"In our journeys as worship pastors and leaders of teams, we have constantly been on the hunt for resources to equip teams and students in the areas of worship and leadership. But, most of what has been available was informational in nature and seemed dry and one-dimensional in its delivery and didn’t hold interest. We wanted something more interactive, creative, and story-driven.
During my (Michael) own prayer times of asking God for direction, a powerful metaphor emerged. What I had personally experienced with an adventure guide in the wild many years before served as catalyst for launching The Way of Worship. Story is not merely information, it’s invitation. In the parables of Jesus, his stories invite us into the narrative and give us a memorable way to unlock the truths of the Scriptures.
Through memorable and creative story-training, our vision was to write a book to help teams not only get a comprehensive lesson from the Scriptures, but to help them remember it. Stories sink the information deep into our souls. Story carries the truths from the head to the heart. We want these stories and the lessons derived from them will shape a generation of worshipers."
—Michael & Vernon
