Through the Ages provides a practical, historical and
philosophical study of the Great Spiritual Awakenings as related to the worship
of evangelicals around the globe. This is a fascinating story that reveals a unifying,
unbroken thread of events whereby one can trace the development of worship
practices through the ages.
With each move of God came a change in the way people
worshiped. New paradigms were created, debated, accepted and passed on to the
next generation. Narrative for this study is energized by telling "the
story" of engaging personalities, influencers and movers and shakers.
Emphasis is given to changes in worship practices from the Early Church ,
Reformation, the Great Awakenings, revival movements, large evangelistic
crusades of the 1940s and 1950s, Jesus Movement, and the Praise and Worship
movement. A chart tracing the development of worship from Genesis 4 to the
twenty-first century is included.
This is a
wonderful book about the history of worship and revivals. it clearly
demonstrates how powerful worship can be when done from the heart. Worship
plays a HUGE role in revival and awakenings. this book will take you on a
journey through some of the awakenings and see how worship was always involved.
