About the book
What is worship?
Biblically-speaking, worship might mean a lot of things: a celebration of God and his glory, a display of reverence and awe, an act of humility or prostration before our Creator.
But what does this look like today? And do churches of today—of any tradition or denomination—really worship in a way that's biblical?
Called to Worship is a deep dive into what worship means in the Bible. Vernon Whaley—Dean of the school of music at Liberty University—investigates each individual book of Scripture to uncover the tapestry of instruction and insight into God's idea of worship. With this book, you'll learn:
- How to see through the comfort zones of the modern church's worship rituals and routines.
- The biblical principles of worship and why understanding these principles is essential in our discipleship and important to our creator.
- How the life of Christ serves as a living guide to worship throughout the entire Bible and the history of Christianity.
The Bible describes a rich history of Yahweh worship—offered first by the hosts of heaven in eternity past, and then by mankind, from Creation to present day. This book is a call to understand and participate in that richness.
