A study of the many and varied roles and relationships of the worship leader.
Special emphasis is placed on the relationship between the worship leader and the pastor.
Worship is acknowledging God's worth, that His supremacy and renown are what matter. Exegetical preaching without worship, music without worship, education without worship, perhaps even evangelism without worship are activities that are either done in vain or done with half the heart that God intends. This is not to say that conversions cannot take place, nor that spiritual growth cannot take place, without an understanding of worship and a practice of worship. It is simply to say that worship receives such attention in both the Old and New Testaments that it is clear that a Christian cannot live a healthy life spiritually without it. Furthermore, worship is an eternal attribute of the nature of the believer, while many other activities are temporary, and the worship in heaven is not to begin after death but to be a continuation and perfection of what has already begun in the life of those who are followers of Christ.
