As Christians, we know we're supposed to be holy, set apart, and different than the world. But the reality is, the lives of many Christians look a lot more like the culture than like Christ. The question the devout are seeking today is, what does it really look like to follow Christ in a culture of darkness? In this short book, Dale Partridge assaults the watered-down, lukewarm Christianity that is harbored in many modern churches and replaces it with the raw, biblical Gospel found in the New Testament.

"Worship in the Shape of Scripture"—first published in 2001—is a practical resource for worship planners and leaders that provides guidelines for applying homiletic concepts to all areas of worship planning. Due to its success, it has been revised and updated. Mitman demonstrates how the structure of worship is (or can be) rooted in Scripture itself. He raises essential questions and reflects on broad themes for worshiping congregations to consider for the sake of faithful praise. Foreword by Marva J. Dawn.

Worshiping God is one of the believer’s highest callings. Music and song have been a timeless way to glorify God throughout history. Scripture itself is full of musical and poetic praises dedicated to the Lord. Using a unique combination of songs and reflections, the NIV Worship Together Bible blends modern-day worship and culture with the beloved Word of God. This Bible helps you embrace God as your loving Father and shows you how to exalt him through song and reflection. The musical inspiration in this Bible will remind you of the importance of constantly striving to be Christlike. As Pastor Jack Hayford, the author of the song “Majesty,” once put it: “Worship changes the worshiper into the image of the One worshiped.” Features: • The complete text of the world’s most popular modern-English Bible, the NIV • Lyrics to the top 100 worship songs • Song notes and reflections from the songwriters • Simple chord charts for the Top 20 worship songs • Essay that explores the purpose and history of worship music • Foreword by Matt Maher • Index to organize songs by scriptural reference

Sing! has grown from Keith and Kristyn Getty’s passion for congregational singing; it’s been formed by their traveling and playing and listening and discussing and learning and teaching all over the world. And in writing it, they have five key aims: • to discover why we sing and the overwhelming joy and holy privilege that comes with singing • to consider how singing impacts our hearts and minds and all of our lives • to cultivate a culture of family singing in our daily home life • to equip our churches for wholeheartedly singing to the Lord and one another as an expression of unity • to inspire us to see congregational singing as a radical witness to the world They have also added a few “bonus tracks” at the end with some more practical suggestions for different groups who are more deeply involved with church singing. God intends for this compelling vision of His people singing—a people joyfully joining together in song with brothers and sisters around the world and around his heavenly throne—to include you. He wants you,he wants us, to sing.
