Worship: It's Not Just Sunday Morning
Overview
An exposition of the basic principles of worship. This concise book communicates the principle that every aspect of life is worship, thereby giving beauty and significance to all, including the commonplace things in life.
Morey writes in the introduction, "[W]e need to develop a balanced approach to worship. We need an approach that is holistic, that is, it takes into account all the biblical data and applies it to all of life. To this end this study is set forth, not as an exhaustive exposition of all there is to know about worship, but as an exposition of the basic principles of biblical worship."
Top Highlights
“Every act of obedience to God in thought, word or deed is worship.” (Page 15)
“What is godliness? Biblical godliness is that consistent, habitual, careful and cautious piety that concerns itself with living in harmony with God and man and avoiding anything which destroys that harmony.” (Page 18)
“In this light, Christians must realize that they cannot relegate or isolate worship to the 11:00 A.M. hour on Sundays. We are to live a life of worship 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Our entire life with all of its activities brings either glory or disgrace to the God we love.” (Page 15)
“The real reason why so many professing Christians fail to enter into public worship, lead their families in worship or maintain their own private worship is that they are basically without God in their everyday character.” (Page 22)
“Prayer is a sincere, heartfelt outpouring of our souls to God through Christ by the Spirit to present praise, thanksgiving, our needs or the needs of others.” (Page 31)
