- Genre: Christianity
Tozer on Worship and Entertainment are excerpts from the writings
and sermons of A.W. Tozer. A.W. Tozer continually points out that we are saved
to worship God. All that Christ has done for us in the past and all that He
is doing now leads to this one end. A.W. Tozer had strong convictions about
the subject of worship as well as its corruption by what he referred to as the Great
God of Entertainment." The excerpts in this book were carefully selected to
give you a clear picture of his thoughts on both topics. Part one is the well-known
sermon by A.W. Tozer "The Act of Worship"' that then leads to various topics of
discussion broken down by these chapters:
WorshipUnacceptable
WorshipSpiritual ConcentrationThe Presence of GodThe
Power of GodPersonal CommunionAdorationHymnsEntertainmentEvangelical
HeresyPropagandaAn Outward ShiftModern EvangelismReligious
ActivityWorldliness
Also included are Tozer's controversial
essay, "The Menace of the Religious Movie," written in the mid-1950s. You might
not agree with Tozer but as always he "draws a line in the sand" and causes the
reader to think critically about a subject that even today many Christians struggle
with in the daily societal norms and what is acceptable and unacceptable in our
daily Christian walk.
