Book Description
An intimate look at movie star Steve McQueen's reckless life of fast cars, women, and drugs all the way up to his dramatic life-change and terminal cancer diagnosis. Join Greg Laurie as he takes a cross-country drive in his 1968 Highland Green Ford Mustang 390 GT through the canyons of Malibu, the alleys of Hollywood, the wide and open roads of the Midwest, and the streets of New York as he traces the woolly geography of actor Steve McQueen's life, relationships, career, and spiritual journey. This iconic muscle car was the vehicle McQueen drove in his most raucous and enduring film, Bullitt. In the 1960s, McQueen was, according to box office receipts, the biggest movie star of his generation and one of the coolest men to ever walk the planet. Greg Laurie was a teen at the time and an ardent fan of "The King of Cool," first mesmerized by McQueen in 1963's The Great Escape. Like millions of cinema fans, Greg developed a lifelong fascination with the actor. Now he has a chance to tell McQueen's story. McQueen was a complex, contradictory man who lived the same way he drove his motorcycles and cars: fearlessly, ruthlessly, and at top speed. After a lifetime of fast cars, women, and drugs, McQueen took a surprising detour. In this book, Laurie thoughtfully interviews Steve McQueen's friends, co-stars, associates, widow, and pastor to tell of the dramatic life-change for the actor in the spring of 1979--six months before McQueen was diagnosed with terminal cancer. What were the critical steps that led McQueen to make such a life-altering decision? Perhaps more importantly, why is that part of his story so rarely told? This book answers these questions. Greg Laurie will follow the seeds of Christianity that were sown throughout McQueen's improbable life where a Light finally shone into the darkness of his troubled life. These seeds miraculously germinated, allowing McQueen to see that redemption through Jesus Christ is a lasting truth more glittering and real than any magic of the entertainment industry.

Book Description
This version of Book I of Worship Jesus in Song is for the worshippers or congregation in a church, and as a simple, compact version of the book for guitarists or anyone else who uses chords to play the songs. Many of these songs are settings of passages from the Bible. Some of them are rounds, most of the songs will be easily singable by anyone, a few of them are complicated and only a worship team or choir that practices regularly will be able to sing them. (For more detailed instructions, refer to introduction in the Choir and Accompaniment book, or the SA(A) book.) There are sad songs as well as happy ones. In fact, the Bible contains many sad psalms, laments, and passages expressing grief as well as consolation, and Christian worship ought to acknowledge the full range of human emotions: while joy is the predominant note in the New Testament, even Paul acknowledges that the Christian life is not always a 'bed of roses' in 2 Corinthians 1:8, "We do not want you to be uninformed, brothers and sisters, about the troubles we experienced in the province of Asia. We were under great pressure, far beyond our ability to endure, so that we despaired of life itself." But every sad psalm in the Bible also contains some element of comfort, so also with these. But the predominant note is joy and thankfulness, in the hope all share who believe in the resurrection of Jesus Christ, and our own future resurrection when the new heavens and the new earth come to be.
