More Than Just a Song Leader?

New Kauflin Book Explores the True Significance of the Worship Pastor

Wheaton, IL—Every Sunday, worship leaders around the world—whether armed with a hymnal or a projector—guide fellow Christians in their worship of the living God. But directing worship is about more than just leading songs. It involves plans on Monday morning, words on Wednesday night, and intentions on Friday afternoon. For worship that pleases God is not just a matter of style or of place; both the art and the heart of worship matter.

In a new book by Crossway, Bob Kauflin explores the true significance of the worship leader. Paul Baloche calls Worship Matters: Leading Others to Encounter the Greatness of God “the most complete and most readable discussion on the art and the heart of worship that I have ever read.” Worship Matters zeroes in on the essentials of God-honoring worship and God-honoring worship leaders, combining biblical foundations with practical application. Kauflin, a pastor and noted songwriter, skillfully instructs pastors, musicians, and church leaders so that they can root their congregational worship in unchanging scriptural principles, not divisive cultural trends. Christians from a wide variety of backgrounds will benefit from the blend of theological, devotional, and experiential wisdom that Worship Matters affords.
