Editorial Reviews

Product Description
Too often Christians have only thought of worship in terms of particular musical styles or liturgical formats. But a proper view of worship is far larger than what takes place in churches on Sunday mornings. All of us, Christian or not, are always worshiping, whether or not that worship is directed toward God. We are unceasing worshipers.

In this fruition of a lifetime of study, reflection and experience, Harold Best casts a holistic vision for worship as continuous outpouring in all settings and contexts. With careful exposition and eloquent analysis, Best addresses popular misunderstandings about the use of music and offers correctives toward a more biblically consistent practice of artistic action.

Incisive, provocative, profound and comprehensive, Best's landmark volume is one by which all other statements on worship and the arts will be measured.

About the Author
Harold M. Best was for many years the dean of the Conservatory of Music at Wheaton College. An organist and composer, he has been a mentor and model for musicians, artists and church leaders. He has also served as president of the National Association of Schools of Music and has written extensively on matters of curriculum, culture and educational policy issues. He is the author of Music Through the Eyes of Faith.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Book on Worship, August 2, 2008
While it is an effort to worth through the first few chapters, the gold mine of discussion on the real meaning and purpose of worship is well worth the effort. I highly recommend this book to anyone wanting to live a life in worship of the Almighty God.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Great Theology of Worship, June 11, 2009
I picked up this book because it was recommended by Tim Smith, worship pastor at Seattle's Mars Hill Church. Best writes on a scholarly level, carefully expounding his points, so this is not a book one wants to blaze through. It needs to be chewed slowly and digested. What's here, though, is sensational. Kudos to the team at IVP for publishing this and a number of other great books like Know the Truth.

The middle section, in which Best treats on worship and the arts, is perhaps the best. Highly recommended.
