We occasionally ponder "What's the purpose of my life?", "Is God pleased with me?", "How can I worship God acceptably?", "Can I worship God if I can't sing?". The Bible says we've been created to glorify God and do so in all we do, but how does an ordinary workaday Christian bring glory to God? Kevin Brownlee has spent nearly 30 years researching those questions and has settled on 16 simple biblical words that answer, "How to glorify God" and define "Acceptable worship." Much more than a "how-to" book, its down-to-earth, easy to read style enlivens you with delightful stories and practical applications to your daily life. These "sweet 16" words will transform you to an abundant life of purpose, glory to God, and true worship that's well pleasing to Him! This book will also answer: How to pray so God listens. How to love your neighbor as yourself. How to increase your faith. Why God allows suffering. How to regain or maintain your integrity. How much to give to the church. How to study and even teach the Bible. All for God's glory!
