Description:With the onslaught of books on how to do worship, Dr. David Adams' conversational book, Lifestyle Worship, is a breath of fresh air. Highlighting the current concept of worship, Dr. Adams explains the contrast and similarities of biblical worship within our contemporary definition of worship. Sprinkled with humor, Lifestyle Worship gets to the heart of what true worship is and offers practical suggestions to deepen your walk with God. With years of research behind him, Dr. Adams is quickly garnering attention as one of the leading authorities on worship and cultural theology.Endorsements:These well-researched thoughts will challenge everyone who exposes themselves to them. These counter-cultural thoughts will deepen and enhance anyone's understanding of worship. Truly, if we as a post-modern church could return to some of these core tenets in whole life worship, I truly believe we would revolutionize our present history and leave a firm imprint of Christ lived out in our communities.- from the Foreword by Margaret BeckerGrammy nominee and four-time Dove Award winnerNo excuses! This book reminds us that our intertwined relationship with our Lord and Savior is what we alone make of it. As 'God is longing to reach out and speak to us,' author Dr. David Adams lays out our God-given longing to do the same. If you're ready to lead a lifestyle of worship, let God and David take you there and reap the rewards. ØSherri L. FoardeOffice AdministratorThis book will encourage you to discipline yourself to have daily fellowship with Jesus.ØMadelyn KlineHomemakerAs a friend, I have seen the author David Adams face great tragedy. I myself have faced suicides, murder, and untimely death in my own immediate family. In this book, David brings us 'home' to that place of stillness that we find through true worship. In that place with God, we see life with its tragedies and joys from a perspective found by looking through the eyes of a compassionate Savior. Reading this book will truly change your life.-Jeff FellmanFoster Care SpecialistLifestyle Worship brings us back to the core of what God created us for. The God of the universe wants to have an intimate relationship with us and it can only take place in that one-on-one time of exploring who He is. It is evident that Dr. Adams loves God and longs to see the church stop, re-evaluate their 'programmed' services, and return to what the early church modeled for all of us as believers. I have been personally challenged as a Christ follower and as a worship leader. This book needs to be read by leaders and lay pastors if their desire is truly to see God move powerfully in the church. -Melanie MadridMusic Teacher and Worship leaderAbout the Contributor(s):David Adams, PhD Theology, is the founder of TADA Ministry, and Pastor of Experience Fellowship in Chandler, Arizona.
