Session Description
This workshop discusses some fairly broad history, as well as inventions and innovations that are very important as we look across the grand pattern of Biblical people and the human race. Twenty-first century Americans tend to be caught up in the moment and look to the future–it is very easy to ignore the past. In pondering culture's impact upon worship–which today is undergoing the most sweeping change, the biggest burst of creativity, the biggest confusion and disruption that we have ever seen in North America–it is important to look back and remember where we came from.

The Cultural Context of American Worship
This workshop discusses some fairly broad history, as well as inventions and innovations that are very important as we look across the grand pattern of Biblical people and the human race. Twenty-first century Americans tend to be caught up in the moment and look to the future–it is very easy to ignore the past. In pondering culture's impact upon worship–which today is undergoing the most sweeping change, the biggest burst of creativity, the biggest confusion and disruption that we have ever seen in North America–it is important to look back and remember where we came from.
