Session Description
I looked for healthy congregations with stable leadership and who had ongoing conversations about worship. I did a similar research project about eight years ago, and it was very hard to find congregations that embodied the kind of congregational life I was trying to describe. When I started this project, it was easy. However, even with the careful selection process, when I asked the congregations about how they talk about worship, they would say that they didn't talk about worship. The next question I asked was why? So, I have reasons to present about why people don't talk about worship.

Talking About Worship: How to Start and Sustain Faithful Conversations
I looked for healthy congregations with stable leadership and who had ongoing conversations about worship. I did a similar research project about eight years ago, and it was very hard to find congregations that embodied the kind of congregational life I was trying to describe. When I started this project, it was easy. However, even with the careful selection process, when I asked the congregations about how they talk about worship, they would say that they didn't talk about worship. The next question I asked was why? So, I have reasons to present about why people don't talk about worship.
