Worship: the Christian’s Greatest Occupation

In his own inimitable way, the author proceeds in an orderly and cumulative fashion. His homiletic gift is evident and most helpful to the reader. The book is marked by clarity of thought and expression, made more forceful by vivid figures of speech and graphic illustrations.


The reader is soon aware of the fact that worship is not a subject which can be developed and dismissed with a paragraph, but, instead, is impressed with the vastness and importance of the theme. Basic facts on the subject are drawn from both old and New Testaments. Practical applications and responsibilities are made clear and inescapable. 


The truth concerning worship is faithfully presented and false theories and practices are mercilessly exposed, frequently by the apt use of sanctified iron.


The chapters which deal with the worshipper, his privileges and perils, the things to be sought and the things to avoid, the preparation of the hear and mind for true worship. 


The description of the worship of the wise men is a spiritual classic, and might well be printed in pamphlet form for wider distribution.


Certain adult Bible classes would find this volume suitable for a text book for a series of studies on worship. Elder brethren would tender a great service by circulating copies among those young in

the faith.


We hope and pray that the book may have the wide reading which it merits, and that it may be used of God in leading many into an appreciation and practice of “the highest occupation of the Christian.”
