Description

" The writings of Tozer and this book in particular have had a profound impact on my personal worship, worship leading and worship songwriting." -- Tommy Walker "Personal Quote for Book" A. W. TOZER began his lifelong pursuit of God at the age of seventeen after hearing a street preacher. He never attended high school or seminary—his spiritual understanding came from the power of the Word and the power of the Spirit. While serving as a pastor and magazine editor, he wrote prolifically about basic spiritual disciplines and their relationship to contemporary life. His powerful use of words continues to grip the intellect and stir the soul of today's reader.

Features & Highlights

  • A.W. Tozer calls God the "Composer of the Cosmos," the "Chief Musician of the Universe." God signals the birds to chirp their beautiful tune in the coolness and tranquility of a spring morning, simply because that is what He designed them to do. Each note is wonderfully constructed by God, uniquely bringing praise to His name. With this inspiring perspective on worship, Tozer invites readers to take a deep look at the ways in which we worship and why. He reminds us that we were created solely for this purpose and that worshipping the Father and seeking His fellowship is our primary task. It is also His delight. The newest revised edition now includes "Worship: The Missing Jewel of the Evangelical Church," first published in the Alliance Life magazine in 1965, and still so profound today.

Worship is the 'vitamin pill' for true worship of Yaw?

I have read a lot of books by Tozer and they always inspire me. His writings go beyond surface knowledge because they usher the reader into the Holy of Holy's. That is what this book can do for the reader. It helped me to just not know, but to feel what true worship is.

A Must Read- We Need To Restore WORSHIP

Tozer is one of the most powerful writers of our time- I strongly recommend reading this work. One of the things I like about Tozer's writings is that his thoughts flow out of the scripture, and you can track what he is saying and his interpretations through the scriptures. And he is extremely practical in his theology, so there is very little "fluff" in what he says.

Even beyond that, Tozer addresses with pin-point accuracy and piercing clarity the desperate need to restore proper worship to the assembly again!

Worship; a greater calling than we realize

I have never found myself disappointed in anything Tozer has written. It is obvious that he "walked" with God and had a greater understanding of the Holy Spirit than most.
Do not let the size of this book fool you, it is radiant and impactful. Tozer gives the problems of worship, the answers to true worship, and an exceptional picture of who we worship. I could almost highlight every sentence.
