Distinctive Worship - book review - word-on-the-web

So what is it about?	Andy Flannagan is a popular worship leader who has appeared at events such as Spring Harvest, Summer Madness, New Wine and Greenbelt. He also works for British Youth For Christ. As such, he is passionate about understanding how young people tick so that he can create relevant worship for them. This book is an exhaustive and thorough collection of his findings, with principles, suggestions and true-life stories.
Who is it for?	Although Andy Flannagan is a worship leader, in recent years he has devoted much of his time to mentoring young leaders. This book is for them - people who, like Andy, want to know more about how to inspire young people to worship God.
Does it do what it says on the label?	Yes, in an easy to read but detailed way. There is even an appendix that contains 75 ideas for worship exercises which alone is worth the cost of the book and will be indispensible to any youth leader who is desperate for ideas.
Enjoy or endure?	Enjoy. Andy Flannagan isn't someone who is writing about young people from afar - this book stems from his own experience of leading youth in worship over the years.
Any other comments?	This is part of a series of books for youth leaders, called "Youthwork the resources", brought out by Youthwork magazine. For more information about this series, go to: http://www.youthwork.co.uk/resources/
