Worship Ideas: Weeks 5 and 6

I have a few friends who have been keeping up with my Worship Seminars at FBC this fall.  It's been a wonderful opportunity to talk about the theology, biblical foundations, and history of how and why we worship the way we do in the 21st Century.

Week 5
This session covers the history and theology of Praise and Worship - what we commonly call today Contemporary worship.  I learned much as I prepared for this week.

I used a few video examples at the end to demonstrate the elements of Praise and Worship.

Here they are:
1.  Free Chapel Worship (Gainesville, GA):  http://vimeo.com/101257928  This is perfect example to demonstrate the order of Praise Music, Worship Music, and Teaching.

2.  Elevate Church (Charlotte, NC):  http://vimeo.com/102730997  This short interview with the worship leader demonstrates the quality of their video ministry and how they get that "Elevate sound."



Week 6
This session covers the history of worship from our first churches to about 1800.  It's less history and more about how Christians have worshiped through the centuries and what that can teach us about worship for today.  No videos for this week.
