More About This Book

Overview

Nothing is more essential than knowing how to worship the God who created us. This book focuses readers on the essentials of God-honoring worship, combining biblical foundations with practical application in a way that works in the real world. The author, a pastor and noted songwriter, skillfully instructs pastors, musicians, and church leaders so that they can root their congregational worship in unchanging scriptural principles, not divisive cultural trends. Bob Kauflin covers a variety of topics such as the devastating effects of worshiping the wrong things, how to base our worship on God's self-revelation rather than our assumptions, the fuel of worship, the community of worship, and the ways that eternity's worship should affect our earthly worship.

Appropriate for Christians from varied backgrounds and for various denominations, this book will bring a vital perspective to what readers think they understand about praising God.

    Excellent work

    As one reviewer said the ebook version is filled with typos and other gramatic mistakes, but they don't really detract from the book or its readability, and the wok itself is an excellent work on worship and the the leading of worship that contains useful information for anyone from the worship leader to the lay person who cannot sing very well like myself

    Ebook version filled with typos

    The text is good, useful for generating dialog in the church. The product itself, the ebook, is at times a jumble of false starts, misspellings, and unneccessary hyphenations.
