Joy in Worship explains Christian worship from an evangelical perspective. The centrality of the Word of the God is prominent throughout the book. Although there are many scriptural references, the exposition of the Psalms of Ascent (Psalms 120-134) is unique. They show the passions and reality of the life of the worshipper. You will be drawn in to the worship experience of the Old Testament worshippers. You will feel their sorrow in the valley and their joy on the mountain. Behold the wonder of worshipping in unity with those of like precious faith.
Joy in Worship Understanding Worship According to the Word of God edition by James Vickery Religion Spirituality eBooks
An excellent book for laymen wanting a greater understanding of why we were created. It follows the Psalms of Ascent as a pattern of preparing for worship. The book identifies the importance of the responsibilities of the worshiper, the practices that are acceptable and not acceptable. It is not about music, but conditioning the worshiper to exalt the name of the Lord individually and corporately.Product details

Joy in Worship Understanding Worship According to the Word of God edition by James Vickery Religion Spirituality eBooks Reviews
Thought provoking and concise, this is an excellent resource to gain a great understanding about worship. You'll be surprised by what you thought was pure worship and what isn't! I recommend this book for both layman and professional. This would be an excellent small group study!
One of the aspects that I learned from reading this book is the synergistic benefit of corporate worship. When we assemble to worship, we become an assembly of people worshiping God. An assembly is different from a collection or group, because generally it is comprised of different components with specific functions or merits, all working together to provide a result not achievable by single components.
Thanks to Pastor Vickery, I now better understand the purpose and joy in worship.
Many will recognize this as the age-old discussion of the Regulative Principle of worship--that the Bible alone should inform the way in which we seek to worship God. This is a book that is more about the heart of worship rather than the type of instruments and songs used in worship. What I most appreciated is that Pastor Vickery rarely refers to this explosive hand grenade and instead allows the Word of God to do the speaking. In effect, he lets your argument be with the Lord and not with him.
Furthermore, you will not be able to read this book without a Bible. While it would be nice to have the passages, specifically, the various Psalms used at the beginning of each chapter, right there within the pages of the book, it is nice to have to crack open your Bible. After all, his argument is that our theology and practice of worship ought to be informed by Holy Writ.
Finally, when Pastor Vickery "lays the smackdown" on current trends in worship, he does so based upon the authority of the Bible. He never crosses the boundary of going further than what Scripture says. You will find that your arguments are not against Pastor Vickery's interpretation, rather, you must argue against the clear teaching of the Bible.
Read this book and be challenged. Purchase this book for your pastor and offer it to him. Do so, however, in a loving manner. The modern church has allowed for much of the world to inform what she does and many pastors and church leaders have not really discussed or critically thought about what they are doing each Lord's Day. Joy in Worship will be a catalyst to open up those all-important lines of communication and, Lord willing, bring about a revival in worship on Sunday mornings.
