Poetry and the Realm of the Public Intellectual

Worship Essentials
Everybody talks about the worship, but nobody does anything about it. The well-known quote associated with Mark Twain actually goes like this—Everybody talks about the weather ... But changing it to "worship" seems appropriate. With Worship Essentials, Dove Award-winning worship leader Mike Harland helps leaders do something about it. Perhaps no subject about church generates more opinion and passion than worship. Walk with the typical church-going family on their way to the car after the service and just listen. Everybody really does talk about worship. Now, veteran worship leader and experienced ministry coach Mike Harland offers the tools worship leaders need to build biblically-faithful and effective worship ministries without bringing the disruption that often accompanies change. Psalm 67:5 reads, "Let the peoples praise you, God, let all the peoples praise you." Worship Essentials is here to help.

The Parent Adventure
Informed by research that reveals destructive parenting patterns are being handed down through most American families (including Christian households), The Parent Adventure looks to the church to help break this cycle and teach moms and dads how to prepare their kids for a lifetime with God. The problem starts when parents raise children based on their personal experiences growing up instead of using the Bible as the timeless, authoritative guide. Although seemingly painful at first, the parental attitude of “letting go” must begin intentionally at birth, keeping in mind that each child’s life is more about knowing God than anything else. With this outlook established, the future-focused mom and dad will move more joyfully through each stage in the adventure of parenting as detailed in the book. Knowing God has a lifelong plan for each family member, parents and kids will grow closer to each other just as sure as they will grow closer to God.

Going This Way
There are many words that could be used to describe Charlie Yates. He was funny, talented, driven, generous, friendly, loving, dependable, trustworthy, courageous, and sometimes annoying and aggravating. When he came into this world, he was but a lump of clay in the Potters hands. Through the years, God kneaded, rolled, turned, shaped, tested, and fired the vessel that became His faithful servant. The stories about Charlie are legend in his circles of influence. He was an aviator, a veteran, a husband, father, teacher, friend, and a child of God. The young sinner and the older, wiser, forgiven sinner lived, created, told, and retold stories. He verbally recounted his stories with great energy and animation, and he also shared them through movies, pictures, and books. The stories were of his adventures, mishaps, jokes, near-death experiences, joys, sorrows, struggles, and battles. After he died, people who knew him wanted to hear more. In this book are some of the stories that reveal the character and transformation of a gifted, yet ordinary, person whom God used for His purposes and His glory.

Through a balance of historical perspective, theological truth, and practical experience, pastor Frank Page and associate music dean L. Lavon Gray encourage pastors and those responsible for leading worship to evaluate their worship in light of these challenges. With these practical ideas, pastors and worship leaders can ensure their church is positioned to weather the changes of pop culture and experience healthy worship.
Worship and Power
Christian worship emerges from and speaks back into human relationships that are necessarily shaped by power and authority. Free Churches structure and negotiate power in relation to worship in ways that reflect the decentralization, local diversity, and personal agency that characterize many aspects of Free Church theology and practice. This volume models how dialogue among scholars and practitioners of Free Church worship, as well as dialogue with the wider church, can be mutually enriching as Christians strive together to worship in ways that are faithful and just.
