It is critical that churches base their worship practices upon unchanging, foundational principles from God's Word. We need a common understanding of what we dare not change from church to church, culture to culture, century to century?even while we celebrate the rich diversity of expression which God delights in and which the New Testament allows for. Twelve principles were presented as a scriptural framework for thinking about, preaching and teaching on, and planning and leading corporate worship.
