[edit] Life
Vaughan Roberts was an undergraduate at Selwyn College, University of Cambridge, where he was President of the Christian Union. He moved to Oxford to serve as curate under David Fletcher at St. Ebbe's church. One of his responsibilities was to look after the student work. When David Fletcher retired, Roberts became Rector of St. Ebbe's.
He has written a number of Christian books including Turning Points, Distinctives, True Worship, God's Big Picture, and Life's Big Questions.
True Worship explores the differences between Old Testament religion and worship under the new covenant. It examines what is sung in contemporary evangelical church services and why, and offers advice on how to choose worship music.[4]
