Best Worship Planning Team Ever

In Howard Vanderwell’s The Church of All Ages: Generations Worshiping Together, it’s suggested that worship planning at churches should be age-inclusive.  In other words, it shouldn’t just be adults planning the church worship; teenagers and even children should be involved also.  That way their preferences and Kingdom dreams are represented, along with the adults’.

So often we think intergenerational worship means we ask children to read Scripture and pray.  That’s not a bad start, but it’s all the better if children are involved even during the planning process.  That’s true inclusion.
