Something Old, Something New, Something Borrowed, Something Blue: Principles for Renewing Language in Worship
Debra Rienstra and Ron Rienstra
Calvin Symposium on Worship 2008

This workshop offered tools and ideas for creating rich, balanced language in worship. Participants explored principles for and discuss examples of welcoming traditional language gracefully; composing or improvising elements in fresh language; using songs and prayers to worship with the global church; and finding a place for lament. The session was based on the forthcoming book Worship Words, co-authored by Ron and Debra Rienstra (Baker, 2009).
