Description:
If worship is God centered, and God is the Trinity, then worship should be Trinity centered. Worshipping Trinity explores the meaning and implications of that simple claim. Written for church leaders, worship leaders, and songwriters, as well as for those interested in theology, this volume explains why the Trinity matters so much and explores practical ways our worship can be made more Trinitarian. This second edition is fully updated and expanded. ""The book has become a classic--and rightly so. There is nothing else like it. It brings first-rate theology and astute practical wisdom to the very heart of the church's life. And the second edition is even better than the first!"" --Jeremy Begbie, Duke Divinity School ""Robin Parry is a fine theologian who writes accessibly and engagingly. I hope this second edition will be very widely read. It has the capacity to enable the renewal of the life and worship of the church."" --John Inge, Bishop of Worcester, UK Praise for the First Edition: ""This is an extremely helpful book!"" --Matt Redman, songwriter and worship leader ""Robin Parry has given us a terrific resource with which we can see a clearer picture of the God we worship."" --Keith Getty, hymn writer ""Robin Parry calls us higher up and further in through this well-written, clear, and important book."" --Brian McLaren, pastor and author ""Not merely theologically profound, but lucid, accessible, and profoundly relevant."" --Alan J. Torrance, University of St. Andrews, UK ""This is a most important book."" --Graham Cray, Bishop of Maidstone, UK ""I found my own spirit was stirred by simply reading the excellent central chapters. . . . This is a book well worth reading and one I wholeheartedly recommend."" --Terry Virgo, New Frontiers, UK ""Bloody good!"" --Andrew G. Walker, King's College, UK ""I cannot recommend this work highly enough. Pastors, worship leaders, and mature Christians must read this and practice the sort of Trinitarian worship Parry recommends."" --Myk Habets, Carey Baptist College, New Zealand Robin Parry is an editor for Wipf and Stock Publishers.
