The altar sits at the heart of the worship space, reminding everyone that here is where we lift our hearts up to God. Often the altar is decorated, but almost always in the same way: with flowers, candles, or a cross. But what if the altar could be made a more integral part of the worship experience? What if the visual elements on the altar could be designed to fit in with that Sunday’s scriptures, hymns, prayers, and sermon? And what if it could be done, not only beautifully, but simply and inexpensively, so that churches of any size could benefit from this enhancement to their worship?That is just what Nancy Townley and Stephanie Davis are offering in this helpful and practical book. Worship leaders and artists, they have assembled dozens of beautiful, worshipful altar designs, pictures of which appear in the book. Detailed instructions accompany the artwork and illustrate how to create the design, and how and where to find or purchase the component elements with the least effort and expense. Designed with the needs of small membership and mid-size churches in mind, this volume offers indispensable guidance for anyone who wants to make worship a more enriching and transforming experience.

This publication is a compilation of poetry written over a twenty-year period. Its purpose and objective are to inspire, encourage, and motivate through various situations and to provide spiritual awareness during times in our lives when we are both joyful and melancholy, facing trials, tribulations, and uncertainty about the present and future.

The publication demonstrates that God''s infallible Scripture can also be translated into poetry. I pray this book serves as a reference or meaningful guide in the future, during times when the reader needs to feel enlightened, requires encouragement, or seeks spiritual guidance and assurance of God''s help and presence in their life. I hope the reader enjoys this publication.
