Matthew,
Thanks for your blog. This is the first time I'm commenting, and so I hope it's helpful.
Another edited by Carson, which is fabulous, is Worship by the Book (Zondervan).
Marva Dawn's books are also very thought-provoking.
Best is another major thinker on Worship to consider.

True Worship by Vaughan Roberts might be worth adding.
I think the best book is really old and written by various authors...
...it's called "The Book of Psalms"
- I know, there's always one in every crowd. :-)
- Pastor Brett
Thanks, guys!
Patrick - I've only seen Marva Dawn's books on shelves. A friend gave me "Royal Waste of Time", but I've never read it. Perhaps the title put me off. Is that the best place to start with her work?
Ken - If you are who I think you are, I could have written that comment for you!
Pastor Brett - wow. You are my hero. :-)
