ABSTRACT
This chapter begins by recognizing that the books in its literature pool clustered around five emphases all of life, gathered devotion, sacramental recovery, evangelistic worship, and organically missional. Adequately discrete from one another, the groups have indeed helped make sense of the differences between various authors. They have suggested why certain values, preferences, and theological convictions tend to cluster together. Furthermore, they have surfaced ways in which various historic evangelical tradition-streams persist within the melting-pot of present-day evangelicalism. Still, although the emphasis groups do a good job of describing the pool of literature for this project, the five groups fail to account for the entire phenomenological range of evangelical worship. Any attempt to adapt the emphasis groups into an adequate typology for evangelical worship would need to include such a Pentecostal/charismatic perspective. Another way of strengthening the group categories would be to further develop the organically missional category.
