This Time with Feeling offers an accessible, informative balance of rationale, anecdotes, examples, and invitational prompts to reignite the fire of worship as a personal, emotional experience of the Divine. Worshipers are guided to pay attention to the world around them, as well as the ways that story, music, language, symbols, and ritual in worship may unleash God-encounters that shape belief and practice. Creating worship experiences that engage participants on an emotional level and defining those experiences in the context of the Christian story holds the potential for powerful individual and communal transformation. With a healthy balance of practical and theological reflection, as well as exercises that invite reader engagement, this book will stimulate meaningful personal reflection, dynamic group conversations, inspired participation in worship planning and leadership, and worship experiences that will enliven and grow congregations.
