Serving the Assembly's Worship: A Handbook for Assisting Ministers

By Christian Scharen

The assisting minister provides, alongside the presiding minister, a consistent presence guiding the assembly's worship, from Gathering to Sending. The assisting minister's leadership in such a significant role will only improve by knowing some history and theology of the liturgy alongside practice with competent teachers.

In this small handbook you will find a brief history of assisting ministers in Christian worship, what makes a good assisting minister, a step-by-step walk through the role, and lots of tips and encouragement. Serving the Assembly's Worship invites assisting ministers to approach this role not just as a task, but as a ministry to the whole assembly.
