in which elite actors describe policy
issues.
Worship in the evangelical tradition is a blend of prepared and
extempore contributions. It generally follows a set pattern, but
openness to spontaneity is an essential ingredient. As in other
traditions, ministers and worship leaders receive very little
training in how to lead worship and this book meets a pressing
need. It considers many aspects of worship including: Why do we
worship? Who is worship for? Patterns and shapes in worship, types
of prayer, singing, preaching, The Lord's Supper, details of
leading, the spirituality of leading worship, connections to the
whole of life, Worship as encounter, Worship as pastoral care,
Worship as evangelism, and Worship as celebration. A directory of
resources and online worship is also provided.
