Suffering, Soul Care, and Community: The Place of Lament in Corporate Worship - Hardcover
by Ann Ahrens (Author), Eric L. Johnson (Foreword by)
What are believers to do when belief and lived experience collide? Must the experience of suffering be hidden or pushed aside in favor of only "positive" expressions of praise during corporate worship? Focusing on the premise that "worship is not pain denial," this book seeks to reveal the dearth of soul care within modern corporate worship, and the multidisciplinary approach needed to build and implement a more thorough approach that calls and enables believers to weep with those who weep, to bear one another's burdens, and continue Christ's ministry of reconciliation.
Ann Ahrens has taught music and worship at the undergraduate and graduate levels for twenty-five years. She earned a PhD in Christian worship from The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary and master's degrees in music and theology.
