I wrote this guide for anyone who is interested in alternative worship, but who hasn't tried doing it before. You may have visited a service which was described as 'alternative worship'. If so, this guide may give you some idea whether that description was accurate or helpful. When groups of people start doing alternative worship, they often need a bit of advice, inspiration or empowerment to really believe they can do it. Believe me, if you want to do it, you can do it.
My name's Paul Roberts. I've been doing alternative worship continuously since 1993, and first experienced it in 1990. I was one of the small group of people who founded the Third Sunday Service in Bristol, England, which became Resonance and has now evolved into Foundation. Over the years I've had the pleasure of getting to know many others from around the world who have done similar things, and some of the contents of these pages reflects the wisdom I have learned from them. Thank you people! After 13 years of doing alternative worship, I still love it.
I haven't done much introduction to the 'why' of alternative worship. For further information on that, follow the link called 'definitions' on the main menu above.
So off we go...
