Five good reasons to buy this book
Content of Book

​Book explores issues of unity and spiritual maturity related to the songs we sing
(Paperback, hardcover and ebook versions available - ALSO IN RUSSIAN.  
For purchase in Russia click here.                 For Ukraine click here)
The way that we worship becomes the way that we believe, which in turn becomes the way that we think, interact and feel. 
This book explores the relationship between maturity, unity and Paul's familiar song triad of psalms, hymns and spiritual songs and makes the bold claim that worship can lead to unity rather than conflict and division. The lens through which the practice of worship is viewed is radically changed as this triad is linked with other scriptural triads.  Practical strategies and study questions at the end of each chapter make this book an essential individual or small group resource.
 
 - “This important new resource draws on a rich array of biblical and musical scholarship to articulate a theology of music that is true to scripture, rooted in history, and contextually relevant—a breath of fresh air in the realm of worship studies!” — Dr. Vernon J. Charter, Professor Emeritus (Music & Worship Arts), Prairie 

“The author hopes for nothing short of a revolution in the personal, corporate and worship lives of Christians.” -- Rev. Ron Man, Worship Resources International, author of Proclamation and Praise

“This book is a challenge to the contemporary church to move beyond simple entertainment and programming to growth and maturity.” -- Dr. Stephen Benham, Associate Professor of Music Education, Duquesne University
