This resource, originally published in 1988, has become a basic text in the study of church music, as well as serving as a handbook for church music leaders, pastors, music committee members, and others. Westermeyer has updated and expanded the volume to reflect the current challenges of contemporary culture, musical and worship styles, and integrity to the gospel. More than a "how-to" manual for musicians, this book is an interdisciplinary study of worship, music, and theology accessible to everyone.

Because our relationships with our animal companions are unlike human relationships, the death of a pet is like no other loss that we will experience. In this book, Betty J. Carmack draws on the wisdom of Ecclesiastes, her own experience, and interviews with dozens of pet lovers to guide the reader through the initial loss of a pet to the dawning of new hope and reassurance.

All Christians face the challenges of discipleship, and all feel, one time another, that they have fallen short. Focusing on New Testament stories about the Apostle Peter, pastor Scott Walker asks: How does Peter’s predicament apply to my life? What can I learn through Peter’s experience that will make me a better Christian disciple? In his gentle, thoughtful style, Walker illuminates the theme that it is only through struggle and personal failure that we grow stronger in our faith and in our understanding of Jesus.

It is an attempt to interpret Luther’s theology for our own day. The fundamental theme of the book is the "down-to-earth" character of Luther’s theology. In using this theme, Forde points out that we have failed to understand the basic t
