For All God's Worth: True Worship and the Calling of the Church

Many Christians do not fully understand what worship means. This insightful book by N. T. Wright explores both the meaning and the results of worship.Part 1, The God Who Is Worthy of Praise, focuses on God and on what worshiping God actually means. Wright celebrates the greatness and love of God as the ground and reason for worship and shows how reflection on who God actually is leads to true worship from both the heart and the mind. Part 2, Reflecting God's Image in the World, addresses a range of church-related issues that arise from the activity of worship. Since worship can never remain isolated from the task of the church, Wright here explores how true worship leads to the mission of the church in various specific ways.Based firmly on sensitive and creative readings of the biblical text, For All God's Worth is an inspiring call for renewal in the worship and witness of today's church."
