Readers will discover that God intends worship to be an unforgettable encounter between Himself and His people—a joyous experience engaging the worshiper’s entire being.Review: Good book on the elements of worship. Interesting for a new convert or for someone who is thinking about worship. Agree with the music during worship, but number one thing I found interesting is how the music of hymns were sometimes tavern tunes. I do not mind modern tunes, but I do believe much of music in church is like a concert not for the congregation. I attended worship where no one sage the hymns because the stylization was not in sync with the screen or in the program. The look of a sanctuary and how things in the building are labeled are all important. I also think that how we view going to church is important. This book was packed with the varied views of other denominations. I would like to thank Net Galley and David C. Cook for allowing me to read and review this book in return for a free copy and I was never asked to write a favorable review by anyone. I am disclosing this in accordance with the Federal Trade Commission's 16 CFR, Part 255: "Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5R. C. Sproul addresses the theology behind worship in this book which is ideally suited to be a quarterly study for Sunday School, Wednesday night study, or small group in a church. Sproul's Presbyterian leanings come out in this volume so those who are of other religious persuasions, particularly Baptists and other denominations which do not support infant baptism, may not find this volume appropriate. He addressed issues such as the presence of Christ in the Lord's supper, the mode of baptism, and infant baptism. As is expected, the author finds prayer to be an important part of worship. He also briefly addressed houses of worship and symbolism. The amount of time he spends on the style of worship is much shorter than I anticipated it would be. He acknowledges differences and really doesn't make much of a point except to say that orchestral music is biblical. The book was somewhat disappointing. I did not agree with all of the author's theological leanings. This review was based on an advance e-galley received by the publisher through NetGalley.
