Q & R: worship

Q:

Hi! I checked your website to see when and where you’ll be speaking, but I don’t know what you’ll be speaking about! 🙂
I guess why I say that is because I’m interesting in attending a conference or event when you’ll be speaking about worship/music/arts in the church (or even “outside” the church). 🙂 I have been a worship leader at an interdenominational church for many years and have been challenged by your thoughts about music in the church. I would love to hear you speak!
Would you be able to let me know if you are speaking on worship (or even something more general, but relating) and where and when that will be!
Thanks so much!

R: As you can imagine, after being a pastor for 20+ years, this is a topic close to my heart. I wrote about worship a bit in Finding Our Way Again, and I joyfully speak on the subject whenever I’m invited to do so …
But the next time worship will be the main focus of an event in which I’ll be involved will be January 8-10 in Pennsylvania. Information here … This isn’t a “Brian McLaren event,” but it’s an event where I’ll be present as a participant and will hopefully have some small contribution to offer as well. Hope to see you there!
