Let the Nations be Glad


Book Description

'Mission is not the ultimate goal of the church. Worship is. Missions exist because worship doesn't. Worship is ultimate.' John Piper's contemporary classic draws on key biblical texts to demonstrate that worship is the ultimate goal of the church and that proper worship fuels missionary outreach. Piper offers a biblical defence of God's supremacy in all things, providing a sound theological foundation for missions. He examines whether Jesus is the only way to salvation and issues a passionate plea for God-centredness in the missionary enterprise, seeking to define the scope of the task and the means for reaching 'all nations'. Let the Nations Be Glad! is a trusted resource for missionaries, pastors, church leaders, youth workers, seminary students, and all who want to connect their labours to God's global purposes. This third edition has been revised and expanded throughout and includes new material on the 'prosperity gospel'.







Will the Dust Praise You?


Book Description

I cried to you, O Lord; I pleaded with the Lord, saying, "What profit is there in my blood, if I go down to the Pit? will the dust praise you or declare your faithfulness? Hear, O Lord, and have mercy upon me; O Lord, be my helper." You have turned my wailing into dancing; you have put off my sack-cloth and clothed me with joy. Therefore my heart sings to you without ceasing; O Lord my God, I will give you thanks for ever. -Psalm 30:9-13 Just as the plea of the psalmist is resolved with hope-filled praise for the Creator, so the eye-witnesses to 9/11 in Will the Dust Praise You? move from stunned disbelief to hopeful action. Their stories recount the halting but steady movement toward healing and reconciliation. Along with its companion DVD, Revelations from Ground Zero: Spiritual Responses to 9/11, the book is part of a joint project sponsored by the Church Pension Fund, Church Publishing, the Episcopal Diocese of New York, the New-York Historical Society, and Trinity Church Wall Street.







Praise & Honor


Book Description

That is what hymns are: sermons full of Christ. Stanza by stanza, hymns bring Christ to you. They supplement Scripture readings, support the sermon, comfort you, and join you with fellow worshipers. The purpose of hymns is to praise God by proclaiming the saving work of His Son. The fourteen hymns in this volume mark milestones in the life of every Christian-Baptism and the Lord's Supper, Christmas and Easter, for instance. Some will be familiar to every reader while others will be new, but all are packed with meaning. Each hymn is introduced with a short reading that will deepen your understanding of the hymn and its purpose. Then, each following devotion focuses on one stanza of the hymn, connects to Scripture, and points to life application. May these devotions further your appreciation for the rich hymnody of the Church and point you to the Lord of Life. "Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom, singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, with thankfulness in your hearts to God" (Colossians 3:16).
