Chapter one is off to a great start! Bryan informs us how even the architecture of the church displays and reveals something about your church. Something I haven't thought much about honestly. Chapell moves us to think about the liturgy of the church (defined on page 17-18)and how does it reflect the gospel of Jesus Christ. He provides helpful chart of comparing rome, luther, calvin, westminster and rayburn as liturgy has evolved. he concludes chapter one with the statement "No church true to the gospel will fail to have echoes of these historic liturgies."

The church's worship has always been shaped by its understanding of the gospel. Here the bestselling author of Christ-Centered Preaching brings biblical and historical perspective to discussions about worship, demonstrating that the gospel has shaped key worship traditions and should shape today's worship as well. This accessible and engaging book provides the church with a Christ-centered understanding of worship to help it transcend the traditional/contemporary worship debate and unite in ministry and mission priorities. Contemporary believers will learn how to shape their worship based on Christ's ministry to and through them. The book's insights and practical resources for worship planning will be useful to pastors, worship leaders, worship planning committees, missionaries, and worship and ministry students.
