“There is a wealth of thought-provoking material here! The New Worship offers insightful guidance through the current maze of worship issues. Liesch calls us to a vigourous reconsideration of the biblical and theological foundations for the ministry of music in Christian worship. In his examination of Christ-led worship, as modeled in Hebrews, he effectively reminds us that our song can be nothing more (nor less) than response—the initiative is always God’s.”
“The style is very readable and the charts are exceptionally helpful. The New Worship deserves a wide reading and wide implementation.”
Dr. J. Daniel Bauman
“It is tragic that many churches are being divided over the subjects of worship and music. It should not be so. This excellent volume by Barry Liesch will enable local churches to develop meaningful worship experiences which will bring glory to God and unity to his Body!”
“This is the kind of book I’ve been waiting for. It gets to the heart of issues and is still full of practical ideas.”
“A very useful resource for music directors.”
“All churches expanding the role of contemporary music in worship will benefit from this practical, down-to-earth book, written much like a set of workshops for pastors and musicians. Seminaries will also find his descriptive analyses and guidelines most helpful for preparing a new generation of worship leaders.”
“meism,” which champions only one style of worship, to a creative integration employing a blend of the best in traditional and contemporary styles.”
Dr. Gary L. McIntosh
“homework”—the result is a fine, comprehensive treatise.”
