More About the Author
Product Description
Book Description
A practical resource for creating simple but profound worship, filled with ideas, cartoons and a new way of doing things.
From the Author
Cooking Up Worship compares worship with a meal. Why is this? 1)
Whatever you do, it will never be to everybody's taste. 2)
You mix together various ingredients to make the whole. 3)
Good quality ingredients make a good quality meal. 4)
Some ingredients blend well together. 5)
Some people will be the equivalent of militant vegans and will be offended if you include something they don't like. 6)
Some people will be obsessive about etiquette and will go berserk if you don't do everything in what they think is just the right order and just the right way. 7)
Some people only like the sweet bits and aren't bothered about nourishment. 8)
Some people go from place to place sampling the products until they are satisfied. 9)
Some people enjoy complaining no matter how good it is. 10)
What really counts is not how clever you are, but how good it tastes. 11)
The best cooks sometimes have disasters. 12)
It's easier to eat than to cook. Maybe you can work out some more comparisons of your own! Cooking Up Worship takes the whole analogy further to give real insights for raw recruits and old hands alike. Twelve Chapters of practical ideas are fully illustrated with cartoons, recipes and successful case-studies. As yet, nobody has described it as being "not controversial enough", but I live in hope.

Stimulating and Challenging,
By brian.lantz@uce.ac.uk (England) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Cooking Up Worship: A Practical Resource for Creating Simple But Profound Worship (Paperback)
As a person considering entering the lay ministry of the Methodist church, I have found this book challenges, in the way I would want to, the standard 'turn off' style of worship that I have survived over the years. The premise that Christ's message is the central part of the service and that everything else is potentially changable gives this young 52 year old hope that we can change things. Have only begun reading a borrowed copy, but have now purchased it for my self. Looking forward to finishing it and possibly putting some of the ideas into practice.

Breath of fresh air,
By A Customer
This review is from: Cooking Up Worship: A Practical Resource for Creating Simple But Profound Worship (Paperback)
This book is a breath of fresh air, with just the right combination of advice, opinion and humour. There are certainly bits that I would challenge, but the book is all the better for being thought-provoking.
4.0 out of 5 stars
Food for thought!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Cooking Up Worship: A Practical Resource for Creating Simple But Profound Worship (Paperback)
A thought-provoking and irreverant approach to leading worship. Sunday services will never be the same again (but my stomach will rumble more than ever). Full of usable ideas for worship leaders, and a great Whisky Pud recipe.
