Book Description
An exhaustive study of what the Old Testament says about worship renewal, including its form, function, place, and expression. Includes illustrations. As worship leaders struggle to keep (or make) worship alive and meaningful, they are compelled to study the biblical teaching on the subject. They could do no better than turn to Andrew Hill's robust contribution. Hill contends that the Old Testament has much to teach New Testament believers about worship--by theological principle if not by explicit example and direct application. With exceptional care and thoroughness, Hill explores the multifaceted aspects related to worship in the Old Testament. These include worship's form and function, place and piety, arts and actions. In a review in Presbyterion, Robert Yarbrough of Trinity Evangelical Divinity School had this to say about the author's study: "Hill provides solid review of Old Testament history as it relates to development of worship views and styles. He interweaves questions, concerns, and insights, however, that are distinctly modern, making his book engrossing rather than dry reading." This book, explains Hill, should be regarded as one ingredient necessary to concoct a serum for worship renewal in the church. Indeed, the Old Testament has much to teach us about worship. While the needs of individual churches differ, all approaches to worship renewal must be comprehensive enough to consider the biblical, historical, and theological sources of Christian worship.

Enter His Courts With Praise

Pages : 288
Book Description
Sunday after Sunday in churches across America, Christians flip past the first thousand pages of their Bibles to read, study, and teach from the New Testament. To many, the Old Testament is confusing and, at times, even disturbing. What relevance could these ancient customs have in our modern world? It seems that we have forgotten that the God we worship today, the God who sent his Son, Jesus Christ, to grant eternal life, is also the God of Abraham, Moses, and David. Throughout the Old Testament, God reveals himself directly and dramatically, offering insight into his character and his will. To better understand God and our relationship with him, we must overcome our prejudices and learn to incorporate Old Testament models into our modern faith. Worship is a prime area of Old Testament "deficiency." As modern Christians, we have lost touch with our Judaic roots, abandoning the models of worship established by the ancient Hebrews in response to the commands of God. A better understanding of the Old Testament in general can bring fullness to our relationship with God. More specifically, we can find greater meaning and relevance in our modern worship experience by applying this understanding of the Old Testament. In this fascinating book, Old Testament scholar Andrew Hill offers a thorough Old Testament perspective on the subject of worship, presenting the basics of ancient Hebrew worship in a way that can be easily understood and applied. The author specifically addresses such subjects as the tabernacle and the temple, the arts and Hebrew worship, and the Hebrew religious calendar. - Back cover.

Book Description
We are living in a time when worship has become a distinct priority for the Christian community. For years, the church has emphasized evangelism, teaching, fellowship, missions, and service while neglecting the very source of its power--worship. "Enter His Courts with Praise, " a course for small-group or individual study, consists of thirteen easy-to-understand sessions. Part One, "Music in Worship, " explores the purpose of music in worship, the way in which musical praise can express our relationship to God, the varieties of psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs, and the role of instruments. Two sessions study contemporary praise music and a worship style that blends this newer music with more traditional forms. Part Two, "The Arts in Worship, " studies the physical and ceremonial settings of worship and the use in worship of drama and dance. A final session encourages reflection on the future of Christian worship.
