Creative Worship

|
This workshop will incorporate some lecture and discussion - small group interaction and powerpoint presentation to talk about the dynamics of creative worship. I plan to incorporate some music into our time together and also reference some sites on the Internet to show examples of what folks are doing. Will talk about and engage participants in discussing "Generation Y" and worship - what makes worship "meaningful and memorable." Hope to have New Century hymnals present and will use some exercises from the book, "The Worship Workshop" by Marcia McFee.
