From the publisher
Discover the depth, beauty, and enduring power of historic Reformed worship. In The Worship of the Reformed Church, esteemed pastor and scholar Terry L. Johnson presents a comprehensive, compelling case for recovering the biblical, theological, and historical foundations of Reformed worship in our contemporary age.
With clarity and conviction, Johnson demonstrates how Scripture-saturated, God-centered, gospel-structured worship not only shaped centuries of Christian piety but remains essential for the church today. Blending biblical exposition, historical insight, and pastoral wisdom, this substantial volume is a guide to worship that is ordered by the word and directed to the glory of God.
Description adapted from the publisher, Christian Focus (Mentor).
The Picky Reader note: Nearly seven hundred pages on why historic Reformed worship looks the way it does: saturated with Scripture, centered on God, and shaped by the gospel. Johnson argues that this kind of worship still forms disciples better than services built to entertain. He has pastored one congregation for decades, and this book is the argument behind that practice.
