The ideas in this book present the Gospel message in a way that will mean something to every member of the congregation, regardless of their age.

Down To Earth
Down to Earth offers worship leaders a variety of alternatives to the usual Advent, Christmas and Epiphany services and suggests new interpretations of the familiar and deeply loved story of Christ's coming.The 15 services contain imagined reflections by various Bible characters, such as Mary and Joseph, Elizabeth and Zechariah. These reflections may be used in place of a sermon or teaching slot, as the focus of a Eucharistic service, or to form part of an Advent for use in youth groups, secondary school worship and house church.We are challenged to reflect on the familiar Christmas story in a new way and look again at the individuals who met Jesus 2000 years ago. For they were as we are: flawed, frightened, anxious, astonished and changed for ever by their encounter with the living God.

All Age Everything (Revised) *Green Cover*
There are many differing opinions on children and their ability to worship. Some churches aim for frequent all-age services as their way of encouraging children to encounter God, whilst others rely on the groups that children are sent to during the service.

This revised edition of All-Age Everything is full of ideas and suggestions to make all-age worship a true inter generational worship experience. It looks at every part of an all-age service, from how to go about the initial planning, followed by tips for welcomes and beginnings through to endings and blessings. The ideas can be adapted to suit your own church setting, but most of all they make meeting God fun for the entire church family, however young or old.
