Publisher's Synopsis
Dr Don Lynch draws a distinction between christian entertainment and authentic spiritual worship. He celebrates the entertainment of christian musicians, dancers, and fine artists. It as an honorable contribution to the kingdom culture. It gives kingdom culture influence in the existing culture. "Entertainment is part of the culture of the kingdom, and we should honor it. Just don't call it worship," he writes. Dr Don explains the meaning of spiritual worship. He leads us from personal to corporate, from corporate to prophetic, and from prophetic to kingdom worship. He clarifies the distinction between personal and corporate worship. We learn the how and when of surrendering individual worship to the greater assignment of an Ecclesia. This is the basis for prophetic and kingdom worship. He also clarifies when and how we can achieve David's Tent. Worship is kingdom culture normal. He presents the prerequisites of blending intercession and worship. We cannot tell the difference between the two. This book will challenge existing "worship" definitions and practices in modern church-anity. It calls the several mini-movements built with musical foundations to distinction. It strikes a strong blow to the infiltration of the world into the church. Spiritual worship is essential to the New Era Reformation. "Worship is more than stage performance gigs," he concludes. "We will celebrate the 'christian entertainment mountain.' But, it cannot be authentic spiritual worship when it is entertainment." Dr Don also presents a process for change. Perhaps, we leaves most of the Sunday morning entertainment show in place. When the purpose of the Sunday morning event is not kingdom Ecclesia, the weekly crusade for seekers may be valid. Just don't call it Ecclesia. The Sunday venue for kingdom entertainement may work in that setting. Just don't call it worship. If you have any interest in worship at all, you should read this book! It will challenge your thinking, definitions, and perceptions of modern worship. It will clarify the value of kingdom entertainment as it relates to music, dance, and fine arts. It will leave you with more answers than questions. It will challenge everything you now hold as "normal." It will do so with Bible principles and kingdom thinking.
