Making Worship Real: A Resource for Youth and Their Leaders

Many youth attend church regularly without fully understanding what worship is and why it is the central action of our faith. In Making Worship Real, Aimee and Bill Buchanan along wiht Jodi Martin provide effective new ways for pastors, Christian educators, yoiuth leaders, and youth themselves to help young people learn about the various elements of worship. This accessible book explains the significance of each part of worship in Presbyterian Church and Reformed congregations and includes activities that have been designed to help youth think creatively about worship. These engaging activities can be used to plan worship services for Sunday mornings, weekend retreats, youth Sundays, and nontraditional worship times. Most importantly, this book is that rare resource that will help youth and their leaders understand why worship is relevant while helping youth lead and participate in worship using their own authentic voice.
