"In Culturally-Conscious Worship, Kathy Black makes an important contribution to the emerging reality of multicultural worship. The book helps persons who seek to design weekly worship services that are genuinely sensitive to culturally and linguistically diverse congregations. Black shows how shared stories plus blended music and arts can enliven worship in such congregations. She also provides biblical and theological foundations and practical methods and models, as well as addressing misunderstandings that impede culturally-conscious worship. Most useful of all are indexes of hymns and worship resources from varied cultures found in readily available sources such as denominational hymnals." Ruth C. Duck, Garrett-Evangelical Theological Seminary "Kathy Black gives hope and an anchor to those of us who have struggled to create worship services that are relevant in a multi-contextual world. And she accomplishes this without trivailizing the sometimes overwhelming complexity of cultures within our faith communities." Eric H. F. Law, Trainer and consultant on building inclusive communities and author
