The Worship Leader's Little Helper


There's another new ebook available on FaithandWorship.com, designed to help the Leader of worship with the opening prayers within a service. I've written over 20 complete sets of prayers (including 5 for Advent) alongside some other bits and pieces which might be of help.

The prayers are designed to be printed off on a single sheet of A4 and are set out for ease of use.

The ebook (a PDF download) is £3.99 (or $5.75 if you prefer!) and I hope will prove useful to lots of  people who occasionally get asked to lead prayers, as well as the more experienced Worship Leader.

A Strange Day

I went to church twice yesterday, as usual. The morning service was a united service in a local Presbyterian church. The best description I could come up with for the Minister of that church is that his presentational style sucked the will to live out of me! He was difficult to understand, monotone in delivery and when he was preaching there was no sense of excitement over God's Word, no enthusiasm. It was dreadful. It was worse than dreadful, it was embarrassing!

In the evening I went to our usual fellowship meeting. The worship was wonderful, and the preacher, Hugh Waddell, overflowed with enthusiasm, excitement and a real sense of wonder about the God he was talking about. It was if God was putting back all that had been lost in the morning!

As preachers we have a responsibility to those we share God's Word with. God's Word is exciting, challenging, life changing. It should never be boring!
