new Wineskins magazine
New Worship Resource
from The Zoe Group
New Wineskins is a contemporary magazine that seeks to help churches and Christians engage and transform culture in the image of Christ and the cross. While Wineskins magazine began in 1992 with roots in the Restoration movement, churches of Christ, and the Christian Churches, we are seeking to dialogue with Christians in all Christian denominations who lift up Christ as the son of God, Lord, and Savior and who are seeking unity and discussion between traditional and contemporary worship styles, interpretive methods, evangelistic and preaching styles. Contributors to our magazine in 2001 include Lynn Anderson, Max Lucado, Rubel Shelly, Mike Cope, Randy Harris, Leonard Sweet, Larry Crabb, and Greg Taylor.
