Editor D A Carson-- This is not a comprehensive theology of worship, writes Carson. Still less is it a sociological analysis of current trends or a minister’s manual chockfull of ‘how to’ instructions.

Rather, this book offers pastors, other congregational leaders, and seminary students a thought-provoking biblical theology of worship, followed by a look at how three very different traditions of churchmanship might move from this theological base to a better understanding of corporate worship.

Running the gamut from biblical theology to historical assessment all the way to sample service sheets, Worship by the Book shows how local churches in diverse traditions can foster corporate worship that is God-honoring, Word-revering, heartfelt, and historically and culturally informed.
