Doxology & Theology: How the Gospel Forms the Worship Leader

Doxology and Theology is a resource by worship leaders for worship leaders that clearly articulates how these two pieces join together. Contributions from eleven respected worship leaders around the country including:

• Matt Papa (Summit Church, Raleigh-Durham)
• Aaron Keyes (Grace Church, Atlanta)
• Michael Bleecker (The Village Church, Dallas)
• Zac Hicks (Cherry Creek Presbyterian Church, Denver)

Each contributor unites worship with themes of mission, disciple-making, the Word of God, the Trinity, family, and more.

Many in the church see worship leading and theological processing at opposite ends of a big room. Theology is considered the business of pastors and professors, while worship is the business of musicians and rock stars.

But a new wave of young worship leaders is hungry for something different, the desire to think not just pragmatically (sound, charts, guitars) but theologically (the gospel, justice, pastoral ministry) about worship. Likewise, pastors and churches increasingly desire to be led by thoughtful worship leaders who combine doxology and theology.
