Worship In Heaven ... and Why On Earth It Matters

The glimpses of worship in heaven we see in the Bible appear to be very different than our experiences of worship here on earth. Have you ever wondered why that is? If heaven's worship, at least in some measure, is our model -- "Your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven" -- shouldn't we be moving closer to that heavenly pattern? Then why aren't we? And, just as important, how can we? Worship In Heaven...and Why On Earth It Matters, offers real and practical answers to those questions.

And, just as important, how can we? Worship In Heaven...and Why On Earth It Matters, offers real and practical answers to those questions. Not many people will be indifferent toward this book. You’ll either love it, or you’ll hate it. A.W Tozer said, “A church that can’t worship must be entertained; and men who can’t lead a church to worship must provide entertainment.” That statement was made more than 50 years ago, but it is far more relevant for today than Tozer could have imagined. This book is not about contemporary vs. traditional worship. In fact, it’s likely to make people in both camps pretty upset. Really, this book is about biblical worship. Worship In Heaven...and Why On Earth It Matters will challenge your thinking about worship.
