EBOOK
About
Worship...Are We Doing It Correctly? Is an expanded publication of a previous
booklet entitled Worship Is... a thirty-day guide for individual worship. Between
the covers of this book the author adds the contributions of three of his fellow
brothers in Christ adding matters pertaining to corporate worship. His friends bring
significant years of involvement in planning and executing worship in local churches.
James Dodson served over 15 years on the staff of a church which Dr. Lake pastored
for 28 years. Jim is known for his excellence in planning and leading worship. He is
known as a phenomenal pianist, soloist and worship leader. He and his wife Sharon
have three daughters: two living in the US and one in heaven.
Dean Jones served as the Minister of Worship for over 20 years at the same church
and manifested his leadership capabilities filling other areas of ministry until vacancies
were filled. Dean is known for his choral directing and building a 100+ member
choir which he lead as a spiritual experience for those who participated. Dean and
his wife, Barbara, have been married over 50 years and are proud of their one son,
one daughter-in-law and four beautiful grandchildren.
For several years (prior to Covid-19) James and Dean joined Charles in conducting
bi-annual community hymn sings which attracted over 1000 local church members for
each event. The hymn sings spoke loudly of each of their commitments to preservation
of the old hymns of the church and their place in today's blended worship.
Lynn Keesecker met Dr. Lake when he was a teenager, attending a Christian youth
trip to Latin America. As a young, accomplished pianist, Lynn became accompanist
for youth camps Charles directed. Lynn's growth in his walk with the Lord lead him
to serve with his music talents in several different roles; song writer, pianist, worship
leader and chief creative administrator of one of the largest Christian music companies
in America. Lynn is the father of three adult children, two sons and a daughter.
The four gentlemen are still close friends who meet annually for a spiritual retreat. Dr.
Lake feels strongly blessed to have the other three join him in presenting this book.
