This course is a comprehensive, integrative approach to Christian worship, beginning with biblical foundations and ending with the tools needed to facilitate it in the church today. Topics range from administration of the historic sacraments and ordinances of the church to the use of music and media arts in contemporary worship. The course involves problem based case studies from the student's ministry context and so will require that the student currently be in an approved ministry setting. Prerequisite: MDIV-500
