You can become the peacemaker in the worship wars. Disagreements over worship style are increasingly common in today's churches. Some congregations find themselves torn apart; at others, confrontations simmer just below the surface. This book gives you the ammunition you need to make peace among warring factions and promote healing within the church. Focusing on American worship styles of the late 1990s, this book describes objective criteria for appropriate worship, based on long-standing traditions, contemporary needs and expectations, and the natural differences among Christians' perception of their relationship with God. PUTTING AN END TO WORSHIP WARS will help you identify points of agreement between opposing sides, encourage members of one camp to respect the views of the other, and remind everyone of the biblical mandates for forgiveness, compassion, and understanding that should accompany every act of worship, electric guitars or not.
