BRINGING YOU RELEVANT INSPIRATION, RIGHT FOR THIS MOMENT
September 2024
Have You Heard the News?
Starting next July, Reformed Worship will no longer be producing a quarterly print or digital edition but will be posting any new resources and articles directly to the website ReformedWorship.org for free. No new subscriptions or renewals will be taken as of October 1, 2024, when we will make around 400 more articles available for free on our website. On July 1, 2025, all Reformed Worship articles will be available online.
As a sneak peek into the new material that will be available beginning in July 2025, the articles and resources highlighted in this e-newsletter have already been unlocked.
If you are a subscriber who missed the email about this or has questions about the remaining Reformed Worship print/digital issues, please see the FAQs here. The final print/digital issue will be RW 156, June 2025.
One of the strengths of Reformed Worship is that the resources we publish come from churches just like yours. Whether your church is small or large, urban or rural, in North America or beyond, if you have been blessed by a particular worship service, series, prayer, or litany, consider submitting it to Reformed Worship to be a blessing to others (see How to Submit an Article).

The Art of Neighboring
A Six-Week Series Exploring the Greatest Commandment
What does it mean to be a neighbor, and how do we encourage our worshiping communities to be good neighbors wherever they live or spend their days? This six-week series arose from a congregational book study of Jay Pathak and Dave Runyon's book The Art of Neighboring. In addition to outlines for six worship services, this series includes a theme song, suggestions for how to include children in an art project, and suggestions for social media or bulletin announcements. As always, you are encouraged to adapt this series to fit your own context.
Ten Lessons from Ireland for Leading Worship in Difficult Times
While the Northern Irish context and its unique political tensions might not map neatly onto challenges facing your own community, there is still much to be learned from those who lived through the Troubles. These ten lessons are meant to encourage leaders to consider helpful ways of leading worship, particularly through preaching and prayers, in times of division.
Sound Theology surveys the liturgical soundscape during and after the Reformation with regard to the use of instruments in worship in general, and the (dis)use of the pipe organ specifically.
