Recommended Reading for December

Worship Matters: Leading Others to Encounter the Greatness of God
by Bob Kauflin…
Nothing is more essential than knowing how to worship the God who created us. This book focuses readers on the essentials of God-honoring worship, combining biblical foundations with practical application in a way that works in the real world. The author, a pastor and noted songwriter, skillfully instructs pastors, musicians, and church leaders so that they can root their congregational worship in unchanging scriptural principles, not divisive cultural trends.

“Bob Kauflin is teaching a new generation to take corporate worship seriously in a fashion that is simultaneously biblically faithful and addressing today’s culture.”
-D. A. Carson, Research Professor of New Testament, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School

Copies of the book can be ordered from the Church office for $13.
