    Worship Old and New
    (Zondervan, 1994-04-14) Robert E. Webber
    In the preface to the first edition of Worship Old and New, | wrote: “the pri- mary value of the book is as a classroom text in seminary and college courses on worship. However, it should also be of interest to pastors, Christian education directors, worship committees, and laypersons who wish to be more informed on the subject.” In this second edition of Worship Old and New, I have resisted the temp- tation to write a simplistic and popular introduction to worship. Instead, I have maintained the scholarly flavor of the book and continue to see it as an acade- mic introduction to the vast field of worship studies. Since Worship Old and New was published eleven years ago, an enormous quantity of books covering every aspect of worship has emerged. Additionally, the fires of worship renewal have spread in every direction. I have interacted with this renewed interest in worship in this revised edition. While a good portion of the original text has been maintained, the entire work has undergone significant re- vision. The material has been reorganized into four major divisions: The Biblical Foundations of Worship, A Biblical Theology of Worship, A Brief History of Worship, and The Practice of Worship.
