Laying a new foundation for understanding worship, the book makes a compelling case for distinguishing the church's practices from those of the world. Recognizing the holiness of worship, the author observes that music itself, apart from language, conveys its own theological meaning; that, similar to Scripture, there is an evolving canon of sacred music; and that, to mitigate idolatry, the spirit of worship must be tested to ensure that it addresses the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. When this timeless liturgical journey with God is honored with vital commitment, worship will be compelling and transfiguring to all people, at all levels of religious experience. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Music|xReligious aspects|xChristianity.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85088819 650 0 Liturgics.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85077732 650 7 Music|xReligious aspects|xChristianity.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1030426 650 7 Liturgics.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1000579 655 4 Electronic books. 776 08 |iPrint version:|aDarsey, Steven F.|tGod of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob|z9781620327302|w(OCoLC)856567312 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=834082|zOnline eBook.
