Summary: Insights on music are worth the price of the book
Comment: Where John Frame's book proves especially helpful is in the area of music within Christian worship. Certain churches have found themselves in literal battlegrounds over music styles. Frame reminds his readers that when the focus moves away from the center-God-and focuses on something that is not-musical styles-then the church has lost something vital. Frame's insights on the use of music in worship makes this a worthwhile read.

Summary: Overall my favorite on worship
Comment: If you are familiar with John Frame, you know that he is one of the best Christian theological writers around. With degrees from Princeton and Yale and thirty years of teaching at the seminary and graduate level (Westminister Sem. and Reformed Sem.), he is a very sharp guy and a deep thinker. But his talent comes in the way he is able to synthesize difficult concepts and place them in accessible and easily understood language.
This is one of his best books. In fact, it is my favorite single book on worship. He is coming from a Reformed perspective, with a commitment to the regulative principle of worship. But he has an openness whihc enables him to see beyond the social accidents of his tradition and go back to Scripture for correction and guidance. He is able to sort out what is inconsistent in his tradition with the main impulses that have driven it. he also is good at sorting out the modern equivalents to ancient Biblical directives.
Thsi book discusses the proper elemenst of worship, various styles, and content. It is always fresh, accessible, challenging, and insightful, even when you disagree with the author. I highly recommend it.
If you are looking for other approaches somewhat at varience with Frame, you might try: Terry Johnson (more rigid), Hughes O. Old (more liturgically rich; extremely good), or Robert Rayburn (a generation older and sometimes wiser).
