About the Author

Defines the nature of true worship and discusses the key issues surrounding this controversial topic within the church.

With 50,000 copies sold, the first edition of Real Worship helped many pastors and worship leaders make biblical sense in the controversy surrounding worship and worship styles. This second edition contains new chapters on taking worship seriously, planning balanced worship, and tradition in worship. A question-and-answer section, a bibliography, and a Scripture index have also been added. While many books deal with how to worship, they fail to give a definition of true worship. Warren Wiersbe defines what worship is and the four elements it involves: wonder, witness, warfare, and wisdom. As he discusses such controversial issues as art, liturgy, worship styles, and music, Wiersbe keeps the focus on God and demonstrates the balance of worship for which every church should strive. Real Worship is both biblically based and autobiographical, containing personal testimony, anecdotes, and illustrations from Wiersbe's pastoral experience. The first edition of this book was published by Thomas Nelson in 1986.

Warren W. Wiersbe is Distinguished Professor of Preaching at Grand Rapids Baptist Seminary and is former pastor of Chicago's historic Moody Church. He served as general director and Bible teacher at Back to the Bible and is the author of more than one hundred books.
