Good books on Reformed Worship?

[ChariotsofFire]

I am interested in reading some good books on worship, and I am particularly interested in the regulative principle.. I currently own "With Reverence and Awe" by Hart and Muether. Any other recommended reading on the subject? Thank you kindly in advance.

Westminster Directory of Public Worship: Discussed by Mark Dever and Sinclair Ferguson

 

[Confessor]

Dr. Daniel F. N. Ritchie has written his own book on the Regulative Principle of Worship. Although I've only read excerpts, I have found it is both very informative and very easy to read. I especially enjoyed his section on head coverings that I read recently (pp. 90ff.).

 

[21st Century Calvinist]

1)The Patristic Roots of Reformed Worship by Hughes Oliphant Old.
2)Guides to the Reformed Tradition: Worship by Hughes Oliphant Old.
3)Worship by the Book Ed. by DA Carson
4)A Better Way: The drama of Divine Worship by Michael Horton
5)Leading in Worship by Terry Johnson

Cautious recommendation for The Lord's Service:the Grace of Covenant Renewal Worship by Jeff Meyers.

Calvin's The Necessity of Reforming the Church

Jeremiah Burroughs, Gospel Worship

I would second the recommendations above - Gospel Worship, by Burroughs and With Reverence and Awe by Hart and Muether - and then to add Reformed Worship: Worship that is Reformed According to the Scripture, by Terry Johnson.

I've also just had recommended to me a new reprint by Abraham Kuyper entitled "Our Worship". Looks very good, but I've not got it yet.

Hi Josh,

Since you are a member of a URC (say hello to Rev. Nymeyer as we miss him out here!) let me point you to several works by URC pastors/professors:

J. Mark Beach, Reformed Worship and Reforming Worship (mp3/outlines available through Mid-America Reformed Seminary)
R. Scott Clark, Recovering the Reformed Confession
Michael Horton, A Better Way
Daniel R. Hyde, What to Expect in Reformed Worship: A Visitor's Guide

 

[Hamalas]

This is a good introductory book:

Amazon.com: Give Praise to God: A Vision for Reforming Worship : Celebrating the Legacy of James Montgomery Boice: Philip Graham Ryken, Derek W. H. Thomas, J. Ligon., III Duncan, James Montgomery Boice: Books

Hart and Muether's Book is excellent so is Give Praise to God. I also highly recommend

Amazon.com: Worship in the Presence of God: Frank, J. Smith, David, C. Lachman: Books

Amazon.com: Worship (Revised and Expanded Edition): Hughes Oliphant Old: Books

Amazon.com: Themes and Variations for a Christian Doxology: Mr. Hughes Oliphant Old: Books

Someone referenced Worship by the Book by Carson. I think there are much better books out there than that one.

Man O man, I forgot all about Horton Davies. How could I have forgotten about him???
