The Worship Quote of the Week for (04/10/2007):

Sola Scriptura
So many Christian congregations are resolved to plan and lead worship in ways that are faithful to biblical teaching; yet these same churches have services that are remarkably diverse. How do we properly read the Bible for instruction in worship planning? Today's WORSHIP QUOTE is from Donald Hustad's TRUE WORSHIP: RECLAIMING THE WONDER AND MAJESTY. This is a wonderful book.

======================
Please see below for news concerning a significant new project in honor of Donald P. Hustad, organist, worship scholar, hymnal editor, and senior professor at The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary.
======================


SOLA SCRIPTURA
How then do we interpret the regulative principle of SOLA SCRIPTURA in our day? I take it that we must be sure that our worship communicates the theology of New Testament Scripture, without compromise. I believe also that the verbal and physical forms mentioned in Acts and the Epistles should all appear in contemporary worship, and that words from both the Old and New Testaments should abound.

—Donald P. Hustad, TRUE WORSHIP: RECLAIMING THE WONDER AND MAJESTY. Carol Stream: Hope Publishing Co., 1998, p. 110. ISBN 0-87788-838-8. Highly recommended.
