Unique synthesis of theology and worship

This unique synthesis of theology and worship represents some of the best thinking about the nature and purpose of worship in the Protestant tradition. A stellar cast of contributors includes John Witvliet, William Dyrness, Leanne Van Dyk, Ronald Byars, Martha Moore-Keish, and David Stubbs. Their six chapters feel connected, not just compiled, and despite their theological richness, the essays are readable and meaningful. Highly recommended not just for worship leaders, but anyone looking to rediscover the purpose of that precious hour of worship on Sunday morning.
