An Intercultural Worship Handbook : Routes, Tools and Guideposts for the Journey

Many church leaders are aware of cultural diversity in their congregations and on their doorsteps but recognize cultural imbalances in their worship practices. How, then, can we move from welcoming worshippers to join us in ‘how we do worship here’, to become a culturally diverse fellowship of equals, where all express their voice and play their part? This book aims to fill the gap between aspiration and actuality. It is a practical handbook rooted in decades of experience. It provides solid foundations from the Bible, theology and cross-cultural mission as well as tested principles from ethnodoxology. It gives advice from practitioners, examples from a host of contexts and a suite of tools for church leaders to use at different times, to guide their congregations to become intercultural in their worship not just multicultural in their numbers.
