The Bible contains sixty-six unique books, all telling one incredible story. In the beginning we were created to worship, but our history is one of worship broken and misplaced. The Worship Problem starts at the beginning and traces the story of worship lost and God's plan to restore it once again through the history of the Old Testament. If you have ever struggled to understand the story of the Bible, or how the Old Testament is relevant in the modern age, The Worship Problem is a book for you. In an age where worship has become synonymous with musical style and form, The Worship Problem seeks to take the reader back to the heart of what worship was always truly meant to be... a story of surrender and sacrifice. "Take time to consume this book from my brother in Christ Chuck Hooten. You will never see worship the same way again." Rick Burgess - Co Host of The Rick and Bubba Show, Speaker and Author "Chuck is deeply committed to the gospel narrative from beginning to end and in his new book, "The Worship Problem," he chronicles with humility and awe the circuitous Old Testament path of God's people that ranges from devotion to disdain and flows from The Garden of Eden to the Cross." Michael Adler - Worship Pastor, Author, Speaker "Chuck delves deeply into Scripture and unearths the gospel narrative that drives at the heart of worship in his book. He manages to pack a theological punch without meandering into the heady impractical effectively through meaningful personal experiences and memorable illustrations. If you want a biblical approach to worship that will also stir your affections, get this book." Bobby Smith - Worship Pastor, Artist, Creator "I am incredibly thankful for Chuck and his dedication to growing and practicing as a worshipper. His unwavering hope in the gospel has continually inspired me as a husband, father, and friend." Curtis Zachary - Author of "Soul Rest", Speaker, Pastor "We all worship-all the time. The question is, do we worship the right things the right way? For many years Chuck Hooten has led people to understand and focus their worship. Now, in The Worship Problem, he has given all of us a resource helping us understand the why, when, and who our affection and worship should belong to. J. Roger Davis - President YM360

In Story-Shaped Worship Robbie Castleman attempts nothing less than to uncover the fundamental shape of worship. Right worship doesn't require a traditionalist return to earlier forms of church, she argues, but a fresh response to God in light of the revealed patterns of worship we find in the Bible and church history.

Nothing is more important than worship. It is the theme of Scripture, the theme of eternity, and the theme of redemptive history— to worship the true and living and glorious God is the purpose of all creation. So why do we treat it as only what is sung or played in church on Sunday morning? Pastor John MacArthur leads you through Scripture texts about true worship. You will learn that worship is any essential expression of service rendered unto God by a soul that loves and extols Him for who He is. Worship is the nonstop role of believers, not merely part of a church service. So get ready to alter your priorities, aiming higher than entertaining worshipers on Sunday mornings. Worship shows that your ultimate priority must always be to worship the true and living God, with a radically different type of living.

Sacred Pathways reveals nine distinct spiritual temperaments--and their strengths, weaknesses, and tendencies--to help you improve your spiritual life and deepen your personal walk with God. It's time to strip away the frustration of a one-size-fits-all spirituality and discover a path of worship that frees you to be you. Experienced spiritual directors, pastors, and church leaders recognize that all of us engage with God differently, and it's about time we do too. In this updated and expanded edition of Sacred Pathways, Gary Thomas details nine spiritual temperaments and--like the Enneagram and other tools do with personality--encourages you to investigate the ways you most naturally express yourself in your relationship with God. He encourages you to dig into the traits, strengths, and pitfalls in your devotional approach so you can eliminate the barriers that keep you locked into rigid methods of worship and praise. Plus, as you begin to identify and understand your own temperament, you'll soon learn about the temperaments that aren't necessarily "you" but that may help you understand the spiritual tendencies of friends, family, and others around you. Whatever temperament or blend of temperaments best describes you, rest assured it's not by accident. It's by the design of a Creator who knew what he was doing when he made you according to his own unique intentions. If your spiritual walk is not what you'd like it to be, you can change that, starting here. Sacred Pathways will show you the route you were made to travel, marked by growth and filled with the riches of a close walk with God. A Sacred Pathways video Bible study is also available for group or individual use, sold separately.

Modern worship leaders are restless. They have inherited a model of leadership that equates leading worship with being a rock star. But leading worship is more than a performance, it's about shaping souls and making disciples. Every worship leader is really a pastor. The Worship Pastor is a practical and biblical introduction to this essential pastoral role. Filled with engaging, illustrative stories it is organized to address questions of theory and practice, striving to balance conversational accessibility with informed instruction. Part One presents a series of evocative "vignettes"--intriguing and descriptive titles and metaphors of who a Worship Pastor is and what he or she does. It shows the Worship Pastor as Church-Lover, Disciple Maker, Corporate Mystic, and Doxological Philosopher. Part Two covers specific roles related to ministry within the worship service itself--the Worship Pastor as Theological Dietician, Caregiver, Mortician, Emotional Shepherd, War General, Prophetic Guardian, Missional Historian, and Liturgical Architect. Part Three looks at ministry beyond the worship service--the Worship Pastor as Visionary Teacher, Evangelist, Artist Chaplain, and Team Leader. While some worship leaders are eager to embrace their pastoral role, many are lost and confused or lack the resources of time or money to figure out what this role looks like. Pastor Zac Hicks gives us a clear guide to leading worship, one that takes the pastoral call seriously.
