Blending Worship for the 21st Century Military Force

Abstract

This research project will study the concept of blending worship for the current military force. Members of the current military force represent a variety of worship backgrounds and spiritual needs. This study will identify the characteristics of two worship traditions: traditional and contemporary. These two worship traditions have become more distinct in recent years as our society evolves in the 21st Century. Because of worship style variations between these two traditions, service members and their families would be best served through separate worship congregations. When this is not possible, blending worship may be an acceptable option. This research will examine the impact of blending worship for these two worship traditions for the current military force.
