If the church is to remain faithful and relevant in the third millennium, it must be in tune with alternative worship, a refreshing blend of first-century faith with twenty-first-century technology and language. With one hand in the past and one in the future, Alternative Worship delivers an original collection of resources for receptive churches in the mainstream or those on the progressive edge. Arranged around major festivals of the church year -- Advent and Christmas, Lent, Easter, and Pentecost -- its unique liturgies and prayers, innovative yet meaningful rituals, and informative and challenging views of the alternative worship scene make this book the most comprehensive postmodern worship resource available. The accompanying interactive CD-ROM offers easy access to ambient sounds, stimulating visuals, and modern music to enrich your alternative worship experience.
The KJV Apocrypha in a single volume. The Apocrypha ('hidden things') are contemporaneous with the Old Testament, but were not officially accepted as part of the Bible when the Hebrew 'canon' was set. They did, however, form part of the Greek Scriptures and came into English Bibles by that route. The writings of the Apocrypha run the whole gamut of literary genres: histories, romances, devotional works, proverbs and sermons. Many complement parts of the Old Testament and readers will recognise some familiar Biblical characters in the narratives, such as Daniel and Esther.
