Looking for an online community of worship leaders? Check out The Worship Community.

Here’s more from the site: 

TheWorshipCommunity.Com (TWC) is a grass-roots community of worship leaders, artists, singers, musicians, and technicians from all over the world.

TWC was launched in the Spring of 2007 by Fred McKinnon, a worship pastor and small business owner.  Fred has been involved in bring worship “online” for years, with the original HighestPraise.Com site that was offering free downloads of original worship music more than decade ago.  He continues to blog about worship, ministry, and leadership each week at http://www.fredmckinnon.com.

“Version 1″ of TWC launched with public forums for discussions about worship, technology, songs, and planning.  “Version 2″ of TWC launched in July 2008 with the new “e-zine” format including articles, how-to, reviews, featured videos, and interactive discussions.

One of the things that sets TheWorshipCommunity.Com apart is the grass-roots nature of the content.  Our articles are written by contributors all over the world who are “in the trenches” …. leading worship in small, medium, and large churches.  We combine exclusive content with re-published articles from what we discover as “the best of” from worship and ministry-related blogs, discussion forums, and resources.

Rockbridge  Seminary students who have completed the online course “The Theology and Practice of Worship,” especially those who are worship leaders, may benefit from this learning community focused exclusively on worship.

Taking Another Look At Liturgy

April 15, 2009

Rethinking the value of liturgyI don’t think I’m alone … taking a fresh look at spiritual practices used over the centuries that could enhance my worship of God. For the first time in my life, I walked the Stations of the Cross on Good Friday and found it very moving. 

Several days before, I was fascinated to read a discussion about liturgy among an Eastern Orthodox priest, an Anglican priest, a Southern Baptist pastor, a Roman Catholic, a United Methodist pastor, and a Lutheran pastor. 

Rockbridge Seminary students who have completed the online seminary courses ”Church History I/II,” “Practicing the Spiritual Disciplines,” or “The Theology and Practice of Worship” might find the discussion quite interesting.
