Anyone who has attended church over the past few years has experienced a dizzying array of worship experiences from the mundane to the divine, from the inconsequential to the relevant, from the phony to the authentic. Never before have Christians been faced with such choices.

In this helpful (and much-needed) book, author Robb Redman-pastor, consultant, and educator-offers a unique insider's explanation of the ins and outs of Christian worship trends. The book explores the four major developments that comprise what he calls the "worship awakening": the seeker service movement, the "praise and worship" movement, the Christian worship music industry, and the liturgical renewal movement. Redman explains that these trends offer important examples and lessons for established churches. The Great Worship Awakening also includes helpful guidance for congregations who are considering making changes to their current worship style.

Robb Redman is a leading consultant for churches involved in worship redesign and innovation and has served as a consulting editor for Worship Leader< magazine. Currently a pastor of Forest Hills Presbyterian Chruch in Helotes, Texas, a suburb of San Antonio, he was a vice president at Maranatha! Music and formerly director of the Doctor of Ministry program at Fuller Theological Seminary in Pasadena, California.
