IS HOW WE WORSHIP TRULY BIBLICAL? There's only one way to find out: see what the Bible has to say. And that's exactly what Called to Worship is all about. From Genesis to Revelation, every book in the Scriptures gives instruction and insight into God's plan for worship. With this book, you'll learn from Biblical heroes and ordinary people. Compare Old and New Testament practices. Glean insight from Biblical poetry and the Books of Wisdom. And most important, you'll see how the life of Christ serves as a living guide to worship.
" A must read book for every student of worship, Vernon M. Whaley has completed a monumental task gathering the principles, processes and practices of worship drawn from scriptural narratives spanning the entire Bible." -Charles E. Fromm, Ph.D., Publisher of Worship Leader Magazine
"Called To Worship is the most comprehensive book on Worship I've ever read. The depth of scriptures on Worship is incredible." - Dr. Ricky Skaggs, Bluegrass Musician and Worshiper of Jesus Christ
